Our different profile sizes
Infographic profile in size comparison
Here you can see our different profile sizes from which you can choose. Our biggest profile is the 15/80, which is 15mm high and 80mm wide. It offers the greatest buoyancy of all profiles and is available as a design profile in PC or PVC.
The profile 13/60 is 13mm high and 60mm wide, it offers similar features to the profile 15/80, but the load-bearing capacity is not quite as high as for profiles in size 15/80. The design profile 13/60 in PC also offers the highest hail class 3.

The mini profile, also known as 9/50, is 9mm high and 50mm wide, it is made of PVC and has no hail class certification.

The Covers, which are available in PC (polycarbonate) as well as PVC (polyvinyl chloride), offer excellent insulation properties and are winter-resistant. The profiles are available in different colours, whereby we can even offer the design covers in PC in all RAL colors, the color matching end caps seal the profiles air- and water-resistant.

The optional use of solar cover also ensures that your pool water heats up to 3°C / 37,4 Fahrenheit per day.

The Design Cover swimming pool covers in PC and PVC offer even more buoyancy and safety than comparable products thanks to the fourth additional air chamber.
