Terrazzo Resin Flooring

Terrazzo is a smooth decorative floor tile that is made up of inert marble and epoxy resin. The floor provides high wear prevention and decorative finish for public spaces such as shopping centres, supermarkets, airports, and so on.

Historically, terrazzo was first discovered in Italy when quarry workers who were working saw some pieces of marble, took them home and used them on their floors. Those pieces were made into mortar form. No specific year or date can be said about the first made terrazzo floor, but stories have it that it was around some 600 years ago.

Till date terrazzo still has to do with tossing marble chips into cement. At first, the floors used to be rough and uneven, but with the application of refined polishing techniques and as more opportunities to add more colours and increase in thickness, terrazzo has become most people’s preferred choice.

Today Resin, as well as our ordinary cement, is what is used in producing terrazzo, although Resin is more expensive than the other components because it has a smoother finish and it’s highly resistant to any scratches and cracking compared to the rest types which makes it stand out. Another advantage of terrazzo made from a Resin material is that it’s very robust; it has a very long life span, seamless, and elegant, and that makes it unique.

How to cast terrazzo Resin floor 

First, having mixed both the resin and ordinary cement together, both are poured on the site to create something like a seamless floor. To make the surface beautiful and smooth, it’s then ground with a grinder and also polished. The ordinary cement is usually used for both the indoor and outdoor processes while the Resin is only used for the indoors only and also has an added advantage of little flexibility. To avoid water penetration, the terrazzo must be adequately sealed with durable material.

In trying to repair a lousy terrazzo floor, it must be fully re-grinded and re-polished. Our highly skilled and professionals in terrazzo making at Resin Flooring can also restore damaged floors, staircase, and cladding materials instead of changing everything completely, which makes terrazzo a better option. Repairing and replacing damaged terrazzo tiles rather than replacing the entire floor of a building is far more economical, and on the bright side, it saves you more money.

Why should you choose Terrazzo Resin for your floor?

With the advancement of modern technology, the combination of traditional terrazzo and advanced polymer technologies offers tremendous flexibility compared to the polished concrete, and it also demonstrates high strengths and also makes it possible for it to be polished earlier than most concrete. Also, terrazzo Resin flooring has an excellent adhesion surface which is well-prepared and will bond to marble and terrazzo. This is ideal for steps with edges. Another feature you should know about terrazzo is that it can retain heat effectively, making it a perfect choice for underfloor heating.
