Terra Blue | 1" x 1" Fujiwa PEB Series Porcelain Tile
Experience the timeless appeal of professional-grade pool tile with Terra Blue. This premium mosaic features a rich, multi-tonal blue hue that provides a "deep water" effect even in shallow areas. Finished with a signature glossy glaze, the porcelain surface is specifically engineered to enhance the natural play of sunlight through water, creating a polished, crystal-clear look.
Unlike standard ceramic mosaics, the Fujiwa PEB Series is constructed from high-purity, high-fired porcelain. It is Pool Rated for continuous submersion and is inherently frost-proof, acid-proof, and stain-resistant. It is the ultimate solution for finishing luxury swimming pools, geometric fountains, and steam rooms where the material must endure harsh chemicals and temperature fluctuations.

Why Choose Fujiwa PEB Series?
-
The "Oceanic" Glow: Terra Blue offers a saturated cobalt-azure tone that provides an inviting, clean look to any body of water.
-
Flexibility for Curves: The small 1" x 1" format allows the mesh to wrap effortlessly around tight radiuses, such as pool steps, spa benches, and rolled beams.
-
Low Maintenance: The dense porcelain body resists algae growth and calcium buildup, making it significantly easier to clean than natural stone.
-
Reliable Performance: As an industry benchmark, Fujiwa tiles are designed to withstand the rigors of salt-chlorine generators and winter freeze-thaw cycles without cracking or delaminating.
Installation & Maintenance Tips
-
Adhesive Selection: Use a White Polymer-Modified Thin-set specifically rated for submerged porcelain mosaics.
-
Sheet Alignment: Because these are mesh-mounted, pay close attention to the "grid" during installation to ensure the 1x1 spacing remains uniform across the entire field.
-
Grout Choice: A light grey or "Sky Blue" waterproof grout is often used to blend the joints, though a "Bright White" grout will provide a more traditional, high-contrast mosaic look.
-
Cleaning: Maintain the glossy finish by using a pH-neutral tile cleaner. For waterline scale, use a soft nylon brush and a dedicated pool tile descaler to prevent scratching the glaze.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can this be used for the entire interior of a pool? A: Yes. The PEB series is a "full-body" pool tile. It is comfortable for swimmers and provides a much more durable and vibrant finish than traditional plaster or pebble finishes.
Q: Is it safe for salt-water pools? A: Absolutely. This porcelain is acid-proof and highly resistant to salt-water corrosion, making it ideal for modern salt-system pools.
Q: How many sheets are in a box? A: There are typically 20 sheets per box, covering approximately 21.6 square feet.
Q: Do the colors vary between boxes? A: While Fujiwa maintains high quality, porcelain is a kiln-fired product. We recommend ordering your total square footage at once to ensure all tiles come from the same "dye-lot."
