Transforming Food & Beverage Environments...

Food manufacturing environments are exposed to a wide variety of corrosive by-products and contaminants including fats, hot oils, blood, sugar solutions and natural food acids which can penetrate the clean zone, resulting in uncontrolled bacterial growth.

Combined with a natural silver-ion based antimicrobial, Polygiene®, which is locked into the matrix of the resin material and serves to destroy a host of bacteria on contact, our food and beverage flooring systems achieve one of the cleanest finishes possible.

The joint-free finish of our cementitous urethane flooring systems eliminates the cracks and crevices associated with tile and vinyl finishes that are often found to accumulate dirt and bacteria. The durability of the cementitous urethane resin allows for impressive resistance to a number of acids and sugars, and the rigorous steam cleaning techniques associated with the food processing industries.

Flowcrete North America has the right flooring solution for all areas contained within the food and beverage manufacturing environment:

Bakeries

Bakeries are subject to one of the most dangerous and corrosive by-products found in the food industry: sugar. Durable floor coating systems that provide a tough, thick and chemical resistant seal coat layer can help to eliminate the risk of sugar eating into the surface of floor as well as keep other potentially harmful contaminants at bay.

Blending & Bottling

Beverage production and bottling plants are clean room environments demanding high levels of purity and sanitation.

These areas are often exposed to medium-high traffic as well as heavy equipment and machinery, therefore require flexible floor and wall coatings that can take the strain while at the same time meet food-grade hygiene standards.

Commercial Kitchens

Commercial kitchens are responsible for producing hundreds of consumable food products every day, whether that is fresh meals or pre-cooked convenience food. As a result, these areas demand hygienic flooring systems that can destroy any bacteria that represent a threat to human health (such as E-coli, salmonella or staphylococcus) as soon as it lands on the floor.

Dairy Processing

Dairy processing plants are environments that require hard-wearing, long-lasting floors and demand rigorous hygiene regimes due to constant changing conditions: wet and dry manufacturing processes.

Flowcrete North America offers products with impressive slip resistance in both dry and wet conditions.

Fruit & Vegetable Processing

In the fruit & vegetable processing sector the demand for floor finishes is significant because they must withstand heavy traffic, high temperatures and thermal shock. They also need to be resistant to various fruit and vegetable acids, sugars, flavorings and preservatives as well as the chemicals used for cleaning, not just the floor but also the plant and equipment.

Freezer & Cold Storage

Freezers and cold storage require specialty floor coating systems that can be installed at low temperatures and in damp conditions, as well as cure in a short turnaround time to reduce client downtime and the associated risk of food spoilage in renovation projects.

These systems have low odor, avoiding any unpleasant taste or smell onto food.

Meat and Fish Processing

Slaughtering areas and seafood processing plants are heavy-duty environments exposed to punishing conditions including aggressive cleaning methods and contaminants including blood, grease and oil.

These areas require tough floor coatings with added hygiene protection and a high grade texture to prevent slips, trips and falls when surfaces are wet.
