Resyn provided food-safe flooring for food and drink manufacturer
Food and Drink Manufacturing
As part of their commitment to maintaining high hygiene and safety standards, the company’s chief engineer contacted RESYN requesting a robust, hygienic, anti-slip resin floor and kerbing solution within their food processing facility. With a secure bond to the substrate, combined with the impervious finish created with a resin flooring solution, a high standard of hygiene can be achieved.
The existing coatings on the concrete substrate had begun to wear down and needed to be completely removed. Once removed, the concrete substrate was prepared to remove any contaminants prior to the application of the new resin floor. Due to production timelines, some of the machinery within the manufacturing area could not be removed. As a result, the RESYN installation team had to create a toe in detail around the edges and drainage channels to provide a smooth transition.
Following a comprehensive consultation with the company, it was agreed that the Degafloor FB system was the most suitable solution for the project. The aggregates broadcast into the resin enhances the systems slip resistance, even under wet conditions, ensuring high levels of safety are maintained for their staff members. This resin system has excellent durability and can withstand the foot-traffic and heavy machinery within their busy food facility.
To maintain consistency within the area, RESYN were also responsible for overcoating the existing kerbs within the area.
To avoid disruption to the company’s production schedules, the area totalling 265m2, was completed over 3 consecutive weekends. The fast-curing MMA system meant that the floor was back in full use within 2 just hours of installation, ensuring the factory could return to the processing of their condiments as usual on the Monday.
A member of the engineering team at the food manufacturing plant commented: “All involved with the project were delighted with the new flooring, particularly its anti-slip properties and the fact that the works were carried out with minimal disruption to production.”
