Zhengzhou Yinji Kaifeng Waterpark in Henan, China, has made a CA$29m (¥157m, US$25.7m, €20.2m, £16m) order for WhiteWater products – the largest ever single order for the global waterpark sector.
Guests to the Yinji Dynasty’s waterpark will be in line for nine separate waterslide complexes featuring nearly 50 waterslides, three custom themed AquaPlay structures, a Shoot the Chute water ride, three wave pools, two types of Wave Rivers and a FlowRider Double.
Set to open in Q3 2015, Zhengzhou Yinji Kaifeng Waterpark will be the largest waterpark in all of China and will boast both an outdoor and indoor section, which at peak capacity will be able to hold 32,000 and 15,000 respectively.
“This is a remarkable project for WhiteWater,” said Geoff Chutter, WhiteWater’s CEO and founder. “Since 1980, we’ve been committed to creating world-class, entertaining waterparks. Yinji Dynasty’s recent order is a testament to that commitment and to our growth.”
“This deal demonstrates how WhiteWater doesn’t just provide waterslides. We deliver a complete customer experience,” added WhiteWater’s Phil Zhong, regional vice president of operations in Asia. “With this client, we designed an entire park, with engineering services, construction management and after sales service and maintenance.”
