Alkorplan 2000: Solid Colours for Your Pool (Standard Range)
The Alkorplan 2000 range by Renolit is, without doubt, the most popular and best-selling reinforced membrane on the market for residential pools. This is the collection of lacquered solid colours, a versatile and timeless option offering the best value for money in the Alkorplan catalogue. If you are looking for a reliable, attractive and sensibly priced lining for a classic pool, this standard range is almost always the starting point we recommend at ARG Piscinas after more than 15 years installing Renolit reinforced membrane across Andalusia and Spain.
What the Alkorplan 2000 range is
Alkorplan 2000 is a PVC reinforced membrane with a polyester mesh, in its standard 1.5 mm thickness. The internal mesh provides dimensional strength and prevents the material from stretching or deforming over time, while the lacquered top finish protects against dirt, stains and UV rays. Unlike prefabricated liners, reinforced membrane is heat-welded in situ, overlap by overlap, to form a continuous, watertight membrane perfectly adapted to the shape of your pool.
The term "solid colours" describes exactly what this collection offers: uniform, solid tones with no stone-imitating textures or veining. It is the foundation on which Renolit Alkorplan built its reputation and remains the preferred choice for its simplicity, clean look and proven performance.
Available models and water colour
A key point when choosing within the Alkorplan 2000 range is understanding that the membrane colour determines the water tone. Pool water is transparent; the colour we perceive is the reflection of the pool shell lining. These are the most popular solid models:
| Model | Membrane tone | Resulting water colour |
|---|---|---|
| Light Blue | Light blue | Turquoise, bright water, the classic pool blue |
| White | White | Very light, almost crystalline turquoise, lagoon style |
| Sand | Sand / beige | Warm green-blue water, natural Mediterranean feel |
| Grey | Grey | Deep greenish water, elegant contemporary look |
Light Blue is the best-seller as the quintessential pool blue. White adds brightness and a clear-water effect sought after in modern pools. Sand creates a warm, beach-like atmosphere, while Grey is the on-trend option for those seeking a sober, design-led finish. The range also includes other references depending on availability, so it is worth checking physical samples before deciding, since light and shell depth alter the final perception.
Which pool and client it is ideal for
The Alkorplan 2000 range is the perfect choice for the classic residential pool: detached homes, villas and second residences seeking a clean, reliable finish on a contained budget. It is ideal if:
- You want the timeless pool blue or a solid tone that never goes out of style.
- You are after the best value for money without giving up the Renolit warranty and backing.
- You are renovating an old mosaic or polyester pool and want a durable, watertight reinforced membrane refurbishment.
- You are building a new pool and prefer to invest in a balanced lining rather than higher-cost premium collections.
Advantages of choosing Alkorplan 2000
- Total versatility: its solid tones match any garden style, coping or surroundings.
- Continuous, watertight membrane: heat-welded over geotextile and profiles, it removes the joints that crack in mosaic tiling and guarantees full waterproofing.
- Economical and cost-effective: as the standard 1.5 mm version, it offers a lower cost per square metre than the 2 mm Premium ranges.
- Anti-dirt lacquered finish: the lacquer layer hinders limescale and biofilm adhesion, making cleaning easier.
- Adaptable to any shape: installed on rectangular, free-form pools, with Roman steps, beaches or integrated spa.
Maintenance and durability
A well-installed and maintained Alkorplan 2000 membrane offers a service life of 10 to 15 years, and even longer in optimal conditions. Maintenance is simple and very similar to that of any pool, with a few nuances specific to reinforced PVC:
- Keep the water balanced: pH between 7.0 and 7.4 and controlled free chlorine. Excess chlorine or uncontrolled pH discolours and hardens the material over time.
- Brush the waterline regularly to prevent grease and limescale build-up, which is where stains first appear.
- Avoid abrasive products and solvents; specific PVC pool cleaners are enough.
- On light tones such as White or Sand, a good filtration routine and strict chemistry control keep the colour flawless for years.
Remember that durability depends as much on the product as on the quality of the installation. A poor weld or badly laid geotextile will ruin even the best material. That is why we always work as official Renolit installers, taking care of every overlap. You can see real examples in our projects gallery.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Alkorplan 2000 and the premium ranges?
Alkorplan 2000 is the standard 1.5 mm range with lacquered solid colours, focused on the best value for money. The premium ranges step up to 2 mm thickness and include textured, embossed or stone-imitating finishes at a higher cost. For a classic residential pool, the 2000 is more than enough.
Which colour should I choose for turquoise water?
For the classic turquoise blue, Light Blue is the safe bet. If you want brighter, lagoon-style clear water, White is ideal. Remember that shell depth and the light in your garden intensify or soften the tone, so we recommend seeing physical samples before deciding.
Can Alkorplan 2000 be installed over an old pool?
Yes. Reinforced membrane is the star solution for refurbishing mosaic, concrete or polyester pools with leak problems. It is installed over the existing structure, forming a new, watertight membrane. Check our reinforced membrane for old pools service.
How long does the Alkorplan 2000 range last?
With correct maintenance and professional installation, between 10 and 15 years. Controlling water chemistry and regular waterline cleaning are decisive in extending its service life and preserving the colour.
