What does that mean??

The biggest difference offered by Horizon International in the Terrazzo Veneto Paving range is the method of manufacture. Our pavers are created/pressed from a 200 ton Italian Chisea paving press. The use of the 200 ton hydraulic process removes excess air and moisture from the paver, this provides multiple benfits to you, the customer:

1. Veneto Pressed Pavers are colourfast.
2. Identical Pavers:- Because every paver is produced from the same mould their plan dimensions are identical. This means they are easier to lay to tighter tolerances.
3. Increased Density:- The pressing process increases density throughout the paver – raising abrasion resistance for high traffic areas and allowing tougher cleaning without damaging the surface. Veneto Pressed pavers can be cleaned hard without causing damage.
4. Increased Strength:- Increased density and range of thicknesses results in higher breaking loads required for commercial application.
5. Veneto Pressed pavers don’t suffer from efflorescence.
6. Lower Porosity:- Pressing at 200 tonnes also lowers porosity, which decreases the cold-water absorption rate.
