Terrazzo
was first introduced approximately 500 years
ago by Italian craftsmen as a way to use leftover
marble pieces. Marble chips
were mixed with cement and used to create outdoor
terraces. Terrazzo is an Italian
word that means means when translated terrace.
Terrazzo
is virtually indestructible and can outlast
the building in which it was installed.
It is very easy to maintain. No chemical
compounds should be used when cleaning, therefore,
it promotes a healthy environment. The
cost and performance of terrazzo shower
bases outlasts any other type of flooring
which can cost up to 40 times the initial cost
during the lifetime of the shower. An
array of colors can be chosen to compliment
and enhance the beauty of your shower, kitchen
or wherever you choose.
