If you are planning a pool and comparing surface options, mosaic tiles are one of the finishes that keeps coming up. This guide walks through our 25 x 25 mm pool mosaic range: the sizes, how the sheets are made, the finishes on offer, and the kind of pool settings each colour suits. The scene images below are AI-assisted design visualizations built from our real product tiles, not site photos, so treat them as a look at colour and layout rather than a specific finished project.
What these pool mosaic tiles are
The listing describes a square-chip pool mosaic. Each chip is 25 x 25 mm, mounted face-up on a 300 x 300 mm mesh sheet, and the tile is 5.9 mm thick. The mesh backing is what makes a mosaic practical to lay: instead of setting hundreds of loose chips, you work with 300 mm sheets and let the small squares follow curves, steps and coves.
The range is listed as the Fengcai pool mosaic collection, and each colour carries a model number such as 25B02, 25B01 or 2520M. A sample listing is one sheet at USD 26.80, and the listing states that the sample cost is credited back in full when you place a full project order.
Packing, from the listing: 22 sheets per box, which covers 2.0 square metres, at 19 kg per box. Those are useful numbers when you are estimating how many boxes a pool will need and what the freight will weigh.
Why the 25 mm chip size matters
Chip size changes how a pool reads. A 25 mm square is small enough to wrap the inside of a curved wall, a rounded step nose or a spa seat without cutting, which is the main reason mosaic is used on pools rather than large-format tile. It also means a lot of grout lines, and grout lines are part of the look: they break up reflections and give the water surface that fine, shifting texture you see in the close-up below.
The finishes on offer
The listing names five finishes for this range: Solid Colour, Kiln-Change Glaze, Granulated Surface, Double Crackle, and Inkjet Print. Each gives the same 25 mm chip a different character:
- Solid Colour is a single even tone across the sheet, the most predictable choice for a clean, continuous pool colour.
- Kiln-Change Glaze shifts tone within and between chips, so the surface has movement rather than one flat colour.
- Granulated Surface carries a finer speckle in the glaze.
- Double Crackle is a crackle-pattern glaze.
- Inkjet Print lets a printed pattern sit on the chip.
Which finish you can get on a given model is worth confirming when you request a sample, since the model numbers below are listed within the same Fengcai range.
Choosing a colour by pool setting
The 13 models in the range run from bright pool blues to pale, sand-toned neutrals. Here is how the colours tend to sit in different pools, using the scene visualizations as reference.
Deep blues for a classic pool
A saturated blue is the colour most people picture when they think of a pool. It reads deep and cool in full sun and gives the water a strong, traditional blue. Models like 25B02 sit in this group.
Pale and sand tones for a soft, resort look
Lighter models push the water towards a pale aqua or a warm, almost sandy tone. These are the colours that give an infinity edge or a resort pool that calm, light-filled surface rather than a deep blue.
Mixed blends for texture
Some settings work best with a blend, where light and mid blues sit side by side across the sheet. The mix reads as texture on the water rather than one flat colour, and it hides the odd variation between chips.
Beyond the main pool
The same 25 mm sheets suit the smaller water features that sit alongside a pool. The listing names swimming pool, spa and wet-area walls and floors as applications.
How colour changes through the day
Water and light do a lot of the work with a pool surface. The same mosaic looks deeper at midday, softer at dusk, and different again under pool lighting at night. If you are choosing between two nearby tones, it is worth looking at a sample in the actual light at your site, at more than one time of day.
What to check before ordering
A few things sit outside what the product listing covers, and they are worth confirming with your pool builder or installer rather than assuming:
- Technical data. For figures such as water absorption, frost rating or surface slip, ask us for the current technical sheet for the specific model, and have your installer confirm it suits your climate and pool type.
- Which finish on which model. The five finishes are listed for the range; confirm the finish you want is available on the model number you have chosen.
- Setting materials. Adhesive, grout and any waterproofing beneath the tile are specified by your installer for your pool structure, not by the tile listing.
- Quantity. Work out your wetted area, then add for steps, coves and waste. At 2.0 square metres per box, that tells you the box count.
Order a sample first
The best way to commit to a pool colour is to hold the actual tile. A sample is one 300 x 300 mm sheet at USD 26.80, and the listing states the sample cost is credited back in full against a full project order. Order the one or two models you are weighing up, look at them wet and dry and in your own light, then decide.
Planning a full pool
For a whole pool rather than a sample, send us your location and the total area in square feet or square metres, and we will prepare a shipping quote and a custom listing for the quantity you need. Boxes are 22 sheets, 2.0 square metres, 19 kg, which is what the freight is calculated on.
