Floor coatings for the food industry
production hall

One of the most demanding industrial sectors for flooring is the food processing industry. In addition to mechanical and chemical stresses, thermal loads are often a major challenge for industrial floors in the food industry. As well as ensuring compliance with legal requirements, these diverse sources of stress must be considered in conjunction with occupational safety regulations.
Remmers industrial floors for the food industry can fulfil all these requirements with Remmers Crete PU concrete systems, including the corresponding certificates and tests.

  • Food certificate
  • Extremely high durability & chemical resistance
  • Thermal shock test up to +180°C
  • Can be given anti-slip properties
  • Emission test
  • Fire class certificate
  • Hygiene/cleaning certificate
  • Certified safety and correct planning as the basis for durability and longevity

    In the food processing industry in particular, stringent demands are placed on hygiene and occupational safety despite the extreme stresses encountered. In addition to careful documentation on the suitability of the products used, the floor must also function in practice, not just for a few years, but ideally for the entire planned service life. Nothing is worse for an upcoming audit than renovation measures under time pressure.
    With well over sixty years of regional, national and international market experience, we know what really matters.

    Remmers Crete PU concrete systems

    The PU concrete systems from Remmers are the perfect solution for all areas where the flooring is subjected to extreme thermal, chemical and mechanical stresses and therefore has to be exceptionally durable.  

    Thanks to the coordinated system components, a wide range of requirements in the food processing industry can be met with optimised system solutions from the Remmers Crete PU concrete systems. For instance, the surfaces can be finished with a compatible blinding material for texture, giving the floor slip-resistant properties that meet the applicable guidelines for workplaces.

    Industrial floor coatings in the food industry with Remmers epoxy resin systems

    In the food industry, a floor need not always be exposed to high temperatures. Certified floor coverings for use in the food industry are also required in wet areas, corridors, laboratories, packaging warehouses or, in some cases, assembly areas, but the load is lower there. Here, products and systems based on epoxy resin have been a tried-and-tested solution for many years. With their combination of special binders and suitable fillers, these ideal systems can be configured to suit diverse areas of application.

    Fast refurbishment.
    Durable protection.

    In the food industry, refurbishments often have to be carried out during operation in order to reduce downtime. As a result, there is often very little time available and this is exactly where Remmers systems come into play.

    By using the Crete ACC accelerator, creation of the coating structure in the Crete system can also be accelerated in every work step, from primer to coating and sealer.

    Thanks to the unique Crete ACC accelerator, it is now possible to achieve a fully refurbished, resilient floor in just two days. This means that you can even get the job done quickly and easily over the weekend.

    Requirements of the 4 main segments in the food industry

    • Production of dairy products
    • Meat and fish processing
    • Production of confectionery and baked goods
    • Beverage production and bottling

    Expertise lies in the detail

    Base regions, expansion joints or connections to drainage channels – these are often the places where floors start to show the signs of heavy wear. It is therefore essential to plan these details very carefully and implement them professionally.
    Remmers detailed and special solutions are designed to perfectly meet the requirements of the planned flooring. They are based on high-quality system products and therefore guarantee maximum durability.

    Why are proper cleaning and care so important?

    Proper and regular maintenance protects the floor system and ensures that its value is maintained for a long time. This preserves the appearance of the floor and significantly extends its useful life. At the same time, only on a clean floor can strict hygiene standards be adhered to and minor damage or cracks be detected at an early stage and eliminated with little effort, avoiding major damage and major remedial measures in the future. We will be happy to put you in touch with appropriate specialists and send you our cleaning and maintenance instructions.

    Advantages and properties of high-quality floor coatings for the food industry

    Temperature-
    resistant

    Industrial floors are exposed to high and low temperatures, especially in the food industry. Remmers Crete systems fulfil the highest requirements in terms of temperature resistance. In the right system with up to +180 °C.

    Resistance

    Large quantities of goods are produced and moved every day in the food industry. Stainless steel containers and industrial trucks put a lot of strain on the floor. Remmers floor coatings are robust and abrasion-resistant to withstand these loads.

    Chemical-
    resistant

    Remmers floor coatings also offer long-lasting protection against chemical and thermal stresses such as cleaning chemicals, grease, oils, blast freezers and cooking containers.

    Large system selection

    Floors for the food industry must fulfil a wide range of requirements. Remmers systems offer customised solutions with all the required properties.
