BASIC HEX SERIES PORCELAIN TILE

Pool tiles are specifically engineered to withstand the harsh conditions of aquatic environments, including continuous water exposure, chlorine, and extreme temperature changes. Their dense, non-porous composition ensures long-term performance in submerged and outdoor areas. In contrast, standard indoor tiles aren’t built for these conditions and may crack, stain, or degrade over time when used outside or in wet zones.

Porcelain is extremely durable and easy to maintain, though it may not deliver the shimmering look of glass. For a decorative alternative, explore our zellige-look porcelain tiles, which offer a handcrafted, artisanal feel.

With proper installation and care, top-quality pool tiles - especially glass and porcelain - can last 10 to 20 years or more. Keeping your pool chemistry balanced and following care guidelines from the TCNA will help maximize longevity.

Avoid using abrasive cleaners or tools that may scratch the tile surface. Always use pool-safe adhesives and grouts rated for underwater use. For added protection, consider waterproofing systems like Basecrete.

Glass and porcelain tiles are the most popular for pool settings. Both are non-porous, durable, and low-maintenance. Glass tiles offer rich color and depth, while porcelain delivers unmatched durability and design variety.

Choose tiles rated for outdoor use - typically textured glass or porcelain with anti-slip properties. Our 2cm porcelain pavers and coping offer both beauty and traction for pool decks and lounge areas.

Porcelain pool tiles are incredibly versatile and can be used in waterlines, pool interiors, spas, patios, and even kitchens. Their durability and moisture resistance make them ideal for virtually any setting - indoors or out.
