Limitless Design, New-Generation Concrete: Flexpool Pools Now in Cyprus
Flexpool is a new-generation concrete pool system: instead of timber formwork, the walls are built from factory-made 20 mm fibre-cement panels on ABS plastic footings. The floor is cast concrete and the walls rise with zero tolerance. Skimmer, overflow, hidden overflow or infinity; in-ground, on a terrace or on a roof; with or without glass. In Cyprus, only Pools Plus builds it.
- Build time: 3–5 weeks
One system, four kinds of pool
Günyüzü Konakları · Beykoz, İstanbul · 4 × 7 mSkimmerThe water sits just below the edge and skimmers take in the surface water. The most economical Flexpool, with no balance tank.
3–4 weeks
Mesa Nurol Yeşilyaka · İstanbul · 4,5 × 14 mOverflow and hidden overflowThe water is level with the edge and spills into a PVC channel. With hidden overflow the channel sits under the coping, so no grating shows.
3–5 weeks
Karacaören · Antalya · 7 × 16 mInfinityThe spilling edge faces the view. The overflow box is built from panels rather than formwork, so the build is much shorter.
4–5 weeks
Brandium · Ataşehir, İstanbulTerrace, roof and glassThe light shell suits terraces and roofs. Double-sided panels stand on their own above ground, and any side can have a glass wall.

Why Flexpool?
Is a flexpool pool right for you?
- You want overflow or infinity in about half the time
- The pool goes on a terrace, penthouse or rooftop
- You want a permanent concrete pool with a short build
- You want a distinctive pool with a glass wall
- You are building several pools for a residence or hotel
Good to know: The floor is cast concrete, so there is digging and a short build. For the lowest budget a panel-liner pool, and for no construction at all a container pool, fits better.
German technology, Turkish engineering
Flexpool panels are made in Istanbul from a fibre-cement material developed in Germany and registered with the German patent office. The material gives the pool properties cast concrete doesn't have.
- German-patented materialThe 20 mm fibre-cement panels were developed in Germany and are made in Türkiye; design, manufacture and material are Turkish-made.
- Flexible with ground movementA panel wall is not rigid like a wall cast in one piece, so it copes better with slight settling and tremors without cracking.
- No rot, mould or insectsFibre-cement is entirely inorganic: even under water or in the ground it does not rot, grow mould or attract insects.
Cast concrete and Flexpool compared
Flexpool works with concrete rather than replacing it: a concrete floor with Flexpool panel walls.

Pools built with Flexpool
Flexpool Pool
What is Flexpool and how does it differ from cast concrete?
The floor is still cast concrete, but the walls are built from factory-made fibre-cement panels instead of timber formwork and on-site pouring. The panels sit with zero tolerance, so the walls come out true with no formwork labour or surprise costs. It is still a permanent concrete pool, built in about half the time.
Why only at Pools Plus?
Pools Plus Cyprus is the Flexpool distributor for Northern Cyprus. In Cyprus, only the Pools Plus team designs, builds and maintains Flexpool pools.
Can it be overflow, hidden overflow or infinity?
Yes. The same parts build 30 pool types, including skimmer, overflow, hidden overflow and infinity. The overflow channel is PVC with no joints, so algae can't take hold.
Can you build a pool on a terrace or roof?
Yes. Flexpool is lighter than cast concrete and is used for terrace, rooftop and roof pools. The building's load capacity is checked by a structural engineer on every project. The 10 terrace pools at Alagadi, Kyrenia, are being built with this system.
Which finishes can be used?
All of them: glass mosaic, tiles, granite, natural stone and liner. Because the walls are true, only a thin layer is needed for waterproofing.
What about warranty and price?
15 years on the shell, 2 years on mechanical parts and the inner finish. The price depends on size, waterline, placement, finish and equipment. We give a written quote after the free site visit.
