Mosaic Pool Tiles and Backlit Vetrite Surfaces
Water has a way of changing everything it touches: it brightens colors in the morning light, sets the patterns on the pool floor in motion with every stroke and, after sunset, brings the pool to center stage, with the whole architecture as its frame.
Designing a pool means deciding how water will meet materials, light and the space around it, and SICIS mosaic pool tiles grow out of exactly that conversation. Glass and marble mosaics, artistic compositions and backlit Vetrite surfaces form a collection of luxury pool tiles and surfaces that spans private residences and large hospitality projects, carried by Italian craftsmanship rooted in Ravenna, the city that has kept the art of mosaic alive for fifteen centuries.
Glass mosaic pool tiles: it all starts with color
Color shapes the character of a pool more than any other element: a crystal-clear turquoise brings tropical waters to mind, while a deep blue or a blend of shades gives the pool floor a vibration that follows the movement of the water.
With more than 800 colors and a wide range of finishes, SICIS glass pool tiles give designers vast compositional freedom. Glass mosaic plays with transparency, reflections and gradients that respond to light and to every ripple on the surface. It follows the project from the most essential combinations to geometric patterns and on to large-scale swimming pool mosaic art, figurative and custom-made.
Compared with large-format tiles, the small tesserae of a pool mosaic follow the architecture in every gesture, covering curves, steps, walls and pool floors seamlessly, even in the boldest geometries.

The depth of marble mosaic
Texture, finish and the nature of the material write the second half of the story. Alongside glass, SICIS offers marble mosaic surfaces that bring veining, natural nuances and a more tactile presence into the pool.
In a marble pool, stone becomes part of the composition and carries the conversation into floors, walls and the surrounding surfaces. It is a choice that comes into its own in indoor pools, private homes and wellness spaces, where continuity of materials builds a consistent atmosphere from one room to the next.
The backlit glass pool, a SICIS invention
Alongside mosaic, SICIS lines pools in Vetrite, large slabs of decorative glass with texture and depth. From there, SICIS took the next and most spectacular step, bringing light into the lining itself: the backlit pool carries our signature and today exists only in SICIS projects. Laid on LED panels, the slabs reveal every nuance and detail, and the whole pool takes on a presence that once belonged to art installations more than to water.
A backlit glass pool in Vetrite lives two lives: by day it plays with natural light and the architecture around it, by night it lights up and becomes the glowing presence the entire space gathers around. From private spas to luxury hotels and resorts, it is a rare privilege reserved for a select few: an illuminated pool that carries light beneath the surface itself, where until now it came only from spotlights. Behind it all is Neptune, the technology SICIS developed for this purpose.

Focus on Neptune technology
Surfaces made for water
A pool puts its materials to the test every day, between constant contact with water, treatment chemicals and, outdoors, the sun of entire summers. That is why at SICIS aesthetic research moves in step with technical research. All our materials are developed to withstand light and the chemical agents found in pool water, and specific tests verify the bond of tesserae mounted on fiber mesh, a decisive factor in the lifespan of the lining.
Careful design and expert installation complete the work, so that every pool keeps its character year after year.
Every project has its own water
There is the private pool, indoor or in-ground, designed as a natural extension of the home. There is the resort pool, which becomes the heart of outdoor life, and the spa pool, where materials and light create an immersive experience. And there are pools on board yachts and superyachts, where every surface answers very precise design requirements.
Swimming pool mosaics in glass, artistic compositions, marble and backlit Vetrite make it possible to interpret each of these places according to its character, its scale and the vision of the person who imagined it.
Every pool starts here
Every pool begins with an idea, and color, material and light are the tools SICIS uses to carry it all the way to the water. The SICIS Pools catalog holds every decorative and design solution for your next pool, along with a few good reasons to make it stand out.
