A swimming pool for every family…

Desjoyaux, Everyone should have a pool ! Desjoyaux is a family story that dates back to one day in 1966. Jean Desjoyaux wanted to provide his family with a swimming pool. He decided to build it himself. With the pool soon came along laughter and fond memories. But also friends, neighbours and a real holiday atmosphere. Jean Desjoyaux realised that a swimming pool is a source of joy for the whole family. And for Jean Desjoyaux a swimming pool like that should be accessible for all families. He decided that every family should have its own swimming pool.

the family spirit… Jean Desjoyaux designed a simple, universally accessible product that would allow other families to get the same enjoyment that he had. He introduced a new type of swimming pool with two exclusive features: monobloc structure and pipeless filtration. The Desjoyaux pool was born. Its success lies in its simple design, craftmanship production values applied on an industrial scale with infinite possibilities in terms of shape and equipment options..

One family, 14,000 swimming pools With over 14,000* projects each year in every corner of the globe, Desjoyaux is now the world’s leading in-ground pool supplier. As well as Jean Desjoyaux’s children and grandchildren, the Desjoyaux family also includes a vast team of employees and experts – dealers, craftsmen and staff members – all of whom share the same passion. *

A high quality pool that’s simple to build ? We have the technology ! 1 The Desjoyaux liner: simple and effective

3 The Desjoyaux coping, it’s all about the finish

The Desjoyaux liner keeps your pool watertight. It clips to the structure with a liner lock making it just as simple to replace, with no need for removal of the coping. For renovation projects the liner is welded on site to fit the exact characteristics of the pool. Desjoyaux liners come in a range of different tones and gives the pool its colour.

Our range of coping stones are co-ordinated with our paving stones and are manufactured by Desjoyaux to guarante the best possible quality. The coping is installed on the pool’s upper tie beam, giving unrestricted access to the liner. The copings can also be individually replaced, with no need for removal of other pool components..

1 2 The Desjoyaux casing : customised, quick to fit and long-lasting The active permanent casing was patented by Desjoyaux in 1978. It offers the perfect solution to the challenges of quick installation, durability and flexibility. It uses panels made from recycled polypropylene mixed with carbonate, which are assembled to the shape and size of your choice. The casing is then fitted in a single operation, using special methods that produce a top-quality finish. This exclusive process creates a hard-wearing, durable pool with plenty of creative freedom in terms of its design. With our exclusive expertise, your Desjoyaux pool is guaranteed to be rot-proof, freestanding and a single monolithic structure.

4 An exclusive Desjoyaux concept : Pipe-free filtration simpler and more effective Inspired by outboard boat motors, the exclusive Desjoyaux system, patented in 1983 has a completely pipe-free design. This eliminates the need for long and costly buried pipe-laying work and reduces the risk of leaks. The system is fitted to your pool using a straddle-type unit, a unit fitted directly into the structure, or a filtration unit installed in the steps.
