Procopi is proud of the fact that most of the products it distributes are designed in its own design offices and
manufactured in its own factories.
The strategic committee, taking the opinions and suggestions of the sales and marketing managers under
consideration, proposes the launch of new products. The design and development of these products is then
handed over to the R&D department.
Prototypes and pre-series designs are tested under realistic conditions in an in-house laboratory.
In December 2008, Procopi’s design office was awarded the “Trophée des Bureaux d’Etudes” (Design office
excellence award) at the trade show organised by the SCS (Systèmes-Composants-Solutions) and OPQIBI
(Organisme de Qualification de l’Ingénierie - French engineering qualification organisation).

MANUFACTURING PLANTS
Equipment distributed by Procopi is manufactured in one of its 3 manufacturing plants, all of which are located in France :
The Guingamp plant
The manufacturing plant located in Guingamp operates 24 hours a day. It is interesting to note
that Procopi is the only French company on the Swimming Pool Market to produce its own moulds.
For this purpose, the plant features tooling manufacturing workshops that house the most elaborate
technologies: machining centres, lathes and milling cutters, spark erosion, etc. The Guingamp specialises in the manufacture of:
Aquareva pool fittings
Piscines PPP and Tropica
MTi and Soliflow injected filters
Procopi is the only French company on the Swimming Pool Market to injection mould its own
PVC and ABS parts. The injection workshop comprises 9 presses (from 62 to 1,500 metric tons),
each equipped with a mould removal robot.
Automatic covers (Delta range)
Procopi is, yet again, the only French company on the automated cover market to extrude the
PVC slats used to manufacture automated covers in its own factory.
The Le Rheu plant
This plant, located near Rennes, occupies 15,000 m² of factory floor, and offices.
It specialises in the transformation of flexible plastics (PVC, PE).
The Le Rheu plant is notably
responsible for the manufacture of :
Superliner and Aqualiner
Mambo and Calypso bar covers
Winter covers
Bubble covers
This factory possesses 3 computer assisted cutting tools (Lectra), 10 high frequency
welding machines installed in pits and 5 ultrasound and thermal welding machines.
The Pleumeleuc plant
Pleumeleuc, also close to Rennes, occupies 10,000 m² of factory floor and
offices.
This manufacturing plant specialises in Resin Transfer Moulding, the low pressure
injection moulding of composites.
Procopi adopted and mastered this technology, previously the exclusive domain
of the aeronautical and automobile sectors, to produce its range of RTM filters.
This manufacturing process meets the European Volatile Organic Compound
Emission Standard.
The following products are also manufactured at this site :
