Food Grade Floor Install
Client: Food and Drinks Manufacturer
Product: PU Screed Pumadur RT supplied by RESDEV LTD at 9mm thickness and in 2 colours.
Project Background
Our first industrial floor of the year has been installed in Kent for a leading supplier of alcohol, vinegars and condiments to the food and drink manufacturing industries.
This food preparation business required a hard-wearing floor for their new vinegar preparation area, able to cope with both foot and fork lift traffic. We therefore installed our PU Screed Pumadur RT supplied by RESDEV LTD at 9mm thickness and in 2 colours – Chelsea Blue and Red.
Prep Work
Surface preparation including diamond grinding the surface, removing upstand tiles, basing out and infilling with epoxy motor as required and installing a scratch coat with broadcast of DKI 0.8-1.2mm over all areas. We started the installation with Chelsea Blue and then installed the red. The final few days were spent recutting and infilling joints and installing the cove.
The Process
The 2 colours allowed us to clearly demark the forklift area in 70m2 of red, with the 232m2 of foot traffic area (along with 125mm cove) in Chelsea Blue. Installing the product at 9mm allows the surface to be steam cleaned for cleanliness.
This product is specifically designed for use in food and beverage processing environments subject to thermal shock & cycling, chemical exposure and wet process conditions.
As you can see, our client is left with a fresh new floor ready for the rigours of food preparation!
