Terrazzo and Its Amazing Properties
Terrazzo is made up of recycled aggregate from other natural stone mixed with a binder to form one of the most visually appealing and durable natural stone floors. With Terrazzo’s unique patterns, aesthetics and strong durability, Terrazzo can find a home anywhere and fit perfectly. The wide variety of options from the color shade of the concrete or epoxy all the way down to the type of aggregate chips makes Terrazzo very customizable as it can be applied in any situation and display the appropriate and desired aesthetic that best suits its environment.
One can go for more of a traditional pattern or a pattern or design that is completely unique to that person. With Terrazzo’s design choices the only limit is the person’s imagination. Terrazzo’s durability is unparalleled and is suitable for residential, commercial, and even industrial areas. With a proper polish and seal the Terrazzo can endure high foot traffic and is resistant to most stains. On top of its incredible endurance, maintaining the Terrazzo is very easy and does not require much time. With only a damp mop to pick up any dust or dirt every other day, you won’t have to worry about constant maintenance. The polish also lasts for several years and will help maintain your Terrazzo’s bright and sparkling appearance. For those that are environmentally conscious, Terrazzo is locally sourced and consists of stones such as marble and granite that has been recycled from other projects. No grout lines mean no dirt can collect and Terrazzo itself is antimicrobial, making it ideal where health is of great concern.
Terrazzo is a durable, beautiful, unique, low maintenance, and a perfect option for the long term. Its initial cost of installation may be high, but it is a fantastic investment that does not require much to maintain and has a truly unique and stunning look. For businesses it keeps the customers feeling good and keep coming back while homeowners can make a good first impression with their guests. Whatever the case may be, anyone can find something to enjoy in a Terrazzo floor and that’s why it is one of the most popular natural stone floors for home and business owners.
