Lagoon Blue: Aquastyle Blue Macauba Glass Mosaic

Line a pool or lift a bathroom with the Aquastyle Blue Macauba glass mosaic from Hyperion Tiles.

Blue Macauba is the clearest, most classical of the Aquastyle blends — a true swimming-pool blue, blended across the sheet in tones that shift from pale to mid so the surface never reads flat. It is the colour most people picture when they picture a pool. The 2.5cm chips are set on a 31 x 46.7cm mesh-backed sheet.

This is a proper pool mosaic. Rated for swimming pool tanks as well as internal walls and floors and external walls, frostproof, and finished in a gloss glaze that holds its colour under constant immersion and UV. Glass carries its pigment within the body rather than in a surface layer, which is precisely why it belongs in water.

Installation & care

Installation & care

  • Adhesive & Grout: Use a white flexible adhesive suitable for glass — anything grey or cement-coloured will read through the chips and dull the blue. For a pool or any surface under constant immersion, the adhesive and grout must be rated for continuous water contact; an epoxy grout is the usual specification.
  • Layout Options: The blend is mixed within each sheet, so no shuffling is needed — but do set the sheets out dry first and check the joints line through, since these are unrectified and the sheet edge is where a mosaic run lives or dies.
  • Cleaning: Clean with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Glass needs no sealing and will not stain or fade.
Samples

Tone, glaze and veining all read differently in your own light. Cut samples are free — sample postage is £4.99 (£8 for Original Style) and we refund it on tile orders over £50 with the code we email you. Our family-run team is happy to check quantities and finishes with you on 01344 620211.

Delivery

In-stock orders are dispatched within 3–5 working days, with express options available. Special-order and made-to-order ranges carry their own lead time, shown on the product page and confirmed when you order. Pallet, slab, large-format and bathware orders travel on a specialist off-load service — we confirm the timescale and book a date that suits you before dispatch.

Delivery is calculated at checkout from your order and postcode (we do not offer showroom collection) and UK delivery is free on orders over £1,000 on most ranges. For pallet deliveries please tell us about access issues in advance — low trees or bridges, narrow roads or gateways, gravel drives, or no turning or unloading space — as a re-delivery charge may apply if we cannot complete delivery.

When your order arrives

Please check your delivery as soon as it arrives. Once goods are unloaded they become the responsibility of the receiver, so if anything isn’t right, contact us within three working days and we’ll put it right quickly.

Returns

Unused, complete orders can be returned within 14 days of delivery; as tiles are picked and packed to your quantity, a restocking fee of 20–30% applies depending on the range. Special-order items are non-returnable unless damaged on delivery or faulty. Ordering a free sample first is the simplest way to avoid a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

How many Aquastyle sheets do I need?

Aquastyle is sold by the sheet, with each 31 x 46.7cm sheet covering 0.145m² — that works out at 6.89 sheets per m². Measure your area in square metres, add 10% for cuts and wastage, then multiply by 6.89 and round up. For a swimming pool do measure the walls, floor and any steps or benches separately, and allow a little extra for the curved returns. Waxman also supply Aquastyle by the pack of 14 sheets, covering 2.03m². Our friendly team is always happy to check your quantities on 01344 620211.

What adhesive and grout should I use in a swimming pool?

This is the part worth getting right. A pool tank is under permanent immersion and constant chemical load, so a standard wall adhesive and cementitious grout will not do — you need an adhesive and grout system specifically rated for continuous water contact, and an epoxy grout is the usual specification for a tank. The adhesive should also be white: glass is translucent, so a grey or cement-coloured bed will read straight through the chips and dull the colour. Tanking and movement joints matter just as much as the tile. Do speak to us or your pool contractor before you buy — we are happy to advise on 01344 620211.

Where can I use Aquastyle?

Aquastyle is rated for swimming pool tanks, internal walls, internal floors and external walls, and it is frostproof — which makes it one of the few surfaces you can carry from inside a pool, up the surround and into an adjoining changing room or bathroom without changing material. It is equally at home in a spa, a wet room, a shower enclosure or across a splashback. The 2.5cm chips on a flexible mesh sheet will follow the curve of a pool wall, wrap a step or turn a bench cleanly.

Will Aquastyle fade in a pool or in sunlight?

No. The colour in a glass mosaic is held within the body of the glass rather than in a surface glaze or a printed layer, so there is nothing to wear away, bleach out or chalk off. That is the reason glass has been the default for pool linings for decades — it shrugs off UV, chlorine and permanent immersion in a way that few other materials manage. It needs no sealing and will not stain.
