Anti-slip where children run
Independently verified anti-slip ratings, wet and dry — the grip a busy poolside needs for the moment a child forgets the "no running" rule.
Poolside Safety Surfacing
Seamless, anti-slip surfacing for school pool decks and wet pathways — sure-footed when wet, cool underfoot in the sun, and flush enough for wheelchairs and walking frames to cross.
We pour it as one continuous, joint-free surface around the pool, learn-to-swim area and changing-room routes — so the deck is safe to move beside, easy to supervise, and inclusive for every swimmer.
Key enhancements
What we deliver for school pool decks.
Flush and inclusive
Poured seamless with no tiles or trip joints, so wheelchairs, walking frames and unsteady little feet cross it easily — keeping the pool deck accessible for SEND swimmers.
Cooler underfoot
A University of Western Sydney study found it stays significantly cooler in full sun than rubber or artificial grass — no scalded feet between lessons.
Cushioned for slips
A resilient surface that is kinder than hard tile or concrete when a child slips on a wet deck.
Built for pool chemistry
Chemical-, salt- and UV-resistant — polyolefin beads and a two-part aliphatic polyurethane binder specified to handle chlorine to 10 ppm without degrading.
Hygienic and low-maintenance
Sealed Aquatrak hoses clean and resists mould and algae; porous Splash drains instantly — easy for site teams to keep clean between sessions.
Key products
The Polysoft surfaces we pour poolside.
We match the system to each zone — non-porous swim decks, porous wet surrounds, cushioned tiles and dry pathways. Every product links through to its page on Leka Catalogs.
Why choose us
Why schools surface pool decks with Polysoft.
Slip-safety, documented
Independently verified anti-slip performance wet and dry, with manufacturer data your site and inspection teams can file.
Inclusive by design
A flush, seamless finish means the pool deck works for wheelchair users, walking frames and SEND swimmers — not just confident ones.
Phased to term time
We pour and cure into holiday windows so the pool is back in use for the start of the new term.
Specified and installed by Leka
We choose the right Polysoft system per zone, manage the pour, and hand over a deck built for Asia's sun and monsoon.
Design tool
Design your colour blend.
Mix up to six granule colours from our surfacing palette, dial each in by 5%, and watch the speckled surface come together in real time. Save the preview or copy a share link so your design team — or ours — can pick up exactly where you left off.

Colours shown are on-screen simulations to help you explore combinations — the cured granule colour varies a little with each batch, the binder and the light it sits in, so we always confirm against physical samples before a surface is poured.

For architects & specifiers
Specifying play for a school or campus? We work the way your studio does.
Much of our work reaches the ground through the architects and landscape architects who design the schools and campuses it sits in. Here is what that partnership adds to your practice.
Schematic-phase design support
Brief us at concept or schematic stage and we send back layout options, 3D renders and a play-value rationale you can drop into a client presentation — free, with no obligation to buy.
BoQ-ready, bilingual specs
Each item arrives specified — dimensions, materials, safety zones, certifications — as drawing-ready line items in English and Thai, so your QS and your client read the same document.
Compliance evidence for your set
Play equipment certified to EN 1176, surfacing to EN 1177 / ASTM F1292, with critical-fall-height data sized to each structure — the documentation your specification and the site inspection need.
Factory-direct pricing
We manufacture and import directly, so the play budget buys specified-grade equipment at a transparent price — and tends to survive value engineering with the spec intact.
One accountable partner
Design support, supply, surfacing and installation under a single contract — so the outdoor-play scope does not fragment across your consultants and the main contractor’s trades.
Specified for the tropics
UV-stable, monsoon-drained and corrosion-rated for Southeast-Asian sites — so what leaves your drawings still performs and looks right after a few seasons on the ground.
Whether you’re designing a K-12 school, a university or campus building, an international school or an early-years or kindergarten setting, the play and outdoor-learning scope is the part we make drawing-ready.
Education FAQ
Common questions for this scope.
How is this safer than tiled or painted pool decks?
Polysoft carries independently verified anti-slip ratings tested both wet and dry — the conditions a school pool deck actually sees — where glazed tile and painted concrete get dangerously slick.
Is the pool deck wheelchair- and SEND-accessible?
Yes. Because it is poured seamless with no tiles or trip joints, wheelchairs and walking frames roll across it easily, keeping the poolside inclusive for every swimmer.
Does it get too hot for bare feet?
It runs significantly cooler in full sun than rubber or artificial grass — confirmed by a University of Western Sydney study — and lighter shades can be specified for the hottest areas.
Will it stand up to chlorine and constant wet?
The system uses chemical-resistant polyolefin beads and a two-part aliphatic polyurethane binder, specified to resist chlorine to 10 ppm plus salt and UV — built for a surface that is wet every day.
Can it go over our existing pool deck?
Often yes — Aquatrak's low 4–6 mm profile bonds over sound concrete, so we can resurface a tired deck without demolishing the slab, and schedule it into a holiday break.
Can you support our schematic or design-development phase?
Yes. Brief us at concept or schematic stage and we return layout options, 3D renders and a play-value rationale you can put straight into a client presentation, at no cost. We stay available through DD and tender so the specification stays coordinated.
Do you provide BoQ-ready specifications and CAD/3D for our drawings?
Every item is specified with dimensions, materials, safety zones and certifications — in English and Thai — as drawing-ready line items, with 2D footprints and 3D models or renders on request so your team can place equipment accurately.
Is the equipment certified to the standards we have to specify?
Play equipment is certified to EN 1176 and surfacing to EN 1177 / ASTM F1292, with critical-fall-height data matched to each structure. We hand over the documentation your specification and the project’s safety inspection require.
