Two generations, one commitment.
Founded in 1983 by Roland und Heide Melichar in Königsdorf, ROLLO SOLAR is now run by the second generation of the family — Hannah and Felix Thormann.
The utmost care, uncompromising quality standards and state-of-the-art manufacturing combine with personalised service — from the initial consultation through to installation and maintenance. AI-supported processes make collaboration faster and more precise; at the heart of it all is a team that is passionate about its customers. Every Pool Cover is unique.
As a subsidiary of the founding family Melichar, Rollo Solar is part of it. Today, it is primarily responsible for sales, operational activities and human resources.
Having held positions at KPMG, BMW and Capgemini, he is responsible for strategy, finance, procurement and digital development.
Behind the two of them is a team made up of over 40 people in production, design and service — the cornerstone of ROLLO SOLAR.
Meet our team →It’s all ‘Made in Germany’.
Development, manufacture and assembly are all carried out in-house — at our 5,000 m² production facility in Bad Tölz. We rely on German, local suppliers and precision craftsmanship to ensure that every swimming pool cover meets your quality standards.
Responsibility that begins with development.
For us, responsibility begins with the development of our products: durable construction, interchangeable individual profiles and spare parts available even years later.
A 213 kWp photovoltaic system has been installed on the company’s roof since 2020.
Our production hall is constructed using timber (glued laminated timbers).
In the manufacture of the black underside of certain profiles, production scrap from the manufacturing process is reused.
A cover reduces heat loss and evaporation — saving on heating energy and the need to top up the water. The extent of the potential savings depends on the specific pool, its location and how it is used.
