About PoolBar™
PoolBar™ is redefining poolside hospitality with the world’s first inflatable luxury swim-up bar — a patented, portable, high-margin asset for resorts, hotels, cruise lines, and luxury residential venues.
Built from militarygrade dropstitch material with a premium matte finish, the PoolBar™ system enables venues to create a “resort within a resort” experience, without planning permission, construction, or downtime. Bars inflate in 15 minutes, allowing hotels to begin generating revenue almost immediately.
Alongside the flagship PoolBar™, the company is launching high-volume inflatable Event Bars — container-optimised products for retail, rental, and distributor markets.
PoolBar™ is raising £250k with SEIS treatment.
