SHERIDAN, WYOMING – October 22, 2025 – European pool innovation company PoolWings is opening new business opportunities for dealers and distributors with its patent-protected arm system designed to revolutionize pool cover management. The system’s unique space-saving architecture enables pool covers to be positioned outside the pool area during swimming, merging functionality, luxury, and sustainability in one streamlined solution.

A patented leap in pool cover innovation
At the heart of the PoolWings solution is a patented mechanical arm system that allows users to fold and store pool covers neatly along the pool’s edge. When the pool is in use, the arms extend parallel to the long side, keeping the cover elevated and out of the way. When closed, the arms fold seamlessly back into position. The design eliminates the need for bulky storage mechanisms or construction-heavy integration, significantly reducing installation time and costs.
