Terrazzo Alternatives

ACI has spent years developing the techniques to install a unique polished terrazzo flooring system that is cutting edge, beautiful, low maintenance and one-of-a-kind. Terrazzo finishes produce a highly reflective surface that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but reduces the amount of lighting necessary which cuts electrical and maintenance costs and increases durability.

All of these steps seal the floor and polish it to a matte, satin, or glossy finish. ACI uses environmentally safe methods.

Broadcasting aggregate into cement can create some unique and elegant finishes, it can be infused with different color combinations of unique aggregate, designer glass fragments, and even glow-in-the-dark engineered stone.

The Process

We offer two options for terrazzo flooring: epoxy and cement. The difference between the two is the mix matrix. The price difference is material and installation. Both materials use the same aggregate sizes (marble, glass, shells, etc.).

The cost fluctuates depending on the aggregate used. The least expensive per pound is lighter earth tone marble chips. The most expensive per pound is cobalt blue and abalone. The price for both systems includes the use of divider strips.

Divider strips are a very important factor for both systems that allows for long-term floor stability during contraction and expansion, the same as control joints for concrete. Every surface is unique to your design and color combinations. Polished cement terrazzo is a great alternative to some terrazzo systems.
