ORDRAN Architectural Pool Systems

ORDRAN · Architects & Specifiers

Bring pool geometry, water systems, logistics and local interfaces into the design conversation early.

ORDRAN gives architects, designers, developers and project teams a structured pathway for custom pool geometry, infinity systems, viewing windows, compact framed pools and project-specific technical information. The aim is to establish what the pool needs from the architecture before production documentation is released.

Commercial project fit

Where this ORDRAN pathway creates value.

ORDRAN is used where the pool needs to respond to architecture, operating requirements or logistics rather than simply fit a standard catalogue shell.

01

Early feasibility

Review pool type, approximate geometry, construction pathway and logistics before the architecture becomes difficult to change.

02

Infinity coordination

Set waterline, overflow edge, collection and balance requirements alongside building and landscape levels.

03

Viewing-window design

Coordinate panel location, support, seal interfaces and surrounding structure as one project-specific system.

04

Raised and semi-inground pools

Resolve support, slab, surrounding levels, drainage and access around the selected construction family.

05

Hospitality specification

Create repeatable pool types for villas while keeping feature pools under separate technical control.

06

Tender / project documentation

Use ORDRAN product guides and Technical Centre information as planning references, with final approved project documents controlling supply.

Project priorities

Resolve the project constraints before release.

Use the exact construction-family information rather than generalising details across the ORDRAN range.Identify structural, hydraulic, glazing and equipment interfaces before detailed design is frozen.Keep project-specific values tied to approved drawings and named equipment schedules.Allow practical access for lifting, plant, maintenance and future component replacement.Coordinate destination engineering, barriers, approvals and regulated services with the local project team.Treat website technical information as a planning layer; final project documents govern manufacture and supply.

ORDRAN pathways

Choose the closest technical and commercial pathway.

These are not interchangeable model names. Each pathway has its own construction, technical and project-control logic.

Project Information Checklist

Information needed before configuration can be properly resolved.

Project sequence

Turn design intent into a controlled supply package.

ORDRAN is supply-only. Local engineering, foundations, lifting, regulated trades, barriers, approvals, installation and commissioning remain destination responsibilities unless expressly included.

01

Define the design intent

Pool type, water experience, geometry, levels, surrounding architecture and visual priorities.

02

Identify the construction family

Match the concept to the closest documented or project-configured ORDRAN pathway.

03

Coordinate technical interfaces

Structure, hydraulics, glazing, equipment, lifting and destination works are identified.

04

Develop controlled drawings

Project-specific dimensions and interfaces are resolved in the approved documentation.

05

Freeze equipment + supplied scope

Named components, options, freight and exclusions are recorded before production release.

06

Coordinate local delivery

Destination consultants and contractors complete local engineering, approvals, installation and commissioning.

Project planning example

Planning example · raised architectural pool

For a raised pool with a viewing window, the design team would first lock the desired water geometry and surrounding structure, then coordinate window position, support, sealing, equipment access, lifting and finished levels. The window cannot be treated as a decorative insert after the pool and deck structure are already fixed.

International market pathways

Match the pool brief to the destination from the beginning.

ORDRAN project review includes destination, climate/exposure, freight route, access, local project capability and operating requirements. Market pages provide the wider Apollo project-supply context; the final ORDRAN configuration remains project-specific.

Start the project review

Send the geometry, drawings, project location, access information and intended pool use you already have.
