We are able to use the same quality glass and due to the proximity of our factory cut down the lead time to produce bespoke designs.

There are 77 sheets used, size 318x318mm and on each sheet there are 841 tiles. So in total 64,757 individual tiles.

11 different colours as per the attachment.

Caprici has a software system which scans in images and then transfers into a mosaic map. This map forms the basis of the outlines and colours, then a colour designer selects colours of tiles. We are able to run a simulation as to what the colour combination will look like. Then printed and mapped with a sheet number and colour code in each tile position.

The actual production process uses a template and each individual tile is placed by hand on each sheet. Each sheet is numbered and sent to our clients with the overall plan showing where each sheet needs to be placed.

We have made many bespoke floral tiles designs

We can custom make motifs or personal emblems at the bottom of the pool as well as feature patterns like a medusa or dolphin to give you a truly unique pool tile finish.

All the pool tiles for patterns are not cut meaning the full tile is used which makes it safe. As there are no sharp edges on the glass pool tiles or ceramic swimming pool tile.
