White Shadow Mix

Beauty and environmental responsibility are the hallmark of Granite Transformations’ newest glass mosaic tiles – Cosmic, White Shadow and Unity. The recycled glass used in its manufacture produces a translucent luster that adds beauty and depth to kitchen backsplashes, fireplace surrounds, bathroom vanities or almost any place that needs a splash of color and style.

Cosmic Mix

Using every-day recycled bottles and glass containers Granite Transformations produces 15 different colored mosaic tiles that make up the “Feel” collection. The new Cosmic, White Shadow and Unity mosaics combine warm shades of tan, brown and red glass in varying patterns.

Tiles are made using traditional ¾” x ¾” recycled glass mosaic pieces that are then formed into pre-grouted 4-foot by 10-foot sheets eliminating the time consuming and messy grouting process. Lasting beauty is ensured by the use of latex grout that will not crack and never needs sealing, virtually eliminating the problem of ugly, stained grout. Resistant to chemicals, stains, water absorption and frost they can be used in either exterior or interior locations on both flat and round surfaces.

All of Granite Transformations’ products are created following the philosophy of commercial and environmental objectives that strive to deliver sustainable outcomes. Its Sebring manufacturing facility uses the latest techniques to save energy and water, reduce waste and use recycled materials wherever possible. These efforts have earned the company membership on the United States Green Building Council.
