Food Industrial Kitchen Flooring and Pharmaceutical Industry Floor Systems

According to federal laws, it is crucial to have durable, hygienic food and pharmaceutical industry floorings that can endure constant foot traffic, is quick and easy to clean, and can withstand harsh conditions. These types of floors require USDA approved seamless flooring that reduces the chance of bacteria and mold growth. In addition, many of these applications require the use of quarter-round ‘cove’s’ to be made where the floors and walls meet, since these areas can grow bacteria if not coved, and are difficult to clean. ArmorPoxy offers a complete line of cove materials and tools to supply coves that integrate into their floor systems.

Food processing and pharmaceutical facilities have a high need to install industrial kitchen and plant flooring. For example, they present a variety of challenges that make adequate industrial kitchen floor coatings essential, including contact with potentially corrosive liquids and fluids, and the need for regular high-pressure cleaning. ArmorPoxy manufactures urethane mortars that can handle hundreds of degrees of ‘thermal shock’ from steam cleaning cold floors. Meat packing facilities, which contain frigid freezers and walk-in coolers, require flooring that can handle extreme hot and cold temperatures. Areas such as commercial kitchens, cafeterias, and wineries must be able to hold up against the acids contained in oils, sugars, and even dairies, which are capable of breaking down the exterior of traditional floor coatings. Food industry flooring and industrial kitchen flooring must also possess stain-fighting capabilities for when things get messy. All ArmorPoxy coatings can have nonskid additives added to them to reduce the chance of slippage when wet or greasy.

Resisting Unwanted Odors

Not often realized, is it possible for an industrial kitchen floor coating to emit odors that can actually be transferred and absorbed into the food products being produced. These unwanted odors and tastes may even make the final product unacceptable and not consumable, thus wasting valuable time and resources. By selecting an industrial kitchen floor coating that is low/no VOC or water based, you are virtually eliminating the likelihood that this type of odor transference will occur in a food processing environment.

Temperature Variation Constraints

When selecting a food industry flooring system for your facility, is also incredibly important to keep in mind that often in these types of spaces, temperatures will vary. While one part of your facility will bring cool or cold extremes, others will see warm or hot conditions. The floor in a facility must be structured to handle both hot and cold temperatures, and able to cure under a very broad range.
