Kaya Series Porcelain Tile

Pool tiles are specifically designed to endure constant exposure to water, chemicals, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations. They are non-porous, highly durable, and suitable for submerged and outdoor environments. In contrast, standard indoor tiles are not built for these conditions and may crack, fade, or degrade when exposed to moisture or outdoor elements.

Porcelain and glass are excellent choices. Porcelain is dense, water-resistant, and comes in a wide variety of designs. Glass offers vibrant color and reflective properties, ideal for waterlines and decorative accents. Natural stone provides a textured, organic look but typically requires sealing and additional maintenance.

Frost-resistant tiles prevent cracking from freeze-thaw cycles in colder climates. AquaBlu’s porcelain and glass tiles are engineered to withstand seasonal temperature changes, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Matte or textured finishes improve traction on decks and walkways, while glossy finishes highlight waterlines with reflective elegance. AquaBlu offers both options to balance safety and style.

Porcelain is strong and low-maintenance but lacks the reflective shimmer of glass. Designs like zellige-inspired or wood-look porcelain expand aesthetic possibilities.

Yes. Pool-grade porcelain is designed for full immersion, making it suitable for pool interiors, steps, and waterlines.

No. Porcelain’s low absorption allows it to be installed once clean and dust-free.

With proper installation and maintenance, pool tiles can last 10–20 years or longer. Adhering to TCNA standards and using quality waterproofing, adhesives, and grout extends their lifespan.

Porcelain is highly durable, resistant to water, chemicals, and temperature shifts. AquaBlu’s 2cm porcelain pavers provide additional strength and slip resistance for decks and coping.

Pool tiles typically range from 6-10mm. Glass mosaics are usually 6-8mm, while porcelain is 8-10mm. For high-traffic areas or decks, 2cm tiles offer added durability.

Avoid non-pool-rated adhesives, skipping waterproofing, or poor surface preparation. Use products like Basecrete and hire experienced installers for optimal results.

Glass and porcelain both perform excellently. Glass provides sparkle and reflection, while porcelain offers strength and easy maintenance. Ensure all tiles are certified for underwater use.

Textured, outdoor-rated porcelain is ideal for patios, decks, and walkways. AquaBlu’s 2cm pavers provide long-term slip resistance and durability.

Porcelain is versatile for spas, showers, bathrooms, patios, and kitchen backsplashes, offering moisture resistance and long-lasting performance across applications.

Pool coping is the edging between the pool shell and surrounding deck. It protects the structure, directs water flow, provides a slip-resistant surface, and gives a polished, finished appearance. Common materials include porcelain, travertine, and marble.
