Terrazzo Cleaner
Terrazzo Cleaner is a specialized, neutral to mildly alkaline cleaning formulation designed specifically for the safe and effective cleaning, restoration, and maintenance of terrazzo flooring. Terrazzo is a composite material consisting of marble, quartz, granite, glass, or other aggregate chips embedded in a cementitious or epoxy matrix, which is then ground and polished to a smooth surface. This cleaner is engineered to be non-acidic and non-etching to protect the calcareous (calcium-based) marble and limestone aggregates from chemical attack while effectively emulsifying and lifting embedded dirt, grime, oils, and stubborn stains. It penetrates the porous surface to release trapped contaminants without dulling the polished finish or degrading the grout lines. Industrial Grade Terrazzo Cleaner is formulated for daily, weekly, and restorative maintenance in high-traffic commercial, institutional, and residential settings. It is not intended for stripping heavy wax or polymer coating build-up unless specifically formulated for that purpose.
