A bright white pool deck under full sun, surrounded by Athermic coping and pavers

The Athermic Line — made in Brazil

A pool deck that stays cool in the Florida sun.

Handcrafted white-concrete coping and deck pavers — cool underfoot, slip-resistant, and bright by design. Now available factory-direct to Florida stores and installers.

Cool-touch

Low solar-heat absorption, so the surface stays comfortable for bare feet at midday.

Slip-resistant

A textured finish on every piece keeps footing sure on the wet edge of the pool.

White cement

Cast by hand from our own mix built around imported white cement — not ordinary concrete.

The material

Not standard concrete.

Athermic isn't poured like ordinary concrete.

We build it from our own raw-material mix around imported white cement, then cast and finish each piece by hand — a process that passes through several skilled hands before a piece ever reaches a pool. The result is a dense, refined surface engineered for one place: the area around water.

Why it works

Comfort and safety, in one surface.

01 — Comfort

Cool under bare feet

Because the surface absorbs little solar heat, the deck holds a comfortable temperature even at midday — no dash across hot stone between the water and the lounge chair.

02 — Safety

Sure footing, wet or dry

Every piece is finished with a slip-resistant texture, so the step from pool to deck stays safe for kids and guests all day.

03 — Craft

Finished like a piece

Refined edges, consistent tone, and a clean white finish that makes the whole pool area read bright and elegant — not like a poured slab.

Surface temperature — under the same sun

Illustrative. Light, low-absorption surfaces reflect more sunlight and store less heat than dark stone or standard pavers, so an Athermic deck stays markedly more comfortable for bare feet in direct sun.

One cohesive surface

Coping and deck, from the same hand.

We make both the bullnose coping that finishes the pool's edge and the matching deck pavers for everything around it — set with REJUNTAFlex, our own high-performance grout developed with imported materials. The whole surround shares one look and one cool-touch, non-slip surface, with no mismatched materials.

The difference

Curves cast in one piece.

Most suppliers can only make straight coping. To follow a curved or freeform pool, they cut and assemble small fragments — leaving a ring of seams at the water's edge.

We cast large, continuous curved pieces that trace the pool in smooth, unbroken lines. It is the hardest thing to make in this craft, and the clearest difference you will see — and feel — where the deck meets the water.
