The Vetrazzo story began in 1996, when a scientist from Berkeley, California, who was fascinated by the properties of glass, invented an entirely new product. He developed an innovative mix of recycled glass that could be used to create highly durable, beautifully coloured slabs.
Now manufactured in Tate, Georgia (just outside Atlanta), our artisans craft each individual slab with care, and each piece of glass is placed by hand. Vetrazzo is truly the epitome of advanced design, skilled engineering and painstaking artisanal knowhow. The result is an authentic work of art that tells a story in every incredible surface!
Each Vetrazzo slab requires:
A slab can be made of 100% recycled glass.
Vetrazzo is the logical choice for consumers and professionals who care about the ecological impact of their projects, especially for LEED buildings:
Over the years, glass from sources as surprising and varied as old traffic lights from a city in California, all kinds of jars, windshields from cars or architectural glass from skyscrapers has gone into Vetrazzo mixes. And as these glass sources evolve, the engineers in Tate are always seeking similar pre- and post-consumer glass to maintain continuity in our collections. We make sure that each slab is unique, even those of the same color blend.

Vetrazzo is the logical choice for consumers and professionals who care about the ecological impact of their projects, especially for LEED buildings:
- We are committed to highest sustainability standards
- Our engineers are always looking for ways to integrate new glass sources and other materials, such as the oyster shells
- We use pre- and post-consumer recycled glass from local curbside recycling programs to reduce our carbon footprint
