Headquarters
Natare Corporation's newly built headquarters is located on the northwest side of Indianapolis, Indiana. In March 2000, Natare moved into its new facility, which houses executive offices, assembly and production facilities. The new facility features a truck marshaling area, storage, increased office space and a 10-ton crane that travels the length of the building and is accessible to the building's two interior loading docks.
History
Natare installed its first stainless steel pool in 1973 and its first moving bulkhead in 1979 as the Recreonics Corporation.
Recreonics opened in 1969 as a supplier of swimming pool products such as filters, deck equipment, pool chemicals, water slides, inflatables, patio furniture and lifeguard gear.
In 1992, Natare Corporation was formed in order to focus solely on manufacturing and engineering public, competitive and commercial swimming pools.
Natare has been a part of more than 10,000 pool projects all over the world. Natare's equipment and systems are used in all of the 50 states and six of the seven continents.
