Resin surfacing for swimming pool surrounds

Take your poolside area to a whole new level by choosing our Résineo resin surfacing.

Choosing the material for your pool deck is a key step in designing the area around your pool.

The ideal surface should make the area around your swimming pool safe, blend in perfectly with your home’s surroundings and be comfortable to use. The area around your swimming pool will add charm and character to your outdoor space, but above all it must be practical and easy to maintain.

The benefits of pool deck surfacing

WATER-draining:

The Résineo drainage solution prevents water from pooling around the edge of the swimming pool thanks to its drainage capacity. From 30 to 50 litres per square metre per second.

reduces slipperiness:

The surface reduces the risk of slipping at the pool edges. Bare feet: NF P 0511: 2019, PN18 classification.

durable:

It is heat- and frost-resistant (UV- and moisture-resistant), and the risk of cracking is very low.

Aesthetics and customisation:

A wide range of colours and finishes to enhance your pool surrounds and blend them seamlessly into their surroundings.

easy to maintain:

Very low-maintenance; simply hosing it down is enough to keep the floor clean.

An outdoor natural stone floor covering for a unique look

Also known as stone carpet, our pool deck surfacing – made from resin and mineral aggregates – helps to show off your pool to its best advantage. It moulds perfectly to the curves of your pool’s perimeter, emphasising its contours.

The wide range of mineral aggregate colours we offer allows you to style your pool surround and create outdoor spaces that reflect your personal style and blend perfectly with your patio, garden and home. With trendy, modern colours and materials, the surfacing will complement the décor and outdoor layout of your patio.

I had stone-effect carpet laid over 80m², covering the pavement and part of the driveway under the carport. The fitter was very professional. One edging strip warped on two occasions, and the fitter replaced it both times. I had stone-effect carpet laid over 80m², covering the pavement and part of the driveway under the carport. The fitter was very professional. One edging strip warped on two occasions, and the fitter replaced it both times. He even reinforced the installation by creating a strip of paving stones to stabilise the structure. I am completely satisfied with the work carried out by S&L Resimarbre. I would recommend them 100 per cent. Nothing moves. Maintenance is easy if carried out regularly. It drains very well; there’s no water retention. The materials are very attractive and match the description the installer gave me perfectly.
Claudine Adenis
A professional team who listened to our needs and gave good advice; after taking the time needed for preparation, they did a brilliant job and left everything spotless… I highly recommend them.
Gregory Beke
I’m very pleased with the product; it’s comfortable on the feet and looks superb. The company that carried out the installation is very professional.
Jean-François Wennert
Although we live in the Oise and don’t have a swimming pool, we were tempted by Résineo’s ‘stone carpet’. And, to be honest, we’re delighted with the result. Aesthetically, for one thing… but above all, we love its drainage properties and durability for our driveway in front of the garages.

Aesthetically, for one thing… but above all, we love its drainage properties and durability for our driveway in front of the garages. Gone are the days of the old gravel, which didn’t keep out weeds or prevent puddles forming after every downpour! What’s more, the installer, LW Paysages, based in our area, was very professional and did a top-quality job.
Christian Vasseur
After having some issues with the fitter, I turned to Résineo’s after-sales service, who helped me and gave me advice; crucially, they didn’t let me down – I’ve been a customer for over three years. A reliable company that doesn’t let its customers down is very rare these days.

Why choose a permeable surface for your pool deck?

Around a swimming pool, the flooring must meet several requirements: safety for swimmers, comfort when walking barefoot, water resistance and long-term durability. Compared with other options such as tiles, timber, composite decking, natural stone or grass, Résineo flooring offers numerous advantages.

A well-drained surface to minimise slippery areas

The Résineo Drain surface has a naturally draining structure. Water from splashes or swimming seeps through and drains away naturally through the surface.

Result:

  • no puddles form
  • drier soil around the pond
  • lower risk of skidding and aquaplaning
  • comfort when walking barefoot

For your information, tiles and other floor coverings are waterproof and keep water on the surface.

Natural colours that remain stable over time

The aggregates used in stone-effect carpet are derived from natural stone. They do not contain any artificial colourants that might fade over time.

Unlike wood or certain exterior cladding materials, the colour remains stable even after prolonged exposure to the sun. The mineral finish retains its aesthetic appeal over the long term.

Frost- and UV-resistant

Whether it’s damp, heat, cleaning products or temperature fluctuations, Résineo’s stone-effect carpet is perfectly resistant to external stresses.

In practice:

  • UV resistance
  • good resistance to damp
  • compatibility with pool treatment products
  • good frost resistance

Unlike some types of tiles, which can crack when exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations, this flooring retains its stability over time.

A price comparable to that of other external cladding materials

The cost of stone paving for a pool deck is generally in a similar price range to that:

  • porcelain stoneware tiles
  • composite timber
  • exotic timber

Installation is carried out by approved fitters who specialise in the design and fit-out of outdoor spaces and terraces, ensuring an attractive and long-lasting result.

A decorative finish with technical performance

Résineo stone carpet is an outdoor surfacing made from natural mineral aggregates bound together with a high-performance polyurethane resin. This mixture results in a floor that is both attractive and durable, and perfectly suited to poolside areas.

Résineo Drain is currently the only drainage coating to have been awarded a Technical Assessment by the CSTB, which guarantees its long-term reliability.

With a wide range of natural colours to choose from, you can create a harmonious pool area that blends in perfectly with your home, your patios and your garden.

The aggregates used retain their natural colour over the years, even when exposed to prolonged sunlight. Unlike some outdoor surfacing materials, they do not fade and do not require any special treatment to maintain their original appearance.

For a poolside area, it is generally recommended to choose light colours, which are more comfortable when walking barefoot. The ‘Coquillage’ and ‘Désert’ colours are particularly popular because they:

  • do not heat up much in the sun
  • create a natural atmosphere
  • create a beach-like effect around the pool

What types of subfloor are suitable for laying stone-effect carpet around a swimming pool?

Stone carpet can be laid on the two most common types of pool surround surfaces. On a sound, clean, dry concrete slab with a 1–2 per cent slope to allow water to drain away, it is laid to a thickness of 10 mm for pedestrian use. On compacted untreated gravel (GNT), which ensures the pool surround remains fully draining, it is laid to a thickness of 30 mm.

How is a Résineo floor covering installed?

Installation is carried out by an approved contractor in five stages: preparation of the substrate, application of an adhesive primer (on concrete slabs only), mixing of the resin and aggregates on site, application and smoothing to the required thickness, followed by a non-slip finish. Cast in situ, the surfacing follows the contours of the pool, steps and access points to the water, with no visible joints or cuts.

Résineo Drain has been awarded a PN18 rating in standardised tests, making it suitable for areas where people walk barefoot, such as poolside areas.
