Glass tiles are frost proof, resistant to fading, discoloration, and chemical damage, and are impervious to water and stains. These properties make them suitable for home use, including backsplashes, swimming pools and spas, and various outdoor applications.
Because they contain glass, these tiles can also be more susceptible to chipping and cracking than ceramic tiles. They can disintegrate if they are not installed correctly, if placed in an area where they are exposed to sudden & extreme temperature change, or if they come in violent contact with hard metal objects. Always check with the manufacturer for specifications before you install.
