Product Description

Heritage Glass, Inc., develops and supplies colored glass aggregate to the terrazzo industry for use in creating decorative and long-lasting flooring, walls, countertops, stairs, patios and landscapes.

Product Description, Applications
Heritage Glass, Inc., offers aggregates comprised of post-industrial and post-consumer recycled glass content. They are nonporous, resistant to most acids and may be used alone or in combination with marble or other aggregates.

Heritage Glass uses an innovative process for recycling and reworking glass bottles and window glass. The result is a unique terrazzo aggregate with a multidimensional shape and permanent color not found in natural marble aggregates. The color permeates the transparent glass, creating a luminous sense of depth not possible with aggregates such as marble, metal, plastic chips or crushed scrap glass.

Large quantities of aggregates can be custom blended and delivered for specific applications. Tumbling is also available for applications requiring quantities of smooth “beach glass” or river rock.

Features, Advantages

  • Specified for use by the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association (NTMA)
  • For use in both interior and exterior applications
  • Abrasion resistance and hardness of 4.5 – 6 on the Mohs’ hardness scale exceeds that of many traditional materials used in terrazzo
  • Fractured glass surface and multidimensional shape ensure a secure hold in epoxy or cement
  • When used with epoxy terrazzo, provides limitless design options for floors, countertops, window sills, tiles, patios and other projects
  • Any epoxy matrix color can be used with Heritage Glass aggregates to create a unique look
  • Offers the lowest life cycle cost of all commercial flooring when used in an epoxy terrazzo system

  • Custom colors or combinations available, and optional silver coating can be added to achieve a reflective sparkle effect after grinding

Warranty
