Heritage Glass, Inc. is a colored glass aggregate supplier to the terrazzo industry. We have been in business for more than 30 years and strive to be the supplier of choice by setting new standards for customer service, creativity, efficiency, and high quality. Heritage Glass has developed a way to process recycled glass into an aggregate for terrazzo flooring and countertops. Heritage Glass aggregate has a desirable, multi-dimensional shape and permanent colors not found in natural marble aggregates and they produce beautiful terrazzo.Our aggregates are made from post-consumer and post-industrial glass with a minimum 98% recycled content. Terrazzo flooring is an excellent example of a low-maintenance, durable, "green" flooring choice. An epoxy terrazzo floor will have the lowest annual cost of maintenance compared to any other flooring product.In business since 1978, Heritage Glasshas a unique production process andproduct that is second to none. Recycled Content:Heritage Glass aggregates are a minimum 98% to 100% recycled. Our product is perfect for any green building project. Using recycled glass aggregate in your building project may help achieve LEED?(R) certification. A certificate of recycled content is available for each color batch of glass at the time of shipment. Please request the certificate when placing your order. Color:Heritage Glass aggregates are vibrant, transparent colors that add to any design. Our aggregates are unique to our company and are colored completely through and not painted. Heritage Glass aggregates accomplish dazzling effects not found with other aggregates like marble, metal, plastic chips, or crushed scrap glass.

We have taken our already sparkling colors and added a silver coating to them. When silver-coated colors are ground in application, the color reflects back a jewel-like color with intense clarity. This effect can be put on almost all of our standard colors. This is a premium priced product. Durability:Heritage Glass aggregates are non-porous and resistent to most acids. The hardness and abrasion resistance of glass aggregate exceeds that of many traditional materials used in terrazzo. It wears well with a range of hardness of 4.5-6 on the MOHS hardness scale. Our glass may be used as the only aggregate in a specific installation or it may be combined with marble to give a particular color accent.Availablity: Heritage Glass prides itself on a consistent availability with thousands of pounds in stock and short lead times.
