1. Debut at IBS

Latham Group is exhibiting for the first time at the 2026 NAHB International Builders’ Show to commemorate its 70th anniversary. The company is presenting its full product portfolio at Booth S6119 and in the Virtual Concept Home by NewHomeSource, highlighting next-generation plunge pools, spas, vinyl liners and autocovers.

2. Homebuilder Preferred Partnership Program

Latham introduced the Homebuilder Preferred Partnership Program and Model Home Pilot program to support builders with integrated sales training, design center integration, model homes, Parade of Homes participation and installation support.

4. Ultra-Seam Liners and Vinyl Innovations

Latham expanded its Ultra-Seam technology to pool walls, producing over one million virtually seamless vinyl liners to date for enhanced aesthetics and strength. The company also refreshed its Borderless, Traditional and TrueStone liner collections with new marble, sandstone and destination-inspired patterns, and introduced 92″ vinyl spa liners for compact installations.
