Poured terrazzo

Poured terrazzo combines a seamless surface with the character of natural stone. The aggregate is mixed into the material and ground after curing, revealing the grain in the surface.

Overview

Aggregate in a bound surface, ground to a single surface

The composition determines the look: the colour of the binder, the type of stone and the grain size. A fine aggregate gives a calm surface that reads as a single tone from a distance; a coarser aggregate makes the floor more outspoken.

After pouring, the floor is ground and sealed in several stages. The sheen is determined by the final grinding step and the chosen impregnation.

Because terrazzo is a heavy build-up, the structure is assessed in advance. In renovations a thinner variant is possible, matched to the load-bearing capacity of the existing floor.

  • Visible grain in a seamless surface
  • Composition made to measure: colour, type of stone and grain size
  • Sheen determined by the final grinding step
  • A very long service life under intensive use
  • Can also be applied to stair treads and window sills
  • Detail of fine aggregate in a terrazzo floor
  • Terrazzo floor in a retail interior

Applications

Suited to
