Best Splashback Tiles For White Kitchen

This range gathers 89 wall and splashback tiles suited to white and off-white kitchens, from crisp subway and brick shapes to kit kat mosaics, hexagons and marble-look porcelain. They work as a full splashback behind the cooktop and sink, or as a feature strip that ties in with white cabinetry and stone benchtops.

Shapes and looks

You'll find squares, rectangles, subway and brick tiles, plus kit kat (finger mosaic), hexagon, fishscale and pennyround shapes. There are also terrazzo, travertine, Carrara and concrete looks, along with crazy pave and Zellige-look options if you want a more textured, handmade feel. Larger 600x600mm and 600x1200mm formats sit alongside small mosaics down to 23mm x 23mm, so you can go for a clean sheet or plenty of grout lines.

Colours and finishes

Colours stay in the white family: White, Bone White, Ivory, Silver and Carrara White. Finishes include matt and gloss, plus honed, grip, tech grip and in/out for tiles that carry across other areas. Gloss bounces light around a small kitchen, while matt keeps things softer and hides marks a little better.

Materials and origin

Tiles here are porcelain or ceramic, made in Italy, Japan and Spain. The Japanese ranges include hand-glazed and kit kat styles with subtle colour variation across each piece. Slip ratings run from P2 up to P5, with some polished; on a splashback slip rating isn't a concern, but the info is on each product page if a tile also suits floors.

How to buy

Coverage is listed per box in m² on every product page, so work out your splashback area first, then add around 10% for cuts around powerpoints and window reveals. Ask us if you're unsure how many boxes you need.

To check colour and finish in your own light before you commit, order up to five samples for $15, and that $15 is credited to your first order. Whites read differently against warm and cool cabinetry, so it's worth holding a sample against your benchtop and joinery.
