Maytronics Fusion 2026: Celebrating Partnership, Innovation and Excellence in Palawan

The stunning island of Palawan, Philippines, provided the perfect backdrop for Maytronics Australia's annual Fusion Conference, bringing together our valued Elite Dealers, Elite Builders, Focus dealers, partners and team members for several unforgettable days of learning, collaboration and celebration. 

Fusion continues to be one of the highlights of the Maytronics calendar, providing an opportunity to strengthen relationships, share the latest innovations across our brands, and recognise the outstanding achievements of our dealer network. This year's conference combined insightful business sessions, product updates, networking opportunities and memorable experiences, all set against one of the world's most breathtaking destinations. 

Connecting Our Network 

Throughout the conference, attendees gained valuable insights into the future of the pool industry, explored new business opportunities, and learned about upcoming innovations across the Maytronics, Focus and Ecoclear brands.  

More importantly, Fusion reinforced what makes our network so successful, the partnerships we've built together. The conference created countless opportunities for dealers, builders and suppliers from across Australia to connect, exchange ideas and celebrate the collective success of our industry. 

Recognising Excellence 

One of the most anticipated moments of Fusion each year is our Awards Gala, where we celebrate the businesses and individuals who continue to raise the standard across the Australian pool industry.
