THE QUADRO QUALITY PROMISE
A good decision begins with reasons you can verify.
Independent testing institutes including TÜV NORD, DEKRA, and specialist laboratories assess QUADRO safety at multiple levels. TÜV NORD certifies the complete QUADRO system based on an overarching assessment of its recurring structural elements and audits the manufacturing facilities. DEKRA tests selected plastic materials for chemical safety and flammability. Every batch of our pool liners is tested for prohibited plasticizers and other hazardous substances. Since 1979, production has followed the strict requirements applicable in Germany.
IMPORTANT REASONS FOR MAKING A LONG-TERM DECISION
What matters to moms and dads can be clearly identified.
Independently tested at multiple levels
TÜV NORD certifies the entire QUADRO system based on an overarching assessment of its recurring structural elements and audits the manufacturing facilities. DEKRA tests selected plastic materials for chemical safety and flammability. Every batch of our pool liners is tested for prohibited plasticizers and other hazardous substances.
9-year warranty and safety tested to strict German standards
Documented processes and a 9-year warranty provide certainty for long-term planning. A purchase for the first child becomes an investment that can also be used by other children and by multiple generations.
Material quality for years of safety
Special material and color formulations combine high stability with long-lasting lightfastness and weather resistance. QUADRO was developed for demanding conditions. Since 1979, its carefully calibrated combination of material, color, and UV protection has been designed to meet these exacting requirements.
TESTED FOR SAFETY
Safety begins long before the first assembly.
The documentation reflects several independent levels of testing: GS certification of the entire QUADRO system based on an overarching assessment of its recurring structural elements, audits of the manufacturing facilities, laboratory testing of selected plastic materials, and batch testing of pool liners.
The following overview presents a selection of the standards against which our products are regularly tested by independent testing organizations. The manufacturing facilities are also audited.

A warranty backed by traceable provenance
The warranty applies to purchases made through quadroshop.cn and through authorized partners selected by QUADRO. These partners meet defined selection criteria and are contractually bound to our quality and service standards. Families can rely on that.
View authorized sales channelsThe warranty lasts nine years. Family stories last much longer.
Documented stories show how older QUADRO components have been reassembled decades later, combined with current parts, and used by the next generation.
Nearly 40 years
From Henry to William
Henry received his QUADRO as a child. Today, his son William plays with the same components, now nearly 40 years old.

Material quality shows over time, not just on day one.
QUADRO materials and color formulations are calibrated to balance vibrant colors, weather resistance, high stability, and the requirements for materials suitable for children.
Specially formulated color masterbatch
QUADRO uses only virgin, non-recycled plastic. The plastics used are extremely safe, as demonstrated by their use in food packaging. Specially formulated compounds combine material quality with high stability and long-lasting colors.
Resistant to sun, rain, and snow
High lightfastness alone is not enough. Resistance to rain, snow, extreme sunlight, and impact must all work together.
Tested plastic materials
QUADRO uses only tested materials. Testing covers PAHs, bisphenol A, phenol, prohibited plasticizers, specified flame retardants, heavy metals, and the migration of certain elements, among other factors.
