Not all covers are the same. Beyond all the aesthetic or economic factors, aspects such as the technology implemented or the materials used for their manufacture are fundamental. The reason is as simple as choosing a good product is the guarantee of your peace of mind.
This is a premise that has been clear to us at Capcovers for a long time, which is why quality and functionality are two substantial properties of our pool enclosures. Our models adapt to your needs in a practical way and with optimal safety conditions. Thanks to our efforts, throughout these twenty years we have achieved a series of certifications, also at international level, that guarantee all this talk, do you want to know them?
Certifications that guarantee the quality of our work
STANDARD NF P90-308
Since 2013, we have been complying with the French safety standard for private swimming pools Afnor NF P90-308, which is not yet regulated in Spain. This standard states that pool covers must be designed, built or installed in such a way as to prevent the unintentional immersion of children under five years of age. They must also be resistant to the passage of an adult person and must not cause injury.
It also indicates that, in general, the roofing materials, anchoring systems and fastening systems must comply with the French and European standards in force.
ISO 9001:2008 STANDARD
In Capcovers we work under ISO 9001:2008 since 2002, with all the necessary controls of product, storage, production and installation of covers for an optimal final result. For 10 years we have been certified under AENOR, the strictest and best known certifier in Spain. In 2012 we decided to change to the prestigious German certifier TÜV Rheinland, with greater transcendence in Europe.
All suppliers and materials used by Capcovers in the manufacture of pool enclosures are of the latest generation. We always use first extrusion aluminum under quality certificate, polycarbonate with UV protection on both sides and all the screws are made of stainless steel in AISI 304 and AISI 316 qualities.
ASTM F1346-91
Since we do not only work in Europe, we are ASTM f1346-91 certified, to ensure that we meet the safety standards for private pools in the United States as well. Over the years, ASTM International has become one of the largest classification and standards organizations in the world. It developed F1346-91 to help prevent drowning of children under the age of five by establishing requirements for pool covers.
