Italian term or phrase: inerte d'impasto
parla di una pavimentazione "tipo" terazzo veneziano:

fondo giallo chiaro con inerte d'impasto di bianco di asiago di piccola pezzatura

Potrebbe essere "inert mixture"??

Explanation:
materiale inerte da aggiungere all'impasto; inerte perchè a differenza del cemento o di altri leganti non esplica nessuna azione, viene solo aggiunto/aggregato; nelò calcestruzzo si tratta di ghiaia (gravel)

l'inerte é il "bianco di Asiago"

d'impasto è superfluo/pleonastico
