Polyurethane floor coating is one of the many types of flooring systems that we can offer our customers here at PSC Flooring. The system is suitable for a wide range of industrial environments. However, it is commonly used in food processing environments. This is because polyurethane coating has a wide range if properties that are beneficial for food grade flooring such as being anti slip.

Benefits of Polyurethane Floor Coating

Enhancing Safety and Welfare For Staff

Health and safety is an essential factor to consider within the workplace. Polyurethane floor coating can help to support the safety and welfare of your staff. Every company needs to comply with health and safety legislation. Therefore, it’s important that you do everything you can to safeguard the workplace and prevent accidents.

Food-grade flooring is consistently subjected to spillages and water due to constantly being cleaned down. It is vital that even when wet, slip resistance is still achievable. Polyurethane screed flooring is excellent in this environment. This is because the floor coating has inbuilt anti slip properties that can help to lower the risk of falls and accidents.

 

Extremely Hard Wearing

Our heavy-duty polyurethane flooring system is one of the most hard-wearing floors on the market. It has been designed to withstand impact, abrasion and chemical spillages. Food and beverage manufacturing floors can be subject to extremes of heat.

With this in mind, floors need to be thermal shock resistant, especially near the ovens. Polyurethane screed floors are very durable and offer excellent thermal protection. In fact, they can withstand direct temperatures up to 120 degrees or up 130 degrees at 12mm.

 

Hygienic & Seamless Flooring

The benefits of the polyurethane screed in the food industry is that the floors are hygienic. They are seamless, impervious and do not support microbial growth. A polyurethane screed offers the maximum chemical protection of all resin products. Therefore, it can easily withstand exposure to the numerous acids and chemicals that would be used in the area.

Coving and rendering allow for a smooth transition from wall to floor. These processes make heavy-duty polyurethane screed floor easy to clean, whilst providing a seamless “box” finish for high sterile processes in the food industry.

Right For the Job

Our anti-slip flooring is available in a multitude of colours. As a result, you can colour code workstations and incorporate corporate branding into your flooring. The anti-slip floor paint increases safety and provides an attractive finish.
