Strength in Style: Tile That Thrives Outdoors

When we design your outdoor spaces, we are designing for real life. Sun drenched afternoons. Sudden summer rain. Poolside gatherings. Quiet evenings under the stars.


Your surfaces must do more than look beautiful. They must perform beautifully.


Performance driven porcelain tile is designed to withstand moisture, temperature, heavy foot traffic, and prolonged sun exposure without compromising its aesthetic integrity. With Daltile, you can create an outdoor retreat that delivers enduring strength and refined style in equal measure.


This is modern American luxury engineered to endure. As the largest tile brand in the world, we design surfaces that elevate outdoor living while standing confidently up to the elements.

 

BUILT FOR THE ELEMENTS, DESIGNED FOR YOU

Porcelain tile offers low water absorption, exceptional density, and long-lasting color stability, allowing you to design with confidence in every climate. 

For a grounded architectural foundation, collections like Haddonstone™ offer the timeless elegance of natural limestone with enhanced durability designed for exterior applications. In a 2cm format, Haddonstone™ delivers elevated strength for expansive outdoor living areas, ensuring stability without sacrificing sophistication. 

If your aesthetic leans more contemporary, Assemble™ 2cm pavers introduce clean concrete inspired lines with the performance capabilities needed for decks and entertaining spaces. 

SEAMLESS FLOW FROM INDOORS TO OUT

One of the most impactful design decisions you can make is extending your interior aesthetic beyond the walls of your home. True performance driven design allows for seamless transitions that maintain structural integrity across environments. 
Beauty meets safety with StepWise™ slip-resistant floor tile. Our proprietary technology delivers 50% more slip resistance than standard floor tile*, without the need for a surface coating. Because the slip resistance is built into the tile, StepWise is easy to clean and will not wear off over time. With designs that transition seamlessly from indoor to outdoor spaces, it is the perfect solution for carrying your design from inside to out.

* When compared to tile meeting ANSI standards.

Large format Panoramic Porcelain Surfaces™ are designed for both interior and exterior applications, making them perfect for bringing stunning countertop visuals outdoors. This level of integration reinforces Daltile’s whole home solution approach, ensuring every surface works together seamlessly from entryway to exterior lounge.

From pool tile and outdoor wall applications to fireplace surrounds and every surface in between, Daltile offers the solutions needed to carry design seamlessly from indoors to out, creating stunning exterior environments. As the largest tile brand in the world, Daltile delivers the innovation, range, and technical performance required to design outdoor spaces that endure beautifully
