Zhengzhou Yinji Kaifeng Waterpark order of WhiteWater products is largest single order in waterpark history
HENAN, China — Yinji Dynasty’s Zhengzhou Yinji Kaifeng Waterpark in Henan, China, has purchased in excess of $CAN 29-million worth of WhiteWater products, the largest-ever single order for the global waterpark sector. The colossal waterpark boasts an indoor and outdoor portion, and anticipates a peak day capacity of 15,000 guests indoors and 32,000 outdoors. Guests can expect to see nine separate waterslide complexes, 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.
“This is a remarkable project for WhiteWater,” says Geoff Chutter, the company’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.”
Estimated to finish in summer 2015, Zhengzhou Yinji Kaifeng Waterpark will be China’s largest waterpark.
“This deal demonstrates how WhiteWater doesn’t just provide waterslides. We deliver a complete customer experience,” says 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.”
