ABOUT ISLAND STONE & TILE
Our Journey
Back in the 1990's, a group of friends found themselves inspired by the raw beauty of Bali-its rainforest, surf breaks, and vibrant culture. Fueled by a love of adventure and design, they created the first mesh-mounted pebble tile, launching Island Stone & Tile. What started on a beach has grown into a global tile company, built on creativity, craftsmanship, and a bold spirit that still drives us today.
