It may not be officially summer in the Northern Hemisphere yet, but it is swimming pool season. Pool and outdoor trade shows are in full swing this month, with Crossville Studios showing off our vast array of pool and outdoor tile collections at the Southwest Pool & Spa Show in San Antonio and The Everything Under the Sun Expo in Orlando.  

If you want to be able to dip into your new swimming pool or entertain in your new outdoor kitchen or outdoor living area this summer, now is the time to get started. Did you know that Crossville Studios offers a vast selection of tile collections suitable for your outdoor projects? Let’s look at some of our practical, durable, and beautiful outdoor surfacing offerings.

Pool Tile

While pool tile is known for adding eye-catching aesthetics to swimming pool and spa areas, these exterior tiles also serve an important purpose by supporting a cleaner pool environment at the waterline. Because these waterline tiles are constantly subjected to moisture, extreme temperatures, chemicals, and other elements, they must offer exceptional technical performance. In addition to our many pool tile offerings, we also have specialty glass suitable for full lining. (These tiles use 100% recycled glass made in America and boast the fastest turnaround times in the industry.)

Decks, Coping, and Pavers

Because exterior floors can make a big visual impact, the surface material must be aesthetically pleasing — but it must be durable enough to withstand the foot traffic and the harshest weather conditions. There's also the matter of enhanced traction. All of our decking tile and exterior flooring tile feature surfaces with enhanced traction for safety. With superior outdoor performance in mind, we offer many selections of porcelain decking, coping, and pavers, as well as natural stone and pebble flooring options.t

Exterior Wall Surfaces

Exterior wall cladding solutions are the perfect way to add the finishing touches to your outdoor design. Use exterior cladding to create unique design features, add aesthetic appeal, or create a visual barrier between spaces. Our outdoor wall tile and cladding solutions are fade—and weather-resistant and naturally long-lasting.
