Terrazzo
What is Terrazzo?
Terrazzo is a composite material, poured in place or precast, used for floor and wall treatments. It consists of chips of marble, quartz, granite, glass, natural stone, or other suitable materials, bound together with a binder (for chemical binding), polymeric materials (for physical binding), or a combination of both. Metal strips often divide sections or create changes in color or material in a pattern.
Additional chips may be sprinkled atop the mix before it sets. After it is cured, it is ground and polished smoothly or otherwise finished to produce a uniformly textured surface. “Terrazzo” is also often used to describe any pattern resembling the original terrazzo floors.

Epoxy Terrazzo
Epoxy terrazzo allows designers to create any design, offering high performance and sustainability. Gulf Arab Crete supplies and applies materials to craft long-lasting surfaces for busy indoor spaces like airports, hospitals, and malls. It’s ideal when you need high-quality terrazzo flooring finishes for commercial spaces in Saudi Arabia.
Cement Terrazzo
Cement terrazzo uses a cement matrix with aggregates to form a thick, robust floor. The terrazzo finish concrete is durable, and while its color palette is less varied than epoxy, it produces beautiful earthy tones and can be used indoors or outdoors.
Terrazzo Finishes MOS
The Method of Statement (MOS) for terrazzo finishes outlines the step-by-step process for achieving a flawless, high-quality application. It includes surface preparation, mixing, application, curing times, and stringent quality control measures. Our MOS ensures precision, durability, and exceptional standards for your terrazzo flooring project. Download the full MOS to explore the detailed process we follow for outstanding results.

Homes and Apartments
Terrazzo adds a sleek, modern touch to living spaces while being incredibly easy to clean and maintain. It’s perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, and open-plan areas, including terrazzo vinyl floor tiles for a softer underfoot feel.
Airports and Transportation Hubs
With thousands of people walking through each day, terrazzo flooring installation in Saudi Arabia is ideal for places like airports and stations. It’s tough, long-lasting, and gives public spaces a clean, polished look that’s easy to keep tidy.
Schools and Universities
Terrazzo stands up to heavy foot traffic and daily wear, making it great for hallways, classrooms, and cafeterias. Plus, it’s safe, slip-resistant, and available in fun colors to brighten up learning environments, including terrazzo tile floors and décor.
Offices and Healthcare Spaces
From corporate lobbies to hospital corridors, terrazzo creates a professional and hygienic atmosphere.
01
Initial Consultation and Planning
At GAC, our team starts by meeting with you to understand your vision and needs. We’ll visit the space, take measurements, and discuss design options such as colors, patterns, and budget. This ensures that everyone is on the same page before work begins.
02
Subfloor Preparation
We begin by ensuring the concrete slab is clean, flat, and free of dust or loose debris. Our crew power-washes and sweeps the area, then treats it to remove any contaminants that could weaken the terrazzo bond. A solid, level base helps your new floor last for years.
03
Installing Divider Strips
Next, GAC craftsmen place metal divider strips onto the slab to create the pattern layout and control where joints will form. These strips guide the flow of the wet terrazzo mix and help create crisp, precise lines in the final design. They also prevent cracks from spreading across the floor.
04
Mixing and Pouring the Terrazzo
Our experts prepare the terrazzo mixture by blending cement (or epoxy), your chosen aggregates (marble, glass, or other chips), and pigments. We then pour this mix into the sections defined by the divider strips, using hand trowels and rollers to spread it evenly. This step brings your custom design to life.
05
Curing Period
After pouring, the terrazzo needs time to harden, usually several days depending on materials and weather. During this period, our team keeps the area protected from foot traffic, dust, and moisture. Proper curing is essential for a strong, long-lasting bond between the terrazzo and the subfloor.
06
Grinding and Polishing
Once the terrazzo is fully cured, GAC uses heavy grinders with diamond-grit pads to level the surface and reveal the embedded chips. We start with coarser grits and work our way to finer grits for a smooth finish. Finally, a high-speed polishing step brings out a glossy shine that highlights the beauty of your chosen aggregates.
07
Sealing
To protect your new terrazzo from stains and wear, we apply a specialized sealant that keeps the surface looking fresh.
08
Stage Wise Site Inspection As Per MOS
Our quality control team inspects the entire floor for any imperfections, fixing minor spots or inconsistencies as needed.
