HYDRAULIC TERRAZZO
Our terrazzo tiles are handmade cement tiles pressed in a hydraulic press, with marble or glass fragments on the surface in addition to the usual marble and colour pigments. The combination of Demosaica colours and the different types of fragments gives rise to novel designs, which refresh a traditional material such as this one.
Available sizes of terrazzo
At Suelos Hidráulicos Demosaica we have a wide variety of different formats for our hydraulic terrazzo tiles, each one with a different style. If you need to try another tile format or if you need us to send you samples, do not hesitate to contact us.
Terrazzo colours
Like the manufacture of hydraulic tiles, hydraulic terrazzo tiles are handmade, made one by one, giving each piece a unique character in its tones.
The colour chart designed by Suelos Hidráulicos Demosaica is shown below.
Types of terrazzo grain
To make the hydraulic terrazzo tile in Demosaica we have three different sizes of marble grains and six colours to choose from: white, black, red, yellow, mixed and glass, so your tile will be completely to your liking.

WHAT IS TERRAZZO?
Our terrazzo tiles are handmade cement tiles pressed in a hydraulic press with marble or glass fragments, marble and colour pigments on the surface. The terrazzo is polished after drying in the open air.
CAN I CUSTOMISE TERRAZZO TILES?
Demosaica terrazzo is fully customisable, you can choose from 49 colours from our colour palette for the background and combine it with a wide variety of sizes and colours of fragments, thus achieving completely unique terrazzo tiles.
IS IT SUITABLE FOR PUBLIC AND COMMERCIAL SPACES?
Yes, terrazzo is suitable for public and commercial spaces. The fragments in the surface layer give it extra hardness for spaces with high traffic.
WHY CAN THERE BE SOME TONAL VARIATION?
All our products are completely handmade and therefore have variations in colour and tone, which is one of their main characteristics.
CAN COLOURS CHANGE OVER TIME?
Yes, colours are likely to change very slightly over time.
IS TREATMENT NECESSARY?
For terrazzo we recommend the application of a sealing treatment.
IS SPECIFIC MAINTENANCE NECESSARY?
Cleaning should be carried out with neutral soap and water, avoiding acid or abrasive products. We recommend a soft polish as a method to remove stains and surface damage.
HOW THICK SHOULD THE GASKET BE?
The joint between the Demosaica terrazzo tiles should be as thin as possible.
CAN TINTED GROUT BE USED?
The use of tinted grout is not recommended for any of our products as it may cause irreversible staining of the tile surface; always use white grout.
CAN THEY BE INSTALLED OUTDOORS?
Terrazzo tiles are suitable for outdoor use, taking into account that some colours may suffer slight variations due to the action of the sun and low temperatures. A thicker joint than usual (3-4 mm.) is recommended.
CAN THEY BE USED AS CLADDING IN WET AREAS?
Yes, terrazzo tiles can be used in wet areas provided they have been properly treated.
CAN UNDERFLOOR HEATING BE INSTALLED UNDER DEMOSAICA MATERIALS?
Yes, terrazzo tiles are an excellent thermal conductor so they are perfect for this use. For installation over underfloor heating, we recommend leaving a thicker joint than usual (3-4 mm).
