Cette option peut être limitée à une zone spécifique du bassin (nez des marches ou périphérie du bassin, pour une visibilité et une sécurité accrues).

nosing
If they are tiles around a swimming pool, it would be called nosing tiles. See "nosing tiles" on web page link (left hand menu). Prevents slipping, makes the edge of the pool more visible for safety purposes.
