For a century, Hayward Industries has manufactured equipment and connected technology that keep residential and commercial pools running, from pumps and filters to automation and water-quality systems. Founded in 1925, the company operates globally from its Charlotte headquarters and maintains four U.S. manufacturing facilities, where more than 3.8 million products were made in 2025. Hayward says 87% of its 2025 sales value came from U.S.-manufactured products, while its Omni systems bring remote control and monitoring to the pool and outdoor-living experience.
