Swimming pool tile thickness varies based on material and manufacturing style. Generally, porcelain pool tiles maintain a consistent thickness of approximately 1/4 inch regardless of size or format. Glass tiles, however, exhibit a wider range. At AquaBlu, we offer Venetian glass tiles (5/8 x 5/8 to 3/4 x 3/4) from brands like Bisazza, Murrine Mosaics, and Trend, all with a 4mm thickness. Pressed, sintered glass, such as Vidrepur, also measures 4mm. Cast glass, exemplified by American Glass Mosaics and Hirsch, is typically 6mm thick. Crystal glass, including selections from Artistry in Mosaics, Anthology, and Aquatica, ranges from 6mm to 8mm. These curated options, sourced from leading manufacturers, are all suitable for pool and spa applications. Since only the tile's face is visible after installation, we recommend selecting a tile from AquaBlu that aligns with your desired aesthetic, weather it be glass or porcelain pool tile.
