Terrazzo Australian Marble offers insitu terrazzo, which as its name suggests is poured on site.
Ideal for applications such as hotels and clubs, retail spaces, office lobbies and high end residential building, insitu terrazzo results in a true seamless finish.
Insitu terrazzo is divided into panels measuring no more than 1500mm square, with an ideal bay size of 1200mm x 1200mm. Rectangular bays are possible, however one side cannot be more than 2 times the length of the other side.
Terrazzo panels will help to control movement and any subsequent cracking that may occur. It should be noted that insitu terrazzo will require on site grinding and polishing. It is available in several finishes including:
1. Standard sealed finish
- Honed on site
- Sealer polish is applied to the surface to protect from staining and abrasion
- Recommended for high traffic applications
2. Honed with impregnating sealer - Leaves no gloss on the floor
- Not recommended for high traffic areas as it may track
- Recommended for residential, shops and office foyer applications
3. Polished with impregnating sealer - Polished on site to the same degree as factory finished marble leaving a high shine floor
- Not recommended for high traffic areas as it may track
- Recommended for residential, shops and office foyer applications
4. Brushed Finished (Antiquing) with impregnating sealer - Polished on site as per honed finished
- Floor is then passed with brushes to give an antiqued appearance
- Floor can still have a sealer finish applied if desired
- It is not recommended for high traffic areas as it may track

Options 2 to 4 are non standard finishes and may result in additional costs.
