Slat Profile

Ocea’s exclusive sleek and interlocking slat profile gives you an unrivalled veneer finish to your pool. Alongside the supreme design, the 65mm profile is optimally engineered with versatility as a key factor; to both seal your pool surface and maximise the solar potential. 65mm was chosen as the profile width as it is the perfect balance between maximising surface contact for heat retention and the ability to tailor the cover to bespoke shapes and sizes without detracting from the beauty of the pool finish.

Hinging each slat to one another individually allows for greater cover flexibility. The high degree of flexibility this provides makes it possible to use all variations of system configurations on the market. Individually hinged slats also give the cover greater overall tensile strength compared to polyurethane permanent tethered slats. As well as the flexibility gained by this, the hinges also allow for unfettered lateral movement of the cover over the pool surface.

As well as single extrusion, Ocea are exclusively able to offer in-house dual extrusion. This gives us the ability to produce a slat with 2 bespoke colour options, dramatically increasing our colour range.

Our 20 years of experience working with a floating cover system has enabled us to fine tune the specific design of our end caps – something that is often overlooked in the market.

As such, we have specially designed a guiding end cap capable of allowing our covers to effortlessly glide over the pool surface, navigating standard obstacles on the pool shell. In addition to this, our end caps are extremely versatile and can be used in a wide variety of pool finishes – including tiled and liner.

The design of our end caps incorporates a water evacuation slot which prevents the build-up of stagnant water and debris in the connecting chamber.

Unlike other manufacturing methods in the industry each of our end caps are hand glued using a specially selected, neutral cure, medium modulus silicon sealant. This method allows us to have the best quality control process, as each slat is surveyed by our qualified production staff. The sealant itself is a slow cure silicon adhesive with strong binding properties to the plastic, producing an extremely reliable seal.
