Material Notice
As terrazzo (engineered stone) is hand made, it may show slight variations in grain size, colour, cement mix and occasionally small superficial cracks. These variations are inherent to the nature of the material and should not be seen as defects or quality problems. Like any other natural stone, terrazzo requires basic maintenance and attention to ensure its longevity and beauty. Use only products which are stated to be suitable for engineered stone or natural stone care.

Material General Care Advice
We only recommend pH neutral detergents for the care and maintenance of terrazzo or any engineered stone. Carefully read the instructions on the detergent’s label and if in doubt, perform a small test on an inconspicuous area. The use of acidic or highly alkaline detergents can damage the surface and should never be used. Wash surfaces with a soft cloth and a neutral pH detergent diluted in water following the recommendations of the detergent’s manufacturer. Acidic liquids commonly used such as vinegar, lemon, soft drinks, fruit juices, and wine can erode the material, causing stains. Avoid exposing terrazzo to chemicals and solvents, especially paint removers, that might contain trichloroethane and methylene chloride. Keep solvents, acetone, alcohol, paint thinners, detergents containing bleach, laundry bluing, highly alkaline liquids such as bleach, caustic soda or oven cleaners, acids, oily soaps, descalers, markers or ink, abrasive and micro-abrasive detergents and sponges away from the surface. avoid using any detergent not specifically designed for marble surface or engineered stone, especially acidic and highly alkaline detergents.
Material Protection
There are many waxes, sealants and surface treatments specifically designed for marble based engineered stones. These treatments help to enhance surface brightness, improve resistance and to protect from casual contact with staining liquids. While these products do offer protection and can extend the resistance period, they do not make a stain proof surface and will require reapplication from time to time.
