Practical case · collaboration since 2023
EVA Optic lighting, fastened with PoolFIX
Since early 2023, EVA Optic has been supplying its lighting systems with fastening products from PoolFIX. This brings fastening into pool projects as a separate technical component.

Collaboration
Formalized in early 2023
PoolFIX contribution
Nuts, bolts, and screws
Selection basis
Project, location, and load
Two specialties, one project path
Fastening belongs to the lighting system
EVA Optic develops lighting for pool environments. PoolFIX focuses on fastening products and the associated material and documentation choices. In the collaboration, these components are brought together earlier.
That makes fastening visible in technical preparation: which item is used, where it goes, which exposure and load are relevant, and which product documentation applies to the supply?
The original EVA Optic publication mentions PoolFIX 5th generation and 1.4529. In the current PoolFIX route, PoolFIX Coated is reviewed first where a released product-specific rule exists for it. 1.4529 remains a limited exception that requires a project-specific technical assessment.
What PoolFIX adds
From loose fastener to documented choice
The collaboration is not about one universal material, but about a verifiable route to a suitable fastening.
Application-driven selection
Location, exposure, substrate, load, and installation are taken into account in the material choice.
Item-specific documentation
Available product and batch documentation is linked to the item actually supplied.
Clear escalation
If no released rule or project information is available, technical material advice follows instead of automatic approval.

How we work together
Four steps from project request to delivery
The fastening choice is not added afterward, but treated as a verifiable part of project preparation.
- 1
Document project data
Lighting system, fastening location, substrate, exposure, and load are defined concretely.
- 2
Review the material route
PoolFIX checks the available information against current, released product-specific application rules.
- 3
Choose the item and documentation
The selected fastening is linked to the available technical product and delivery documentation.
- 4
Deliver and keep traceability
The project party receives the agreed items with the available item and batch information.
Clear division of roles
Specialized collaboration without a general product promise
EVA Optic remains the specialist in the lighting solution. PoolFIX supports the selection and supply of fastening products. Design, structural verification, installation, inspection, and maintenance remain responsibilities within the relevant project.
This case describes the collaboration path. It is not a project-specific approval, structural calculation, declaration of conformity, or substitute for current product documentation.
Discuss your application
Bring fastening into the project early too?
Share the location, load, substrate, and exposure. PoolFIX helps map the available material route and documentation for your project.
