Food and Beverage Processing Floors – high-volume food & beverage processing facilities present a unique range of challenges when it comes to their flooring needs. Typically, these facilities are routinely wet settings, with thermal cycling & shock concerns, high-pressure washing, as well as exposures to a wide variety of caustic byproducts and contaminants such as animal fats, oils, sugars, and food-related acids, which can have deleterious effects on the wrong flooring finishes.

Hygienic and Compliant
Food and beverage facilities require flooring that meets strict safety and sanitation regulations. ProREZ seamless, antimicrobial systems are engineered to prevent contamination, resist moisture, and support easy cleaning—making it easier for installers to deliver results that pass inspections and protect public health.
Fast Installs
In processing environments that can’t afford downtime or odor disruption, ProREZ fast-curing, low-odor materials let installers complete flooring jobs quickly—even during short shutdown windows—while preserving air quality for sensitive food zones.
Long-Term Performance
Installers need systems that last—and ProREZ delivers. Our coatings stand up to thermal cycling, heavy foot and cart traffic, spills, and caustic cleaning agents, minimizing callbacks and maximizing ROI for facility managers.
Bakery
Commercial and production bakeries typically operate long hours, with routine exposure to wetness, strict cleaning & disinfectant regimens, hot rack ovens, as well as heavy use of wheeled racks and equipment. Water mixing with fats and oils on the floor areas can create potentially hazardous conditions requiring greater non-slip resistance. These flooring areas also need to provide exceptional chemical and corrosive by-product protection against vegetable oils, dairy products, salts, sodas, and sugars. Bakery flooring requires a hard-wearing, seamless and non-porous floor resurfacing finish with added microbial protection against pathogens, as well as various non-skid texture options to prevent slip & fall accidents when surfaces are wet.
Chemical Washdown Area
Washdown areas in food processing and beverage facilities are unique environments subject to harsh exposures from high-pressure washer sprays as well as a multitude of aggressive chemicals used in both the cleaning and sanitation of equipment. The flooring system in chemical washdown areas requires a heavy-duty finish to endure these punishing conditions. Furthermore, the floor resurfacing treatment must support stringent sanitation protocols and regulations by the FDA and other governing bodies to ensure the safety of produce, meat, dairy and other processed food.
Dairy Processing
Dairy processing facilities are environments that require hardwearing, long-lasting floor resurfacing systems where there’s rigorous hygiene – cleaning & disinfectant regimes—and where the floors are continuously exposed to changing wet & dry conditions. Dynamic floor conditions combined with the acidic nature of dairy, and with heavy usage of equipment require tough, seamless and non-porous floor resurfacing systems that not only support stringent hygiene & sanitation, but also enhance floor safety for personnel. ProREZ coating systems for these unique areas can offer added microbial protection against bacterial attack as well as various non-skid textures to prevent slip & fall accidents when surfaces are wet.
Applicable Systems
Ideal flooring systems for the Dairy Processing industryFreezer & Cold Storage
Freezers and cold storage require specialty floor resurfacing systems that can be installed at lower temperatures and in damp conditions, as well as cure in a short turnaround time to reduce the client’s downtime and the associated risk of food spoilage in renovation or refurbishment projects. The systems must also have low odor, avoiding any tainting of stored foodstuffs. These storage areas require hard-wearing, seamless and non-porous floor resurfacing systems with added microbial protection against bacterial attack as well as non-skid texture to prevent slip & fall accidents when surfaces are wet.
Meat, Poultry & Seafood Processing
Slaughtering & fabricating areas for meats & poultry, as well as seafood processing plants are environments with heavy-duty exposures coupled with punishing conditions including aggressive hygiene & sanitation methods, and contaminants including blood, fat, grease, oil, and by-product waste. These processing areas require tough, seamless and non-porous floor resurfacing systems with added microbial protection against bacterial attack as well as non-skid texture to prevent slip & fall accidents when surfaces are wet.
