In 1974, after testing several methods for building swimming pools, Jean Desjoyaux invented a new casing system and founded the Forez Piscines company to develop the innovative concept.
Four years later, in 1978, the active permanent casing was patented by Desjoyaux. The composition of this active permanent casing has evolved over time.
This Desjoyaux casing structure integrates all the technical expertise necessary to offer the perfect solution to the challenges of quick installation, durability and flexibility. It uses panels made from recycled polypropylene mixed with carbonate that can be assembled into any shape and size.
The casing is then fitted in a single operation, using a highly-specialized method that produces a hard-wearing durable pool with plenty of creative freedom in terms of its design: specifically, the installation technique maximizes the pool’s service life by casting the reinforced concrete bed-slab and the side-walls into a single-unit structure. With Desjoyaux’s exclusive expertise, the pool is guaranteed to be rot-proof, leak-free and free-standing.
Benefits of Desjoyaux’s active permanent casing:
- an industrially mature and exclusively patented technique;
- a self-supporting reinforced concrete structure with a series of posts, resolving the expansion-related problems inherent in concrete designs and eliminating the risk of separation;
- exceptionally resistant to frost and ground movements;
- record-breaking construction time as 80% of the technical challenges are resolved at the factory;
- an unlimited choice of design shapes and sizes, with the structure delivered to the site according to the requested pool size and shape;
- manufacturing and installation processes certified by Bureau Veritas;
- 10-year international guarantee.
