Aluminum sections developed especially for pool enclosures have a wall thickness from 1 to 3 mm, and are anodized or powder-lacquered (according to the RAL scale). The manufacturer (SAPA) is holder of the ISO 9002 certificate. We use 3 types of sections: 38×50, 60×63, 60×80 mm. The longest aluminum sections enable us to make a pool enclosure with a width up to 9 m – the smallest segment. For the largest enclosure structures, we use the Progres or Grande track with a height of 15 – 18 mm. The maximum segment width is 2,450 mm.

Polycarbonate Boards

The structure of the swimming pool enclosure is filled with honeycomb polycarbonate: 10 mm, 8 mm or compact 4 mm panels. We use twin-wall or four-wall honeycomb polycarbonate. The polycarbonate panels cause the so-called greenhouse effect. Sunbeams dispersed in the atmosphere even on overcast days cause heating of the water and air in the closed enclosure. At night or on cold and cloudy days, the water and air cool down slower. The outer surface of all polycarbonate boards is covered in a high-quality UV stabilization layer, which absorbs the effects of harmful UV radiation and prevents impairment, cracking and unwanted color changes in the polycarbonate.

Properties of compact polycarbonate:

Compact 4 mm polycarbonate has much better optical properties than honeycomb polycarbonate. It can be used as the filling for the entire enclosure or for some parts only – e.g. front walls, side walls, etc.
