Exclusive to Compass Pools
Bi-Luminite™ Pool Colour Technology
The world's most advanced fibreglass pool colour system. Stunning depth, 3D luminosity, and a finish that stays brilliant for decades — available in 9 exclusive colours.
The Way Your Pool Looks Makes a Big Difference
The surface of a Compass Bi-Luminite pool can only be described as brilliantly luminous. Behind this luminous, three-dimensional lustre is another example of the scientific approach Compass takes to every aspect of pool construction.
Before Compass developed Bi-Luminite technology, most fibreglass composite pools came in plain colour finishes. Some had flecks, others tried to look like marble. Compass revolutionised the look of fibreglass composite pools by inserting large, handmade reflective chips into the resin and using two colour layers, not just one.
The way your pool looks will affect your enjoyment just as much as the way it functions. The unique bi-luminite colouring process used by Compass enhances the appearance of your pool and actually works to keep it looking like new for longer.
Watch: How Bi-Luminite creates a 3D colour effect in your pool
Our Exclusive Bi-Luminite™ Layering Process
Two colour layers create a stunning 3D effect unique to Compass.
Large Colour Chips
Unlike standard single-tone finishes, Compass uses large, reflective colour chips made in-house — no two pools are exactly alike.
Two Colour Layers
A second colour layer is suspended beneath the clear gelcoat — creating depth and luminosity impossible with a single-layer approach.
Suspended Reflectors
Extra glitter and reflective particles are suspended throughout the layers, catching light from every angle for a stunning 3D shimmer.
ArmourShield Coat
An additional vinyl ester resin layer (ArmourShield) seals everything in, protecting the colour from pool chemicals and UV.
Bi-Luminite™
The result: a brilliantly luminous, three-dimensional finish exclusive to Compass Pools.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pool Colours
Everything you need to know before choosing your Bi-Luminite colour.
What is Bi-Luminite pool colour technology?
Bi-Luminite is an exclusive Compass Pools colour system that uses two colour layers and large reflective chips suspended in a tinted gelcoat layer to create a stunning, three-dimensional luminous finish. Unlike standard single-layer pool colours, Bi-Luminite achieves real depth and brilliance that changes with the light and the water.
How many Bi-Luminite colours are available?
There are 9 exclusive Bi-Luminite colours: Quartz, Viridian, Evolution, Sapphire, Atlantic, Pearl, Pacific, Vercoe, and Pink Quartz. The most popular are Quartz, Evolution, Pacific and Sapphire. A second range — the Vivid collection — offers 5 additional single-layer options.
What warranty comes with a Bi-Luminite pool?
All Compass Bi-Luminite ceramic pools come with a 10-year comprehensive cosmetic warranty and a lifetime structural warranty*. They are also manufactured with ArmourShield (an additional vinyl ester resin layer) that protects the colour from pool chemicals and UV exposure. *Conditions apply. Vivid pools have different warranty terms. Refer to the Compass Pools Australia manufacturer's warranty for full details.
What is the difference between Bi-Luminite and Vivid?
Bi-Luminite uses two colour layers for a 3D luminous finish with a 10-year cosmetic warranty and lifetime structural warranty*. Vivid is a single-layer colour system at a more affordable price point — still performing above industry standard — with a 7-year cosmetic warranty and 25-year structural warranty*.
Which pool colour is most popular?
The most popular Bi-Luminite colours in recent years have been Quartz, Evolution, Pacific and Sapphire. Quartz is a timeless warm grey-white. Evolution is a deep charcoal blue-grey. Pacific is a clear aqua-blue inspired by tropical ocean water, and Sapphire is a vivid ocean blue.
Does pool colour affect water temperature?
Darker colours such as Atlantic and Viridian absorb more heat and can help warm the water naturally in cooler climates. Lighter colours like Quartz and Pearl reflect more light. Your local Compass dealer can advise on the best colour for your climate and preferences.
How long does a Bi-Luminite pool colour last?
When we developed Bi-Luminite technology, we did so knowing that a pool is designed to go into the ground for an entire lifetime. Anything that sits under the sun and is exposed to chemicals for decades will change over time. However, the key is to make that change so subtle that you find it hard to notice. In other words, you can expect your Bi-Luminite pool to remain looking stunning for decades ahead.
