How to use Glass Tiles as your kitchen Splash back
Glass tile splash backs offer a range of benefits in the kitchen thanks to the sleek a smooth surface of the glass itself. This allows for ease of maintenance, a definite plus in any home kitchen! Thanks to the non-porous nature of glass, you will also find that dirt and moisture will not penetrate into the tiles themselves, once again offering a super simple to maintain option in the kitchen. There are many different glass tile splashback options to choose from ranging from traditional clear, coloured glass tiles to enamelled glass options and many more.
TRADITIONAL GLASS WALL TILES
Traditional glass mosaic tiles offer immense flexibility in their design possibilities. These tiles use a traditional glass that is either clear or coloured with a flat or rippled surface finish, creating a wondrous jewel-like appearance that reflects and refracts light throughout any interior space. There are many specific types of glass mosaic tiles that can even be used outdoors, being especially popular as a pool tile option. As glass is a non-porous material, the surface will not absorb liquids or dirt, making it exceptionally simple to maintain in the home while also making for a perfect choice of material for your pool as well as a glass tile splashback option for the kitchen.

The pairing of natural stone with the sleek surface finish of glass offers an excellent choice for those seeking to add more texture and character to their kitchen design scheme, making these options popular in classical, country or traditional styled interiors. It should be noted that natural stone tiles will require sealing in order to maintain a quality finish over time. The sealing process ensures that the tiny pores present in the stone’s surface are not clogged up with dirt or moisture which can often lead to possible erosion and staining. Your tile consultant at Perini Tiles will advise you during the tile selection process of what types of products are best suited to your natural stone tile selection.
MODERN ENAMELLED GLASS MOSAIC TILES

The tile is then fired in a kiln to achieve a smooth and incredibly hard surface finish that offers the flexibility and durability that is required of a floor tile option. Unlike traditional glass tiles, most enamelled glass mosaic tile options can be used as either a floor or wall tile solution, being especially popular in home bathrooms as well as a luxurious kitchen splashback. The surface is completely smooth, allowing for a simple clean-up process in the home while providing all the benefits of a non-porous material that will not absorb spills or splashes in the kitchen.
