Non-Slip Hard Wearing Flooring Solutions from BASF

McCain Foods

The Challenge

In the past, despite trying a range of solutions, McCain Foods ahd found that many of the floor toppings applied at the Smithton Plant were not able to withstand the harsh operating environment, and were being damaged and degraded by the acid from the vegetable matter, oil and the constant flow of forklifts.

The Solution

McCains Foods conducted a two year trial to assess the performance of a range of different flooring solutions under 'live' operating conditions.

Following the results of the trial, McCains specified Ucrete DP for the floors in the plant's loading and packing areas, as well as throughout a number of key processing areas, including the potato deep frying area.

Specifically developed for the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries, Ucrete DP's unique monolithic formulation provides an extremely high level of slip resistance while still remaining easy to clean and maintain.

Rather than relying on a thin seal coat, Ucrete DP provides protection throughout the total thickness of the floor.
