A History of Excellence

Natare was formed in 1992, resulting from the division of Recreonics Corporation into two distinct, separately owned companies.

Natare Corporation was established as the continuation of the commercial systems, manufacturing operations, construction technologies, and PVC lining systems (Delifol/Natatec) of the original Recreonics Corporation, while the distribution business become Recreonics, Inc. Natare has been in business under the Recreonics name since its inception.

In 2023, we rebranded our name to Natare Pools to better reflect the full scope of products and services we offer.
