Description

Swim King float in use. Photo caption: The new Plastazote Swim King, manufactured from BXL Plastazote foamed polyethylene, is a highly-effective swimming aid already proved in use with local authorities and swimming clubs. Plastazote's excellent buoyancy and lightweight characteristics are the keys to the effectiveness of this latest swimming aid; Plastazote is a lightweight low density closed cell foamed polyethylene. It is unaffected by the usual swimming pool additives, such as chlorine. Moreover, it is flexible, and does not break up - thus eliminating any problems with filtration units.
