ECO-FRIENDLY (GREEN) MATERIALS: Huntsville Granite & Marble offers only one...
Vetrazzo® is an extremely durable and easy-to-maintain surface. It's comparable to granite in strength, scratch resistance, heat
resistance, durability, and care & maintenance.
Will it stain? Vetrazzo® is less porous than marble and concrete and equivalent to some granite. But you do have to care for it.
85% of the surface is glass, which is impervious to stain. However, acids (like red wine, lemon juice, and vinegar) will etch the matrix of
the surface (the concrete area between the glass) if not cleaned up right away. And staining agents (like coffee and tea) will leave a trace
if allowed to remain on the surface.
Luckily, like aged butcher block, marble, and concrete, signs of living can actually enhance the character of the surface. If you clean
messes up quickly, your Vetrazzo® will remain unchanged. If you are more carefree, you may appreciate the natural patina that develops
as you live with and enjoy your Vetrazzo® . Also, dark mixes and those with patina hide the signs of a carefree lifestyle remarkably well.
See what one Vetrazzo® customer had to say.
Need a lot of maintenance? No. It's mostly glass. Keep it clean with soap and water, (avoiding harsh abrasives). When the mood strikes
you, buff it with a wax a few times a year and reseal it once every year or two. Pretty simple.
Can you cut on it? Sure, but you’ll dull your knife.
Can you put a hot pot on it? Sure. It’s glass and concrete. As with any sealed surface, prolonged excessive heat could compromise the
sealant. So if you do this often, be sure to reseal periodically.
Durable? You bet. Vetrazzo® installations are in buildings that have seen millions of visitors since they've been installed and show no signs
of wear.
Can you dance on it? We’ll leave that up to you. (Careful not to slip).
Why is this the only one we offer? Simple: nothing else even comes close to Vetrazzo® ! Come and see.
