Rediscover the Hidden Beauty of Your Antique Terrazzo Floor!

27 August 2024

Terrazzo floors, once magnificent, can lose their original charm over the years. Daily wear and tear make them dull, dirty, and lacking the signature mirror-like shine they once had.


A neglected terrazzo floor not only detracts from your home’s beauty but also significantly reduces its value. Every step on that dull floor is a constant reminder of how aged the space has become, making you feel uncomfortable in your own living area. However, it’s important to recognize the hidden potential of these historic floors and appreciate their unique character.

Terrazzo, with its blend of marble and cement, tells a story of Italian craftsmanship and tradition. Despite its current uninviting appearance, these floors hold an intrinsic beauty just waiting to be rediscovered.


With the right care and attention, you can transform this seemingly outdated element into a true gem of your home. Imagine revealing the vibrant colors and intricate patterns hidden beneath years of wear. A restored terrazzo floor can become the focal point of a room, adding a touch of timeless elegance and vintage charm that many interior designers actively seek. Appreciating and enhancing these historic features not only improves your home’s aesthetics but also preserves its cultural heritage, creating a bridge between the past and present.



Pippolo’s company, with its exceptional artisanal skill and expert use of professional Marbec products, stands out as a true gem in the field of floor restoration. Their ability to bring terrazzo floors back to life is simply impressive, offering a perfect solution for those who want to restore their spaces to their former glory. The meticulous and highly specialized process they adopt is a true beauty treatment for your floor. Starting with a deep cleaning, followed by a precise pre-polishing, and culminating in an impeccable polish, Pippolo’s artisans literally transform your floor, making it shine as if it were newly installed.

Their expert use of high-quality products like SGRISER and the RED BUFFER PAD MARBEC for monobrush is truly commendable. These tools allow for a degreasing wash that goes far beyond simple surface cleaning. Penetrating the material’s microporosity, they remove years of accumulated dirt, preparing the floor for the next stages of the treatment.

Once the surface is thoroughly cleaned, the artisan skillfully applies the PRELUX DISC MARBEC. This micro-polishing step is crucial for eliminating micro-scratches and evening out the floor’s gloss, creating a perfect base for the final stage of the treatment.

The final touch, which transforms your floor into a work of art, is the application of KW STAR with the WHITE BUFFER PAD MARBEC. This step restores the material’s mirror-like shine, creating a breathtaking visual effect that will light up the entire room.


By trusting the experts at Pippolo, you’re not just restoring a floor; you’re giving new life to your home. Their ability to transform a functional element into a true jewel of beauty and refinement is truly admirable. The end result is not just a renewed floor but a completely transformed space that reflects elegance and attention to detail.

In conclusion, Pippolo’s company demonstrates that with the right combination of artisan expertise, quality products, and passion for their craft, extraordinary results can be achieved. Their service goes beyond floor restoration, contributing to creating more beautiful and welcoming living spaces—a true gift for those who love to live in well-maintained and aesthetically pleasing environments.

The artisan company PIPPOLO, specialized since 1991 in the treatment of stone materials in the Tuscany–Emilia region, carried out a restoration and enhancement of a terrazzo floor. The work included three main phases: a deep cleaning with SGRISER and a red pad to remove old treatments and incrustations; the hydrophobic protection with TON PLUS to prevent the absorption of liquids and revive the colors; and finally, the finishing with POLIFIN, a self-polishing metallized wax that provides brilliance and resistance to foot traffic.

Stone, a symbol of memory and endurance, changes over time and requires care. Products like TIXO and PULITORE FC gently remove smog and dirt, while ACTIV 3 restores and protects surfaces. Metals too, prone to oxidation, need specific cleaners that preserve their shine. Regular maintenance keeps the beauty and value of stones and monuments intact over time — a gesture of respect and remembrance.
