If you’re surfacing a space for industrial-scale cooking, baking, or brewing, you’ll want strong, hygienic, hard-wearing floors. You’ll also want to make sure that it’s has good slip-resistance, abrasion-resistance, doesn’t trap diseases, bacteria, and mould, and can easily take the heat of a working kitchen or manufacturing facility. Industrial-grade polyurethane screeds are a great, solution that can cover a lot of space – fast. All finished PU screeds rate as food-safe for up to ten years. They’re seamless, easy-to-install, and adaptable to almost every space and need.
What Is Food-Grade Flooring?
Food-grade flooring is any floor that can provide an insulated, friction-heavy, fully-level underfoot surface for regular use in an active catering, storage, or preparation space. Composite polyurethane resin screeds make up the majority of modern food-grade floors. Kitchens, breweries, dairies, and warehouses all use these screeds to enhance usability, longevity, and resistance.
A high quality screed is a healthy protective barrier against bacterial and viral build-up, debris retention, and dangerous long-term cracking and pitting. Each screed offers strong protection against impacts, burns, and chemical spills. Having quality, well-maintained food-grade flooring in place is a legal requirement for UK businesses and manufacturers. You may be liable if you fail to provide safe, hygienic food-grade flooring.
