Pre-Cast Terrazzo
Introduction
Pre-cast terrazzo units can be created in almost any shape or size, depending on the complexity and application. All standard units are factory polished to a finished condition and delivered to site ready to install. Pre-cast terrazzo is well known for its strong and durable properties. Furthermore, in return for regular cleaning using warm water and neutral detergent (pH7), all units will retain their appearance almost indefinitely. Coved skirtings and stair units, in particular, are ideal for applications where hygiene is an important factor, due to their smooth, easy to clean surface.
Manufacturing
The pre-cast terrazzo is manufactured in two stages:
- Casting - All the standard profiles detailed are vibrated to an extent which forcibly removes entrapped air and compacts the marble aggregates ensuring maximum density prior to polishing.
- Polishing - Most standard pre-cast units are polished on automated machinery.
Standards
