Sizes and finishes

How it is actually sold — measured off the spec sheet, not rounded.

Sizes

Glacier Pearl is made in 2 sizes. Size is the decision people skip and then notice every day: it sets how much grout line ends up in the field, and a larger module on the same wall reads calmer than a small one.

Where it works

The applications this surface is actually rated for.

Glacier Pearl carries a rating for flooring, at all of it at commercial duty.

Rated for

  • Flooring — residential and commercial

What to expect once it is installed

The ratings that decide whether the finished wall matches the sample.

Shade variation: Low

The maker grades tile-to-tile variation on this one as low. A single sample is a reasonable way to judge it.

Wear rating: PEI 3

Its abrasion class is PEI 3 of a possible 5, meaning walls, counters and normal residential floors — the usual rating for a kitchen.

Certifications

What it holds: Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified.

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Glacier Pearl itself, not from its name.

Forget the name for a moment. The swatch measures #E1E1DF — very light and essentially neutral — which puts it nearest Cream / Antique White in our pairing data. It sits close to neutral, which means it will take direction from the cabinets rather than fight them.

Cabinets

  • Sage Green — muted green loves creamy warmth. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials solid

Countertop

  • Green / Dramatic Veined Stone — dramatic green stone over quiet cream boxes. Against this surface it is much darker than this surface, so the tile reads as the light element current

Island

  • Walnut — Cream perimeter cabinets let a walnut island play the furniture piece, and cream forgives the slow amber shift walnut takes on in a sunny room.. Against this surface it is much darker than this surface, so the tile reads as the light element classic

Backsplash

  • Terracotta / Clay — Cream cabinets give terracotta tile room to glow instead of shout — the pairing ages like a Marseille farmhouse, better every year the glaze crazes.. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials current

Steer away from

  • Pure White — cream next to pure white makes the cream look dirty — pick one white family
