The earliest mosaics date back to the 8th century BCE. Indeed, they were already used as decorative elements and paving in Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire. Yet, despite this long history, they remain as relevant as ever, continuing to set trends in contemporary design. Furthermore, in recent years, mosaic techniques have evolved alongside new technologies and advanced manufacturing methods, giving rise to various types of coverings with diverse formats, styles, colors, and properties adapted to a wide range of functions. Among these, glass systems stand out particularly for their beauty, versatility, and physical properties.
Commonly used in swimming pools, glass tile coverings offer the primary advantage of near-zero water absorption, making them ideal for wet and outdoor spaces. While other surfacing materials present complexities when covering rounded areas, these systems can mold to any surface—including curves, stairs, or slopes—thanks to their flexibility and ease of application. Additionally, glass tile systems are available in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, textures, and color blends, allowing for endless unique designs.
