Improve the Safety of Concrete Flooring in Food Processing Plants

Food Processing Plant Concrete Patch Kit Improves Safety – How Tuff Industrial Patch Kit #604-FP Can Help Improve Safety in Food Processing Plants

Food processing is one of the largest segments of the U.S. economy.  Meat and poultry processing, breweries, and dairies are all under strict regulations from the USDA, FDA, and OSHA.

Safety is a major concern to ensure:

  1. The health and safety of plant personnel.
  2. The safe handling/processing and storage of all food products.

Some of the challenges faced by Plant Managers are maintaining a hygienic and easily cleanable floor surface, providing proper traction for fork truck and pedestrian traffic, and providing a surface that is resistant to the thermal shocks that are prevalent.

Food processing plants are subject to a higher risk of contamination by bacteria, mold, and fungi, loose materials from a peeling floor can be easily spread into the final product.

Being educated on the available floor and wall systems for food and beverage plants is vital in deciding what coatings are the best choices for your facility.  Tuff Industrial Products manufactures a full line of USDA-approved epoxy and urethane patch kits along with various chemically resistant floor and curb coatings.  Our products have been installed in dairies, meat, poultry, and beverage plants, as well as in restaurants and commercial kitchens.

Keeping your food processing operation up to code and running safely is a tough task.  Contact us today if you need any assistance or have any questions, please check out our website at tuffindustrialproducts.com, or call 1-800-475-0068.
