terasetööstuses

Terasetööstus, also known as terrazzo production, is an industrial process that involves the creation of terrazzo, a composite material made from marble, granite, or other natural stones mixed with cement or resin. The process begins with the selection and preparation of the aggregate, which is typically crushed stone or marble chips. These aggregates are then mixed with a binder, usually Portland cement or a resin, to create a homogeneous mixture. The mixture is poured into molds or forms, where it is compacted and allowed to cure. The curing process can take several days to a few weeks, depending on the type of binder used. Once cured, the terrazzo is cut to the desired size and shape, and any necessary finishing touches, such as polishing or sealing, are applied. Terrazzo is commonly used in flooring, countertops, and other decorative surfaces due to its durability, aesthetic appeal, and resistance to wear and tear. The terrazzo industry is a significant contributor to the global construction and building materials sector, with production facilities located in various parts of the world.
