We got a nice virtual tour from the ALDABRA factory and an overview of their exterior line.
Most of their Exterior rated IP68 fixtures are suitable for use underwater.
The VERTEBRA Line is their flexible wall grazer fixture with aluminum and stainless steel body, available with different optics available - narrow beam (10°) - medium beam (30°) - wide beam (45°) - elliptical optics (54°x12°) - Great for facades, columns, curved surfaces.
Their submergible flexible fixtures are EK1 (1inch) for swimming pools and EK2 - stainless steel. UL human touch certified. The flexible fixture is up to 14ft long and suitable for the fountain! but not a swimming pool (human touch).
Everything is made to order! nothing is in stock. The general lead time is 4 /8 weeks depends on the volume.
They use different LED suppliers such as Cree, Luxeon, and Citizen.
Fixtures are available in different standard CCTs, RGB, and RGBW.
Factory Tour:
They can provide a test result for any batch on demand

It takes 2 days to complete one batch
They light on every single fixture before poor the layer
Use vacuum technology to take all the air bubbles out
Larger profile fixtures have 7 to 8 layer of resin
The smaller profiles have just 4 layers.
For the flexible linear they use a flexible LED module.
Resin is used to avoid any water penetration - Even the conventional wall grazer is filled with resin
