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.

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.
