Terrazzo is a composite material made of chips like marble, quartz, granite, or glass embedded in a cementitious or epoxy binder. It offers a wide range of architectural and design possibilities but involves complex installation.
Suitable Climates: Generally suitable for most climates, but exterior use in very windy or freeze-thaw regions requires caution.
Benefits: Low maintenance, highly durable, sustainable due to recycled content, water-resistant, and offers unlimited design options.
Drawbacks: Potential cracking, slippery when wet, cold surface, and high upfront cost.
Applications: Floors, walls, sinks, countertops, and backsplashes.
