Different types of terrazzo stone slabs and tiles
There are a few variations of terrazzo stone tiles and slabs available on the market in New Zealand that you should be aware of before making a final decision.
Cement-based terrazzo
Made with a cement binder, this type is traditional and offers a natural, matte finish but may require sealing for moisture resistance.
Epoxy-based terrazzo
Featuring a resin binder, this modern type is lighter, more flexible, and available in a wider range of colours, with a high-gloss finish and superior durability.
Precast terrazzo
These slabs are manufactured off-site and come ready to install, ideal for countertops, staircases, and other specific applications.
Venetian terrazzo
Characterised by large marble chips, this style has a more pronounced and luxurious appearance, often used in high-end projects.
Rustic terrazzo
This variant has a textured surface with strong slip resistance, making it suitable for outdoor spaces like patios and walkways.
How to choose a terrazzo stone slab or tile
Choosing a terrazzo product in New Zealand involves considering the intended application, its design and look and your practical requirements. For high-traffic areas, a durable choice, like an epoxy-based terrazzo, would work well because of its strength and wide range of colours. If you want something with a more traditional terrazzo appearance, a cement-based option will give you a classic, natural look but may need regular sealing for moisture resistance. For outdoor use, a rustic terrazzo with a non-slip surface is ideal, while precast terrazzo is perfect for custom installations like countertops or stairs. For outdoor use, think about your local climate and maintenance needs which may be more involved than indoor use. Finally, be sure to think about the aesthetic appeal of your entire space and how your choice will complement everything around it.
Other stone slabs that may be of interest
As well as terrazzo, there are some other great choices for stone slabs and tiles that you may want to consider as part of your decision-making process. For example, a natural stone option like limestone offers a natural, organic look that holds for decades with many applications. For those after an undeniably luxurious choice, it’s hard to surpass marble for its beauty which includes subtle variations of colour and veining. Last but not least, engineered stones offer the best of both worlds, engineered with precision for strength, durability and premium aesthetics.
