Terrazzo & Marble has supplied Terroxy Resin Systems to numerous airport projects around the world, providing highly durable, low-maintenance, aesthetically pleasing and sustainable epoxy flooring. The following characteristics make Terroxy Resin Systems by Terrazzo & Marble the ideal option for airport flooring:
- Durability: Terrazzo’s impeccable durability and strength are ideal for the numerous high traffic areas within airports including security areas, terminals, baggage claims, car rental facilities, restaurants, and retail stores. The seamless feature of terrazzo floors allows for travelers to commute from one side of the airport to the other at ease without the impediment of grout joints for their wheeled luggage, immensely reducing indoor noise. While the initial cost for other flooring systems might appear to be more affordable, they require more maintenance than terrazzo flooring. Other flooring systems such as carpet or vinyl tiles have to be replaced frequently, especially in high traffic areas, while terrazzo stands the test of time and typically lasts the lifetime of the building.
- Low Maintenance: Since airports are continuously operating during the day, the easier the maintenance, the better. Seamless terrazzo flooring allows for easy cleaning and sanitizing, and day-to-day maintenance only requires using a mop and a bucket of warm water. Terrazzo & Marble's Terroxy Resin Systems Epoxy Matrix also helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungus.
- Aesthetics: Terrazzo offers unlimited possibilities by allowing any imaginable combinations of colors, patterns, logos, and pictures. This allows designers and architects to create distinctive designs that create memorable branding for airports along with wayfinding graphics for easier commuting. Terroxy Resin Systems' special formulation does not allow for colors to fade or wear thin.
- Sustainability: Terrazzo has long been a recycled product and was created centuries ago by Venetian workers utilizing waste chips from slab marble processing. The following aspects make Terroxy Resin Systems a sustainable choice for airport flooring:
- Use of recycled content for aggregates
- Use of local/regional materials
- High durability, lasting the lifetime of the building
- Does not emit Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)
