® panel is a step forward in the current state of art of mosaic technique, extending its range of applications. Traditionally the mosaic is a wall or floor decoration obtained drawing near and composing various colored tiles of stone, glass or the like. All types of mosaic at the current state of art, have the following characteristics:
a) The adopted backings (concrete, poor stone slabs, wood, copper, brass or terracotta) do not allow transmission of light and this means that only one side is visible of each mosaic tile while the other provides to support the tile itself by some glue. Therefore at the current state of art, all mosaic tiles have a hidden side and a visible one;
b) The mosaic tiles are in contact with the atmosphere and therefore over the time subject to deterioration: the main agent of deterioration to preserve mosaics from, is humidity. This may cause de-cohesion between layers of mortar, and insufficient adhesion between layers may lead to fallout of mosaic tiles, saline efflorescence mainly in the joints, veils of calcium carbonate, attacks of micro-organisms and so on;
c) The adoption of mosaics, at the current state of art, is exclusively ornamental.
It would be interesting to get a mosaic where both sides are visible, protected from any deteriorating and/or aggressive agent, used not only as decorative element but as a bright element too, and absolutely strong and safe, thanks to the capacity to keep the various parts compact even if naturally fractured like some stones.
All this becomes possible by MO.PO.FUL.GLASS
® panel.

Innovative features of the MO.PO.FUL.GLASS® panel
a) Bot the faces of mosaic tiles are visible;
b) Mosaic tiles are protected, within two glass sheets, against any aggressive or deteriorating agent;
c) Space between the mosaic tiles allows light transmission, making the composition appear lightweight, giving the optical illusion of mosaic tiles suspended in the air;
d) The field of use of mosaics is extended as the MO.PO.FUL.GLASS
® panel combines the decorative function of the mosaic with safety, thanks to the capacity to keep compactness even if fractured. MO.PO.FUL.GLASS
® panel may be used, for example, in place of traditional concrete-framed glass panels and all situations where you want to combine decoration, brightness and safety.
MO.PO.FUL.GLASS® reflective panel
MO.PO.FUL.GLASS
® reflective panel has only one side to be visible. Mosaic tiles are protected, inside two glass sheets, against any aggressive agent.
Space between the mosaic tiles allows the reflection of light making the composition lightweight with optical illusion of mosaic tiles suspended in air.
MO.PO.FUL.GLASS
® reflective panel may be used as covering and in all situations where you want to combine decoration, brightness and safety.
