winner of the Euro 2020: Germany – at least in the CF Group prediction contest

The European Championship 2020 is history and Italy could take the trophy home again after more than 50 years. A tip on which only a few bet – like the winner Jörg H. – in the CF Group prediction contest.
With a total of 108 players from 11 different locations, the prediction contest was a funny and exciting common CF Group action. And even though France and Germany were eliminated in the round of 16, we’ve got three winners in those two countries.

  • 1st place: Jörg H. (Köngen, Germany)
  • 2nd place: Clément D. (PIA, France)
  • 3rd place: Damien G. (Brécé, France)

Congratulations to all winners, many thanks to all participants and great compliments to the initiators – we are already looking forward to the World Championship 2022.

Let me introduce: Stotinka

In order to get to know each other better and better within the CF Group, we would like to introduce different companies of the CF group from time to time.

Round #2: Focus on Stotinka

The company was founded in 1993 by Darko Rojs in Slovenska Bistrica (approximately 20 Minutes away from Maribor, Slovenia). At the beginning the focus was on pools and spas, and products for the preparation, water care, cleaning and desinfection were offered.

Today Stotinka is the leading company in the pool industry in Slovenia. With high quality products, professional support and a friendly attitude, they ensure relaxation and well-being all days of the year. The mission of the 21 full-time employees can be summed up in the slogan: “Catch a day in the magical world of water”.

The video will give you a interesing insight of this “old” CF Group Member – in partnership with Chemoform since 1997!

Gold for the technicians

There is no aesthetics without technology and the care in the realization of the technical spaces is as important as the quality of the swimming pools.
That is why every year Carre Bleu, the french premium pool builder network, gives gold awards for the most innovative and best technical realisation of pool technic rooms. The awarded rooms show once more with which passion and how excellent the swimming pool builders in the CF Group work and what is possible with the products of the CF Group.
