5 Benefits of using Epoxy Floors to Maintain a HygienicSurface in Commercial Kitchens
Introduction
In commercial kitchen terms hygiene is of the utmost importance which is a given
that we process large volumes of food in these areas which in turn see a great deal
of spillage, grease accumulation and bacterial growth. What we have found to be the
best approach in which to present a clean and safe environment is through the use
of epoxy flooring. Very durable with a smooth finish and chemical resistant, what we
are seeing is that epoxy has become the go to choice for restaurants, hotels and
large scale food processing units.
In this blog we present our top 5 benefits of using epoxy floors for a healthy and safe
kitchen.
1. Non-porous and smooth surface.
Unlike what we see with concrete or tiles which do break and develop grout lines that
are a microbe’s haven, epoxy floor finishes provide a shine and are non porous. Also
with no porosity they don’t absorb liquid, oil, or food particles which in turn prevents
microbial growth and easy daily cleaning.
2. Best at repelling Chemical, Stain, and Grease.
We do not require harsh cleaning agents, detergents, and de-grease solutions which
are typical in commercial kitchens. Epoxy floor finish is a deterrent to severe
chemicals and oil spills which means the surface will not break down or be a host to
contaminants. Thus it is ideal for areas which see a great deal of cleaning in order to
maintain sanitary conditions.
3. Quick clean up and Easy care.
Epoxy floors require only a daily clean with approved products for maintenance.
Avoid collection of dirt and food as there are no grates and seams which also in pure
functionality makes the floor easy to keep which is very much the case in commercial
kitchens that have fast turn over.
4. Safe and Non-Slip.
Safety is primary in food prep areas that have a high issue with spills. We use
anti–slip finishes in epoxy floors which we tailor for better traction, which in turn
avoids the issue of accidents while at the same time we maintain the clean state of
the area.
5. Economical and long lasting.
Epoxy floors are resistant to impact and very durable which in turn makes them a
great choice for heavy use in busy kitchens. We also see that they have a large life
span and low maintenance which in the long term plays into our hands with epoxy
floors that also promote great hygiene and safety.
Conclusion
For kitchen operators that put priority on clean and safe environments epoxy flooring
is the best in terms of hygiene, durability and easy maintenance. It is chemical
resistant, has no seams, and is anti-slip which in turn gives a very safe and sterile
work setting. Also restaurant and food business owners may see to it that they are in
compliance with health codes and at the same time extend their kitchen floors’ life by
going for epoxy flooring.
