Master Kitchen Floors
Multiple industrial kitchens use tile on their surfaces. But the latest trend in Yuba City is peeling off old tiles, exposing the concrete underneath, grinding it perfect, and laying epoxy coatings. Yet, a few people hesitate when considering epoxy coats in commercial kitchens. So, we’d like to respond to some common questions about epoxied flooring in kitchens.
Are Concrete Floors Too Hard?
Tile floors are not known for being comfortable. Epoxy coatings can be adapted so that it has a feeling of give as you move on it. Regardless of the type of coating used underneath, most cafes and industrial-grade kitchens select rubber mats to ease the legs and feet.
Is Coated Concrete Easy to Sanitize?
Epoxy floors are seamless, so no food or bacteria can hide between grout lines, cracks, or seams. Microorganisms have next to nothing to hang onto. Restaurant kitchen employees appreciate the ability to effortlessly rinse the flooring by hosing them down with water, then using a squeegee to send the water down the drain. By requesting the option of coved flooring, the base of your walls is additionally guarded from spills and dings. A quick cleaning with some water and cleaning solution is all that’s needed to get rid of spills and preserve sanitation.
Are Epoxy Floors Appropriate for Work?
It is true that shiny epoxy flooring in showrooms and retail stores can be slippery when wet, but their floors focus on aesthetics, not practicality. That doesn’t hold true when you apply epoxy topcoats for a kitchen floor. By adding roughness or a no-slip finish to your epoxy coats, your surface can have more friction than tiles or vinyl. In fact, many industrial or commercial kitchens in restaurants use epoxy coatings because they offer stronger traction with the proper topcoat.
