The Association of Pool & Spa Professionals and the Asociación de Profesionales de la Piscina A.C. have announced an international partnership, bringing together two respected organizations committed to the advancement of the pool, spa and hot tub industry.

APSP President and CEO Rich Gottwald and APPAC President Ignacio Barroso signed the historic agreement making a partnership to promote, advance and advocate the interests of the swimming pool, hot tub and spa industry in Mexico.

President Ignacio Barroso. “At Asociación de Profesionales de la Piscina A.C., our passion is to share that view with the world and to inspire people to participate in the industry. We believe we share those values with APSP.”
