Terrazzo is a type of flooring made of small pieces of rocks like marble or granite. They are set in concrete and then polished to make a smooth surface. Terrazzo comprises two main types of materials, or “matrices.” They are cement and epoxy resin. Today, there are different ways to install terrazzo systems. Let’s look more closely at the different types of terrazzo systems that are on the market today.
Types Of Terrazzo Flooring

Terrazzo Flooring abu dhabi By Epoxy Floorings Dubai Will Save You Time And Money
You can save money and time by pouring terrazzo over most surfaces instead of tearing up a floor and pouring a new concrete slab. It can be poured right on top of a surface already there as long as the surface underneath is strong and stable. Only when a tile is loose or broken, or the floor is made of a soft material like carpet, vinyl, or VCT, should a terrazzo overlay not be poured over it. It is quick and easy to pour epoxy terrazzo over an existing floor. Our experienced installers can use a trowel to spread the material one day, wait for it to harden overnight, and then polish it the next day. By choosing Epoxy Floorings Dubai, you can save money on building costs and make room in your budget for a terrazzo floor that will last as long as the building itself.
