Swimming Pool Covers - Manual & Automatic Pool Covers


Safety Slatted Covers or Safety Fabric-based Covers, Automatic or Manual, Above Water or Invisible/Recessed, Geometrical or Free form, Residential or Commercial, we always have a solution for your swimming pool project!






Certified Pool Safety – Engineered to Protect What Matters Most


Tested and Certified to withstand 100 kg per m².

Our slatted safety covers are designed and manufactured in compliance with the European NF P 90-308 Pool Safety Standard , ensuring reliable protection for residential and commercial swimming pools.

For full transparency, you can consult the official laboratory certification reports:

Laboratory Test Certificate – Above Water Slatted Safety Cover (PDF)

Laboratory Test Certificate – Submerged Slatted Safety Cover (PDF)

When properly installed and secured, the cover can support a distributed load of up to 100 kg/m², helping to prevent accidental immersion and providing essential protection against the risk of drowning.

Whether you choose a bar cover or an automatic slatted safety cover, your pool is secured with a robust fastening system and reinforced materials engineered for strength and durability.

Important: A safety cover is a critical protection device but does not replace active adult supervision.

With a single action, your pool becomes a secure, compliant and protected space — giving you true peace of mind all year round.





More sustainable and more cost effective pools


Less water used.

Covering a pool means limiting the natural evaporation of its water by up to 95%!
Using an automatic safety cover protects the water and drastically reduces the need to top up during the season.
This can save several cubic metres of water depending on the pool surface area and the frequency of use.
You should know: All our covers are class A or B as per the European NF EN 17645 Pool Environmental Performance Standard Our so-called “solar” models (certain polycarbonate cover slats) contribute to heating the water, thereby making it possible to avoid buying, or to limit the use of, a heat pump.

Energy-efficient automatic pool covers reducing water evaporation



More energy-efficient


The presence of a thermal cover composed of Abriblue 83 mm slats has a significant influence on the pool water temperature and its evaporation.

It maintains the water temperature using the insulation provided by the air layer:
• Water heating by transmission of the sun’s heat (for certain polycarbonate slats).
• Evaporation limited by the cover.
• Stored water temperature kept thanks to the insulation provided by the air blade trapped inside the slats. Save 50% on your utility bill to heat/cool the water

The benefits of some polycarbonate slats:
Available in transparent or smoked finishes, which let underwater pool lights shine through beautifully at night, creating a stunning luxury effect.

As per the NF EN 17645 standard


Abriblue covers are rated "A" or "B" as per the NF EN 17645 standard depending on the model and compliance with the recommended installation and use conditions.
Some of our so-called "solar" slat covers meet the criteria for an A rating.
Calculations show that our covers provide very good heat loss resistance and that they limit evaporation by almost completely covering the water surface.

Systematically rolling out the cover after using the pool reduces evaporation by up to 95%.

Advanced Slat Engineering for Maximum Stability


Ultrasonically welded slats for superior strength.

Our slats are manufactured using ultrasonic welding technology, creating a seamless, high-resistance bond that enhances structural integrity and long-term durability.

This precision welding process ensures optimal watertightness, improved rigidity, and consistent performance even under repeated mechanical stress.

Optional lateral brush systems are available to improve guidance and reduce friction along the pool walls, ensuring smoother operation and enhanced alignment during opening and closing.

For overflow and infinity-edge pools, we integrate dedicated overflow compensation points (see video) dedicated overflow compensation points designed to stabilise the cover and minimise lateral movement. This prevents unwanted shifting of the slats while maintaining perfect positioning across the water surface.

The result: a stable, silent and perfectly aligned safety cover system — engineered for precision, reliability and premium performance.

Bubble Covers


The Solar Thermal cover or Bubble cover, made of polyethylene, a type of durable plastic, is lightweight, flexible, and UV-resistant. Made to measure and therefore adapated to your pool, the solar cover floats on the water. It's formed into a bubble-wrap-like sheet, where the air-filled bubbles provide insulation and help trap solar heat.

The Thermal Solar Cover comes with an aluminium roller axle and a handle made of Stainless Steel or Powder coated Mild Steel.

The Thermal Solar Cover significantly reduces water loss due to evaporation — often by up to 95% — saving on water and reducing the frequency of refills. With less evaporation, you also lose fewer pool chemicals like chlorine, which helps maintain balanced water chemistry and saves on maintenance costs.It helps keep out leaves, insects, and dust, reducing the need for cleaning and filtration.

NF P 90-308 Pool Safety Standard

In an effort to reduce the number of deadly pool accidents each year, French law requires residential swimming pools to be equipped with approved safety protection systems.

The French legislation relating to swimming pools defines four main categories of pool safety systems.

If you are a residential pool owner in France, the following information explains the key principles of the NF P 90-308 safety standard.

What is the content of the NF P 90-308 standard?

To secure and protect your pool, one of the following systems may be used:

The NF P 90-308 standard defines the minimum safety requirements, testing procedures and consumer guidance relating to swimming pool safety covers and their fastening systems designed to prevent drowning risks for children under 5 years old.

Covers intended only to protect the water surface (bubble covers, floating covers, etc.) are excluded from this standard.

To comply with the standard, a safety cover must support the weight of a child walking on it without sinking. The cover must also support an adult weight of 100 kg without damage to the cover or its fastening system.

In addition, the system must withstand the impact of a falling weight of 50 kg without deterioration of the fixation system attached to the pool coping.

Fixation systems must not present any risk of injury for children. To prevent tripping hazards around the pool surround, elements of the fastening system must not protrude more than 25 mm above the pool surface.

All materials used by the pool manufacturer, including anchoring and fastening systems, must comply with applicable French and European regulations.

European NF EN 17645 Environmental Performance Standard

The European NF EN 17645 standard establishes a common framework for evaluating the environmental performance and energy efficiency of domestic outdoor swimming pools and their equipment.

Introduced in 2022, the standard provides a methodology for assessing how efficiently a swimming pool operates in terms of energy consumption, water usage, and environmental impact.

What does the NF EN 17645 standard evaluate?

The standard analyses the environmental efficiency of a pool installation by taking into account several technical components of the pool system.

Based on these criteria, pools and equipment are assigned an environmental performance classification ranging from A (highest efficiency) to F (lowest efficiency). This rating helps pool owners compare technologies and select solutions that reduce energy consumption, water loss and operating costs.

Pool covers play a key role in achieving high environmental performance, as they significantly reduce evaporation and heat loss, helping to limit water consumption and heating energy.

The NF EN 17645 framework therefore promotes more sustainable swimming pool design by encouraging the use of efficient equipment and energy-saving technologies.
