Marine Terrazzo from Recycled Seashells

OSTREA : the marine terrazzo made from Recycled Seashells

OSTREA marine terrazzo is entirely produced in Brittany, specifically in Rennes, France. It transforms shell waste into an eco-friendly material.

Ostrea Raw Material - Contract Furniture Store

It is a non-porous and homogeneous mineral material. The OSTREA material comprises 65% seashell flakes in a 35% mineral matrix mixture. The seashell flakes can be composed of mussel, scallop, or oyster shells.

The raw materials used for crafting OSTREA material are exclusively sourced from France. The seashells used in OSTREA material production come from oyster farms, mussel farmers and seafood houses in Brittany, Pays de la Loire and Nouvelle-Aquitaine. The minerals used in OSTREA material production are also of French origin.

The OSTREA material has a very low carbon footprint.

Ostrea Colour Pigment Options - Contract Furniture Store

OSTREA material is available in either a polished or satin finish, in a variety of sizes and edge profiles, and is suitable for a wide range of interior and exterior applications.

Furthermore, the aesthetics of the OSTREA material can be customised by varying the particle size of the shell flakes and/or by adding natural pigments for colour to complement designs and create unique patterns.
