Don't let your flooring floor your safety or staff
Friday, 06 September, 2013
Flooring systems in food preparation areas must comply with Australian and New Zealand food processing legislation. When a national food manufacturer in Queensland was establishing a new food processing facility, the company had to ensure that the flooring system was easy to clean and maintain on a daily basis; non-slip; and fume safe to ensure it would not taint food during and after its installation.
The company found that the Epirez Supatuff FG (Food Grade) flooring product met all three requirements and had Supatuff applied on the floors and covings.
The facility was completed to specification and all legislative requirements were met. The company was happy with its floor’s non-taint and low-odour properties. Its tile-like surface has proven easy to clean and non-slip so HACCP requirements and personnel safety have been assured.
The seamless hygienic flooring coat is abrasion and chemical resistant and is available in a range of colours. It was tested and approved by CSIRO, Australian Standard AS2542.
The floor coating is suitable for use in food manufacturing establishments, hospitals, educational facilities, catering establishments, dairies and nursing homes.
