FAQS

WHAT MAKES THE CARLO SCARPA TERRAZZO INLAY UNIQUE?

The Carlo Scarpa Terrazzo Inlay is distinguished by solid marble inlays embedded directly into a terrazzo field, forming a refined, continuous surface. Joints are intentionally minimized, allowing the geometry and material contrast to take center stage. The result is a timeless, architectural expression inspired by the work of Carlo Scarpa, where precision, proportion, and material integrity define the design.

ARE THESE TILES SUITABLE FOR OUTDOOR OR POOL USE?

Carlo Scarpa Terrazzo Inlay tiles may be used on exterior vertical surfaces and select outdoor floors when properly waterproofed. They are not recommended for submerged conditions or high-acid environments, such as pools, without specialized treatment or engineering approval.

WHAT MATERIALS ARE USED IN THESE TILES?

Each tile is composed of a high-strength Portland cement base combined with natural marble aggregates and mineral pigments. Solid marble elements are carefully inlaid, then the tile is hydraulically pressed, cured, rectified, and honed to a smooth matte finish-ensuring both durability and visual refinement.

HOW SHOULD CARLO SCARPA TERRAZZO TILES BE MAINTAINED?

Routine maintenance is simple:

  • Use pH-neutral, non-abrasive cleaners only
  • Avoid acidic or harsh chemical products
  • Wipe spills promptly to prevent staining
  • Reseal periodically based on traffic and exposure

For interior installations, a matte wax finish may be applied for added surface protection and longevity.
