SEAMLESS TERRAZZO

SEAMLESS TERRAZZO

Terrazzo is timeless. Taking its name from 15th-century Italian mosaic artisans.

Terrazzo flooring is a composite material consisting of chips of marble, quartz, granite, glass, mother of pearls or other suitable material, mixed with a cementations or epoxy binder, and poured to form flooring. The flooring is grindings and polished smooth to produce a uniformly textured surface.

There are three main terrazzo production processes: mechanically made; hand-cast using traditional labour-intensive methods; or poured in situ (similar to screed). As well as traditional cement-based terrazzo, a more recent option is resin (or epoxy) based terrazzo.

If you’re in the market for durable, low-maintenance flooring ,  you have a concrete substrate, but you refuse to sacrifice style, take a closer look at terrazzo floors. A base of cement flecked with bits of aggregate, terrazzo is similar in appearance to polished marble or granite while allowing enormous versatility when it comes to incorporating design elements into the surface itself.

Thanks to the versatility of this seamless resin flooring, it provides the designers with the opportunity to think of the floor area as one considerable canvas on which they can create bespoke works of art.

Using an epoxy or polyurethane based system instead of concrete makes it easy to pour blocks of colored resin into any desired pattern.

Today’s terrazzo is solid, dense, and impenetrable, requiring no surface sealant, though polishing and buffing will bring out and maintain its lustrous gleam.
What is terrazzo made of?
The composition of modern terrazzo includes:
— marble chips;
— fine granite grains;
— syenite;
— dolomite;
— quartz and other natural stones and minerals.

They are the ideal solution for surfaces that experience high footfall and follow stringent aesthetic requirements. It is suitable to use terrazzo flooring is the perfect solution for a wide variety of applications, including schools, educational institutions, airports, hospitals, hotels, museums, galleries, government buildings, corporate offices, stadiums, retail and entertainment venues.

Using an Terrazzo to bind aggregates allows for an incredibly thin set system that consists of color and shimmering pieces of glass, marble or granite to create a smooth and luxurious floor finish. They are available in a variety of colors, chemical-resistant, and have high tensile-compressive strength.

For cementitious terrazzo there are no specific requirements to the substrate. Any slab, concrete screed or semi-dry screed will fit.

For epoxy terrazzo, the screed should be leveled perfectly. Tolerance of the floor should not exceed 5mm every 3m in any direction. For epoxy terrazzo can be installed directly over concrete and other flooring types, the installation costs are quite a bit lower. Pricing remains one of the biggest and the most immediate advantages you’ll find with epoxy flooring.
