}}Splash About International Limited, usually referred to as Splash About, is best known as a designer, manufacturer and retailer of swimwear and swimming aids for children and babies, however the company also designs and makes maternity swimsuits. It operates from the United Kingdom[1]

History

Splash About was founded by Desri and Robin Goodwin in 2001 with their first creations, a float jacket and a float suit.[1]

The company is best known for developing the Happy Nappy system (in Britain, a nappy is a diaper), which comprises waterproof neoprene outer layers with leak-restricting grip and an inner absorbent layer.[2] The idea is to allow babies to swim without contaminating the pool.

In 2011, Warrington-based private equity firm Energize Capital acquired a majority stake in the company.[3]

Work with the ASA and BSI

In 2014 Splash About announced that it was working alongside the Amateur Swimming Association and Water Babies to create a new British Standard for baby and Toddler Swimming.[4]

In September 2015, the company was one of the sponsors of the BSI Group's Publicly Available Specification "Safeguarding 0 to 4 year old children within the teaching of swimming, including any associated professional photography. Code of practice" (PAS 520:2015), which aims "to tackle codifying best practice in how very young children should be taught to swim and professionally photographed during lessons."[5]

Media

In 2015 US singer Beyoncé released a vacation video on Instagram in which her daughter Blue Ivy was wearing one of Splash About's float suits.[6]
