Minimum maintenance
Tact Enviro want you to visualise the scene – water sparkling in the sunshine and children running and laughing around the poolside. However they go on to point out that family pools and pools at schools and holiday parks all have the same problem; how to create an aesthetically pleasing outdoor area without compromising on safety and cleanliness. TactTiles from Tact Enviro provide an anti-slip surface which also remains clean and dry as the water drains away underneath. This modular system is equally at home indoors and out with minimal maintenance. With a range of ‘natural’ colours as well as traditional blue, Tact Tiles have proved to be a durable and safe outdoor surface, especially where children are around. When considering outdoor flooring around the pool, there is a need to be mindful of chemical attack from the pool water. The Tact system seals porous concrete or slabs with a chemical resistant coating and TactTiles are simply laid on top. TactTiles can be used to extend an existing area, unifying a range of substrates. The polypropylene tiles are UV stable and do not allow the growth of bugs and bacteria, providing a safe and comfortable floor for wet bare feet.

Transparently secure
Preedy Glass pool fencing provides a clear and sophisticated barrier to any pool area.
