Industry News: Horizon International’s terrazzo acquisition
Horizon International has cemented its reputation as an industry leader with Stevenson terrazzo acquisition.
New Zealand paving specialists Horizon International have purchased the Stevenson’s premier Veneto Terrazzo range of pavers.
Veneto pavers
“This is extremely exciting as the Veneto range is regarded as the Premium range of New Zealand manufactured pavers and will compliment Horizon’s existing range of paving products, ” said Horizon director Nathan Roper.
“Our intention is not only to continue to manufacture the product, but to broaden the range,” he said.
The VenetoTM range and custom Terrazzo award-winning tiles make a real statement inside or outside.
Aggregates such as limestone, pebbles, basalt chips and shell are added to the cement-based system, which is then processed into Terrazzo tiles. The honed surface exposes the matrix and mix design, and different coloured oxides contribute to the individuality of the mix designs.
The rich, smooth, Italianate look complements Mediterranean and minimalist architectural styles perfectly and can also be used to provide a stylish, contemporary twist to a villa or bungalow renovation.
Outdoors, VenetoTM or custom Terrazzo Tiles are perfect for patios, courtyards, pavement areas and pool surrounds.
Indoors, they make a beautiful and practical alternative to wooden floors, vinyl and carpet. Because they add thermal mass to the building, they help keep it warm in winter and cool in summer.
