Smooth And Sleek
An irresistible addition to your swimming pool cover portfolio, the Glide from Ocea is a high-quality pool cover that puts safety and security first without compromising on quality, design or reliability. Fast and easy to open and close, the Glide is an essential part of any home pool to give added peace of mind. The Glide is offered in a wide variety of colour options to complement every pool environment. A choice of installation options are available to suit all shapes and sizes of pools both indoor and out. Available with turnkey design to installation support from the unrivalled Ocea stable. Michael Witney, Sales Executive at Ocea comments: “With ‘Glide’ now available the choice of safety covers in the market will only benefit the trade and end users. Aside from the aesthetic benefits of a slatted cover, I would say that both types are now generally on par in terms of cost dependent on design.”
brackets so the floor tiles could continue across the cover pit,” explains Lee.
“The Certikin engineers were even able to reverse the boom, so it was set lower across the pool and therefore hidden when the cover was off the pool. Once the pool was filled, the Coverstar was installed and the system commissioned.”
RAISING THE BAR
Plastica are now in their fourth year of manufacturing their own bar safety cover – the Poolsaver. By producing the cover themselves in the UK, Plastica have much more control over quality and detail, and clients benefit from the shortest lead times. “We recently carried out a Poolsaver installation for a pool owner who needed to protect his young children and pets from falling in a very deep swimming pool,” comments Steve Smith of Plastica. “The Poolsaver withstands the specific and rigorous AFNOR safety tests and the client was very reassured with its strength and quality.” The Poolsaver is versatile and suits most pool types and comes in four colour options.

In terms of lifespan, Michael advises that it generally depends on how well the cover is looked after and maintained: “You will always get wear and tear on certain parts of the cover, which is why we offer a two to three year warranty on parts. Aside from that, the actual material should last longer if it’s properly cared for.”
debris too and there are manual and motorised options available. Says Steve: “Due to being British-made, we avoid the ever- increasing carriage charges imposed when sourcing from the continent - it keeps us very competitive in the industry. “We aim to complete each cover - from order to dispatch - in ten working days and at only £37.50 psm (retail + VAT) - that’s almost half the price of equally spec’d systems available on the market.” Steve adds: “We also give the option of installation on every quotation, however, the simplicity of the design allows installation to be carried out by our trade customers.”
UNDER COVER For 2017, Plastica have redesigned a range of safety covers for above ground wooden pools. With the highest quality fittings and clever design, the Wooden Poolsaver provides value for money and peace of mind. “At its core, a pool safety cover enhances the safety of a pool – whether it’s in a domestic or public setting,” says Shaun Adams, Director at Golden Coast.
