Kemtile has provided a durable, hygienic and easy-to maintain flooring system for a leading bakery business in Wrexham.
The install is the latest project for the commercial flooring specialists at the bakery.
Its teams have installed over 100,000sq metres of high-performance floors across multiple bakery sites for the business, including extensive previous specialist floor finishes in Wrexham.
A spokesperson at the bakery commented: “It’s a long-standing relationship which has built up trust in the quality of product and reliability of the install teams provided by Kemtile.”
This time Kemtile recommended and installed a polyurethane resin floor finish for a mezzanine floor, a system specifically engineered for harsh food-processing environments.
These environments subject floors to constant foot and equipment traffic, thermal shock and regular hot-wash cleaning.
The solution from Kemtile provides a dense, impervious and seamless finish that prevents bacterial growth and is resistant to chemicals, impact and abrasion.
Paul Doyle, Account Manager from Kemtile said: “These high-performance characteristics ensure that the mezzanine floor will remain safe, hygienic and operational for many years to come with minimal maintenance.”
The system is fully compliant with the stringent hygiene standards required in UK food production.
Installing a heavy-duty PU screed on an elevated mezzanine required careful planning, weight-management considerations, and precise preparation to ensure a fully bonded, long-lasting finish.
Working at height brought additional logistical and safety requirements which Kemtile considered and adapted to quickly.
Given the high-hygiene food-production all works had to be carried out in a way that protected product integrity, maintained strict hygiene protocols, and avoided disruption to ongoing operations.
Paul again: “This was a fast turnaround within a live food production site so you need experienced teams who can complete installs efficiently to minimise operational downtime.”
The bakery spokesperson added: “Kemtile continue to meet our highly demanding technical and operational requirements with consistency and great workmanship.”
