Medline Industries, LP

In 1925, engineer Irving M. Hayward founded what would become Hayward Industries, starting as a small machine shop focused on specialty metal valves and industrial flow control. Over the past century, the company evolved from humble beginnings into the world's leading manufacturer of residential and commercial pool equipment. Hayward's journey represents a continuous commitment to innovation - transforming from making precision valves to pioneering energy-efficient pumps, smart automation systems, color-changing LED lighting, and sustainable sanitization solutions that redefine the outdoor living experience. Today, Hayward stands at the forefront of pool and outdoor living technology, driven by a mission to build better so customers can backyard better. The company delivers exceptional products, outstanding service, and innovative technology that transform the experience of water. From their global headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina, and operations across the United States, Australia, Canada, China, France, and Spain, Hayward's $1 billion in revenue reflects their position as the #1 products brand among U.S. pool professionals. As Hayward celebrates its 100-year anniversary in 2025, the company continues prioritizing sustainability through energy-efficient products that help pool owners reduce maintenance and energy costs while enjoying their outdoor oases more fully.
