Advantages of Epoxy TerrazzoEpoxy terrazzo consists of marble, granite, recycled glass, shells and other decorative aggregates, which is mixed with an two-part epoxy resin and polished to create a highly decorative and seamless floor finish. Today, about 90% of terrazzo being installed is epoxy-based. The design flexibility, speed of installation, the introduction of crack suppression membranes and overall weight of epoxy terrazzo make it a popular choice among architects and designers.
Durability
Terrazzo is arguably the most durable flooring system today. When longevity and minimal maintenance is important in selecting a floor finish, epoxy terrazzo is perfect for high traffic settings. Terrazzo has an outstanding record of performance with each floor finish typically lasting the lifetime of any building structure.
Design Flexibility
Terrazzo gives architects and designers the flexibility to transform their floors to their desired aesthetic. Epoxy terrazzo comes with unlimited design and color options. The building material can tackle complex designs to form elegant and creative artworks. As a result, epoxy terrazzo is truly a one-of-a-kind flooring system in terms of design capabilities.
Ease of Maintenance
Terrazzo floors offers cleanliness to any indoor environment. Seamless finishes are easy to clean with daily sweeping and weekly mopping. The nonporous surface prevents the growth and spread of bacteria, mold and mildew; therefore, supporting a healthier space. These floors rarely need repairs nor replacements which reduces overall maintenance costs.
Overall Lifetime Cost of Epoxy Terrazzo

zero VOC emissions.

ENHANCING STUDENT LIFE
Today epoxy terrazzo is widely seen
throughout primary and higher education
facilities. With emphasis on creating indoor
environments that promote student success
through flexible spaces and innovative
designs, TERRAZZCO assists architects and
designers in transforming their visions into
durable, low maintenance and sustainable
finishes.
Thousands, if not millions of students will
walk among a school campus in its lifetime.
To combat the high foot traffic that occurs
daily, epoxy terrazzo is specified for school
construction projects.
Traditional flooring materials like carpet
and vinyl undergo frequent repairs and
replacement throughout its life cycle;
however, an epoxy terrazzo flooring system
is designed to last the lifetime of any
university or school building.
When adding epoxy terrazzo to either a
student union, classrooms, cafeterias,
residence halls, or any other part of a
school campus, terrazzo betters the student
experience.
Architects and designers can add a custom
terrazzo logo or artistic design that is visible
and welcoming to all students and faculty.
The design possibilities of epoxy terrazzo is
endless and can offer a design that is unique
to a school setting. These designs not only
promote student learning but have the ability
to boost school spirits yearlong and create
lasting memories of their school experience.

HEALING ENVIRONMENTS
Terrazzo flooring is an ideal solution for
maintaining a healthy building. TERRAZZCO
collaborates with architects and designers
to establish spaces that are functionally
sound and improves the healing process.
In fact, terrazzo is quite therapeutic. By
installing a terrazzo floor, hospital patients
can benefit from reduced stress, reduced
pain and experience faster recoveries.
Because terrazzo has virtually limitless
design capabilities and a wide color
selection, architects can design both a
beautiful and functional flooring system.
Options to include playful imagery
and bright colors creates engaging
environments for children’s hospitals, and
artistic patterns can provide directional aids
for patients
Other flooring options typically have bumpy
surfaces created by joints and grout lines
which can put patients through a painful
transit when rolling in a wheelchair or gurney
and can also make navigation with a walker
or crutches both difficult and dangerous.
A seamless terrazzo surface will enable
patients to move around with the greatest
ease and also lead to a quieter environment
for patients to heal and rest in.
Epoxy terrazzo does not support microbial
growth unlike carpet and tile floors that
contain grout lines which allow moisture
buildup and invite mold and other bacterial
growth. TERRAZZCO® Brand Epoxy is
GREENGUARD Gold certified, comprising
of zero VOC materials that exhibit no
off-gassing during installation and for the
lifetime of the flooring system.

MEMORABLE DESTINATIONS
TERRAZZCO works with architects
and designers to design airports with
the goal of offering passengers with a
superior travel experience. Airports and
transportation facilities are the gateway
to cities, and terrazzo can make all
the difference in helping owners save
on maintenance costs while guiding
travelers to their next destination.

over the world today on a massive
scale. Between new airports, airport
expansions and the renovations of
current travel centers, there seems to
be an abundance of large construction
projects where terrazzo can benefit the
traveler.
Gone are the days of old carpet
floors. With epoxy terrazzo featured in
airports today, travelers are witnessing
the impact these floors have in their
journey. Seamless epoxy terrazzo floors
help travelers stroll luggage along
more easily at reduced noise levels.
Some airports are using terrazzo’s
design flexibility to not only enhance
the appearance of its buildings but to
showcase artwork representing the city.
Terrazzo is truly a work of art and it
can be as complex or as simple as
the designers and owners desire. The
combination of limitless shapes and
logo possibilities as well as an endless
color palette, terrazzo flooring can
display almost anything and is truly only
limited by the imagination.
Airports remain busy all year long;
therefore, selecting building materials
that are durable to meet the demands of
constant traffic is a must have. Terrazzo
is the most durable flooring system
available on the market today, typically
lasting for as long as the building is
standing.
