Terrazzo flooring is a luxurious, high-end flooring option that is made up of marble, granite, or glass chips set in cement or resin. It can be installed as a seamless sheet or in small tiles, and it can be used to create unique patterns and designs.
An art form itself, terrazzo can be truly stunning in a broad range of spaces. Architects, interior designers and homeowners love terrazzo for its customizability, durable nature, and easy to maintain nature.
If you're looking for a unique and eye-catching flooring solution, terrazzo may be the perfect choice for you. Terrazzo flooring comes in many forms, with different types offering flexibility for each project’s needs. With so many benefits to terrazzo, it’s no surprise it’s one of the most popular flooring options available.
Epoxy terrazzo offers a low-maintenance, durable solution with a high degree of surface resistance. This is the most economical type of flooring on the market thanks to its longevity. With a limitless color range of epoxies that can be combined with all types of aggregates, glass and shells, epoxy terrazzo also offers unparalleled design options.
This kind of terrazzo is ideal for exterior use because of its unique ability to allow moisture to pass through from the concrete slab below it. Cementitious terrazzo has more design limitations than epoxy terrazzo, with a reduced amount of colors available, but a wide enough range of combinations is achievable to result in long-lasting and attention-grabbing terrazzo floors.
This is a form of terrazzo that is shaped via a mold/cast, grinded and polished before installation. Many countertops, benches and wall panels are made via the precast option, as well as stairs and baseboards.

Terrazzo is a highly popular choice of flooring material that’s made through the combination of marble, glass and decorative aggregates. These materials are then combined in either a cement or epoxy matrix before being ground and polished to result in a beautiful, seamless and smooth floor finish.
Epoxy terrazzo is almost limitless in where it can be installed, catering to a wide variety of indoor spaces. This choice of flooring is common amongst areas that experience high foot traffic, including schools, airports, hospitals and hotels. It’s also commonly used in residential and commercial settings, providing a wide range of colors and finishes as well as a reliable, durable flooring finish.
While terrazzo offers many benefits in terms of design opportunities and aesthetic preferences, it’s also highly practical. With no grout lines, epoxy terrazzo removes the risk of bacteria or mold growing in spaces that must meet a high level of sanitary requirements. As terrazzo is easy to clean and maintain, often requiring no replacement throughout its life cycle, this flooring material is found in all kinds of high-use residential and commercial environments alike throughout the world.
It’s not uncommon for terrazzo to last as long as the building it’s in, with terrazzo from 100 years ago still taking pride of place in historical buildings. When epoxy terrazzo is poured-in-place, its lifespan sits between 40-100+ years with adequate care.
Terrazzo floors offer durability and longevity, allowing the initial investment to last over the lifespan of the building itself. Although epoxy terrazzo may have higher initial installation costs than less durable flooring choices, it equates to the lowest life cycle cost per year of any existing flooring system.
