Terrazo is a composite material made of binding agents and chips. These chips are made of marble, quartz, granite, glass, or other rock materials. These chips are poured into the cementitious binder.
Terrazzo flooring is divided into metal strips. After chips are cured into the binding agent, the terrazzo floor is ground and polished smooth or otherwise finished to produce a uniformly textured floor.
There are a few unique choices while considering terrazzo. The concrete or epoxy binding material can be pigmented, taking into consideration a limitless scope of shading choices, and other interesting aggregates can be utilized, for example, chips of glass, metal, mother of pearl, or abalone shells.
