Modern Terrazzo: Durable, Custom & Sustainable Surfaces

Overview of Modern Terrazzo

Combining classic craftsmanship with today's technology, modern terrazzo creates a continuous, speckled surface on floors, walls and countertops. The composite material is made of bright aggregates providing durability, wear resistance and ease of maintenance, making it suitable for a variety of uses from high-end hotels to residential kitchens and patio areas; It provides color, depth and texture to any space.

Advantages of Modern Terrazzo

Durable Aesthetic

With its combination of recycled aggregates and strong binders, modern terrazzo offers an adaptable and durable surface for all types of applications, including flooring, walls, countertops, and various uses for residential kitchens and bathrooms as well as commercial lobbies or other hospitality areas. The resilience of modern terrazzo enhances the overall beauty of the area.

Customizable Palette

The broad variety of aggregates, colors, and finishes makes it possible for designers to customize terrazzo based on their brand identity (i.e., the mood in a particular place) and create seamless integration between terrazzo and other materials such as wood, metal, or glass, thereby achieving a modern, cohesive rhythm.

Low Maintenance

Terrazzo surfaces are created to last long to withstand both spills and staining and so require very few routine cleaning products to remain bright and uniform; thus, reducing time spent cleaning and cost while supporting the aesthetic qualities of hospitality and the daily practicalities of residential settings.

Sustainable Materials

Modern terrazzo flooring uses recycled elements from glass, stone and binders that emit little/no emissions, thus minimizing negative environmental impacts while providing an upscale visual appearance consistent with sustainable building standards throughout their lifecycle. They can withstand normal use over time for many years and meet recyclability/reusability requirements at the end of their usable lives.

Modern Terrazzo

Terrazzo has become a sophisticated combination of recycled materials (aggregates), craftsmanship, and technical performance. Each slab of terrazzo is manufactured using Quality resins and quality stones, which provide a surface that will not stain, chip, or fade, while still providing a consistent colour and soft feel. Terrazzo is suitable for installation over underfloor heating systems, fast installation with minimal waste, and allows for smooth connections between sections of the flooring. Terrazzo also enables the use of bold and varied patterns in addition to providing lasting durability.

F&Q About Modern Terrazzo

What is modern terrazzo and where can it be used?

Today's terrazzo utilizes recycled aggregates mixed with a strong binder to produce a multi-functional, long-lasting surface. Use of this material as floor, wall, countertop or surface material is widely suitable for commercial or residential entry areas, kitchens/bathrooms and all hospitality-type spaces due to its durability and pleasing aesthetics.
An ordinary cleaning is performed on surfaces with a neutral pH cleaner and soft mops, so as not to dull the surface finish. To maintain gloss, surfaces should be periodically resealed or polished. The quick response to spills will help to minimize staining and maintain colour integrity for the duration of its use.
Terrazzo can withstand weather conditions, UV rays, and extreme temperature changes when sealed and finished properly. Performance varies based on type of mortar used; therefore, choose an outdoor grade mix specifically designed for moisture control and slip resistance.
The use of recycled aggregates and low emissions binders helps to reduce the embodied energy of Terrazzo; however, its durability provides longer lifecycle and less need for replacement than most other flooring products. Also, by being recyclable at the end of their life, Terrazzo products provide additional environmental advantages as they meet green standards and demonstrate responsible material stewardship.
