Application of Terrazzo and Selection of Aggregate

丨Terrazzo application scenarios

Terrazzo can be used for overall seamless design, and it is rich in color, stronger and more durable than ordinary terrazzo flooring. Application scenarios are also very extensive, generally including home decoration, tooling, and commercial parts. It is usually used commercially in schools, airports, hospitals, hotels, office headquarters, large shopping malls and other commercial buildings. The scope of tooling includes workshops, underground garages, hydropower stations and other places with high fire prevention requirements.

丨Selection of terrazzo sample aggregates

Will you choose to use aggregates with large particle sizes or fine particle size aggregates? Don't worry, there are plenty of options to choose from, and you're sure to impress all designers looking for a new type of floor décor design.

With the popularity of the new inorganic terrazzo in today's era, the sample pattern is also colorful, and there are different combinations of aggregate and original mortar colors, so that each project can find an exclusive design. Inorganic millstone manufacturers can provide designers and other construction professionals with excellent millstone designs and develop new samples.

Or take a control sample from a previous project and create a brand new sample that best suits the project. Designers can use their own aesthetic evaluation materials and even find new design inspiration for project design. After successful sample proofing, it will be expanded during construction to achieve better visual effects.

丨Inorganic millstone sample: marble fragments

Marble, quartz stone, and granite are the most commonly used millstone aggregates. Many quarries across the country offer a unique selection of stone aggregates, which vary in color and texture. There are many mines in Hebei in China that specialize in floor aggregates.

丨Inorganic terrazzo sample: glass aggregate

After the waste glass is recycled, it can be used as inorganic grinding stone aggregate. Glass aggregates have a crystal clear, durable decorative effect. Recycled glass fragments can come from products such as bottles, mirrors and TV screens and can be used in the design of inorganic terrazzo.

Today, glass aggregate millstones appear in many millstone products, especially kitchen and bathroom countertops. Glass chips show a more vivid and colorful appearance than marble chips, which can help draw attention to the product, or the use of clear glass can be combined with light-colored grinding stone mortar to achieve a translucent effect.

丨Inorganic terrazzo sample: shells

Another option for inorganic terrazzo aggregates is to use shells. Millions of shells accumulate on shore every day and can be used in many products, including millstones. Local beaches and coastlines around the world offer some of the most beautiful shells. Today, one of the most beautiful and commonly used shells used in millstones is mother-of-pearl.

These shells offer a different appearance compared to marble and glass fragments. Some shells reflect off the floor to a dazzling effect. This is an alternative way to find ways to help protect certain resources of the planet. 

丨Inorganic terrazzo sample: mixed aggregate

The design of inorganic millstones is endless, and designers can mix various aggregates to find a design that meets the needs of the project. The hybrid design allows the ground floor to have an unbeatable advantage, especially in commercial areas such as large shopping malls.
