T&A, specialist in automatic pool covers, is extending its range of PVC slats by commercializing a new type of slat in polycarbonate. Polycarbonate (PC) is known for its high mechanical resistance to impact and its resistance to higher temperatures. This makes PC slats ideal to use in countries with more sunshine (higher UV radiation).
These PC slats will complete the range of transparent and solar PVC slats. The polycarbonate slats offer a longer life expectancy of the cover and minimize the risk of damage caused by bad weather such as hail.
PC makes it possible to use also solar slats in the southern part of Europe. So everybody will have the possibility to heat their pool by using free energy from the sun!
