Interior and exterior concrete flooring Sassoitalia flooring: traditional, natural beauty that blends perfectly. BLENDS WITH THE LANDSCAPE This is natural flooring for exteriors and interiors that evokes the great Italian tradition of the “washed stone” effect. It is perfect in historical and environmental contexts where there are special constraints because the use of natural material from local provenance ensure excellent integration with the surroundings. IDEAL FOR RESTORATIONS SassoItalia is usable on freshly placed or old concrete, making SassoItalia the perfect product for new build construction or renovation projects. It’s extremely flexible because it requires a thickness of only 2 to 4 cm over existing concrete. UNIQUENESS AND CREATIVITY The flooring becomes unique and original thanks to the option of customising the surface by selecting from a range of chip types( round or split, various dimensions, various markings), colours and combinations with other materials: valuable marbles, bricks, river stones, natural stone. A solution that allows great creativity and design freedom. APPLICATION AT A GRADIENT The protrusion of the stone chips makes the surface rough and non-slip, the perfect solution for creating ramps, roads with gradients and north-facing footpaths. An advantage for vehicular traffic, it also prevents people falling accidentally. CARS OR TRUCKS - NO PROBLEM Its continuous structure makes the flooring surface resistant and suitable for vehicles, without the risk of subsidence. Moreover, the thickness is established on the basis of the load-bearing requirement of the flooring. For this reason, the flooring is suitable for a lot of traffic, including vehicular: squares, public pavements, avenues and historic centres. LONG-LASTING The flooring is long-lasting due to the resistance of the single-slab structure, created with a glue that allows perfect anchorage to the existing base. To maintain its appearance over time, SassoItalia® surfaces can be treated with special protective, dust-proof and anti-absorption resins. In particularly cold areas or in direct contact with seawater, special sealants are available that make the floor completely unassailable by external agents. REDUCED INCONVENIENCE In a few days, it is possible to walk on the new flooring due to the high-speed process and the rapid hardening of the surface, cutting down the labour times. Even in restoration works, the original flooring does not need to be demolished, thereby avoiding the inconvenience and additional costs. INSIDE TOO, FOR VENETIAN-STYLE FLOORS Sassoitalia® can also be used inside to create very beautiful “Venetian-style” floors, a type of polished and extremely smooth surface typical of the Veneto region. With antique, timeless beauty and great aesthetic value and sophistication, the Venetian-style floor reached its period of greatest splendour in the 17th century, stylishly decorating the interiors of the great villas of Lombardy-Veneto.
