This empowers architects and designers to craft original, aesthetic, and functional spaces tailored to specific needs.

Where to apply?
The modular system is ideal for:
• city squares and parks;
• hotel and business complex areas;
• university and school courtyards;
• pedestrian zones, promenades, plazas;
• commercial and recreational spaces.

The result
• A long-lasting and sustainable urban furniture system,
• Design that encourages people to stay, relax, and connect,

• Product surface: polished and coated with a protective varnish, resistant to UV rays, resembling natural granite.

• Our concrete products are made of fiber-reinforced, high-strength concrete with a uniform terrazzo structure, which not only increases resistance to mechanical and environmental stress but also provides an aesthetically appealing and visually striking appearance. Polished or textured surfaces feel pleasant to touch, are easy to maintain, and resist dirt and stains. All surfaces are coated with a special protective layer that effectively guards against moisture, frost, UV rays, and urban pollution. Because of these qualities, the products are ideal for use in various public spaces—cities, resorts, parks, or residential areas.
  Terrazzo is a high-quality, homogeneous decorative concrete structure in which fragments of marble, granite, glass, or other minerals are evenly distributed throughout the product mass. After careful grinding and polishing, the terrazzo surface becomes smooth, velvety soft, and subtly glossy, while maintaining exceptional resistance to wear and external factors. This technology not only ensures long-lasting concrete quality but also allows for creating custom design solutions that fit well in both modern and historic urban contexts.
  These are top-quality concrete products designed for long-term use. They stand out for their durability, functionality, and visual value which remain relevant even in intensively used spaces.

Concrete Finish:

• The concrete products are made from C 40/50 class concrete, meeting the strength requirements according to European standard EN 206-1.
• The concrete part is made of at least C 40 concrete with a natural granite or marble chip finish (2-5 mm fraction). The chips are not glued to the surface but are incorporated directly into the product structure during the manufacturing process.
• The surface finish features exposed polished concrete, which is additionally coated with UV and water-resistant varnish, giving it a "Wet Look" appearance. This not only enhances the aesthetic impression but also protects the tables and benches from environmental impact, extending their service life.
• The desired concrete color can be selected from the options provided in the manufacturer’s gallery.

Wood:

• Pine wood
• Resysta® – an advanced, highly durable and eco‑friendly material ideal for outdoor furniture and small architectural elements.
  Resysta® is an innovative material perfectly suited for outdoor use: for furniture, terraces, facades or small architectural components.
  Made of 60 % rice husk, 22 % salt and 18 % mineral oils, Resysta® resembles tropical wood in appearance and feel, yet far surpasses it in resistance, durability and lifespan.
• Iroko, exotic hardwood. Iroko wood is one of the most popular and durable wood types, which, when selected properly, ensures impeccable aesthetics and resistance to changing climatic conditions. The Iroko wood used in urban furniture is a tropical hardwood, highly resistant to temperature fluctuations, moisture, and winter cold.
• The products are impregnated with oil 3 times or lacquered and prepared for outdoor use. Colors: Available color variants from the manufacturer.
• The thickness of the wooden slats: 3-4 cm and more.

Terrazzo – premium-quality decorative surface made from marble and granite aggregates

Terrazzo is a luxurious, long-lasting and high-quality composite stone material made from marble, granite, quartz or other natural stone aggregates, bound with cement or epoxy. Due to its high content of decorative stone, Terrazzo delivers unique aesthetics and superior technical performance that clearly surpasses traditional concrete products.

Its surface is refined through a meticulous grinding and polishing process, revealing the natural stone mosaic and creating a premium, seamless finish. Terrazzo is denser, smoother, moisture-resistant and far more durable than ordinary concrete, making it ideal for both interior and exterior use.

Thanks to these qualities, Terrazzo is widely used for outdoor furniture, small architectural elements, planters, benches, countertops, stairs, façade details and other decorative products. It maintains its beauty and durability for many years, even under heavy use and changing weather conditions.

Differences between Terrazzo and traditional concrete products with granite aggregate

1. Composition
   • Terrazzo: contains a high amount of marble and granite aggregate, giving the surface a seamless, luxurious look with rich colors. Each product is like a natural stone mosaic, where the stone is the main component and the binder only strengthens the structure.
   • Traditional concrete: the stone component is only a small fraction, while the base consists of cement and gravel. As a result, the surface often looks monotonous, flat, and less aesthetic.
2. Structure and density
   • Terrazzo: due to its dense structure and low porosity, the material does not absorb moisture, dirt, or other contaminants. This provides durability and resistance to frost, heat, and mechanical impact.
   • Concrete: is porous and more absorbent, so it wears out faster, cracks, or accumulates dirt, especially outdoors. Moisture can also damage the structure, particularly in cold climates.
3. Surface finishing
   • Terrazzo: the surface is ground and polished in several stages, revealing the natural stone pattern, colors, and texture. This finish not only enhances beauty but also makes cleaning easier.
   • Concrete: the surface is usually rough or only minimally smoothed, resulting in uneven light reflection and more difficult maintenance.
4. Aesthetics
   • Terrazzo: provides a luxurious, rich, mosaic effect appreciated by architects and designers. Each product is unique – the aggregate pattern never repeats, creating a distinctive impression.
   • Concrete: looks simpler, uniform, and less decorative, so it does not always give interior or exterior spaces a distinctive look.
5. Durability and longevity
   • Terrazzo: can last for decades as the surface retains its color, shine, and texture. Its wear resistance allows intensive use – both indoors and outdoors.
   • Concrete: wears out faster, loses color, absorbs dirt and moisture, and requires more maintenance and frequent renovation or restoration.

By choosing Terrazzo, you select a premium material that brings long-lasting beauty, uniqueness, and professional, architect-approved design to your space.
