Flooring systems in meat processing facilities have to withstand severe exposure which includes mechanical, chemical and thermal stresses.

The biggest challenges for flooring systems in meat processing facilities are generally in the production areas. They have to withstand severe exposure which includes mechanical, chemical and thermal stresses. The right degree of slip resistance is also required to meet the Health and Safety regulations.

NZ Specialised Coatings apply a range of Cement, Epoxy and Polyurethane resins for the specific environments.

Most production areas are ‘wet’ processing areas and generally require a higher degree of slip resistance which must also be easily cleaned due to fats and oils soiling the surface. A clean floor is obviously of crucial importance.
