Commercial kitchen flooring in Singapore, engineered for heat, grease and wash-down.

There is no single best build for every zone. Hot cooking lines and repeated wash-down normally require a more substantial PU-cement direction, while drier prep and service routes may suit a properly primed epoxy flooring system with an aggregate texture selected for the actual slip risk.

Yes, on the right zones. Commercial kitchen epoxy flooring is the route to assess for drier prep, service, dry-store and corridor areas, applied over a compatible primer with an aggregate texture chosen for the actual slip risk. It is not the route for hot cooking lines and continuous wash-down, where hot spills and steam take the duty past an epoxy and a PU-cement screed is evaluated instead.

PU-cement and epoxy solve different duties. Rayson PurScreed PC70 is the PU-cement direction to evaluate for hot, wet and heavier-duty kitchen zones. PrimeBond E25 with FloorGuard R50 is the epoxy flooring route to assess for lighter prep, service and dry-store areas. The site conditions and each product TDS govern the final choice.

A central kitchen is normally specified zone by zone rather than as one floor. Cook lines, kettle and wash areas are assessed on the PU-cement screed route; central kitchen epoxy flooring suits the drier packing, chilled assembly, dry-store and circulation routes, with texture selected per zone. Map the layout, exposure and closure window before either route is priced.

No. HACCP is a food-safety management system that audits the facility, not a certification that a flooring product carries. What an auditor looks for in the floor is that it is seamless, non-absorbent, coved at the wall junction, drained to falls, cleanable at the temperatures and chemicals the kitchen uses, and free of cracks or open joints where residue can sit. Rayson PU-cement and epoxy kitchen systems are specified for HACCP-audited facilities on exactly those points; the audit outcome depends on the installed floor, the detailing and the cleaning regime, not on a label.

Slip resistance is developed through the selected surface texture and aggregate profile. More texture can improve grip but also changes cleanability and trolley movement, so it should be specified by zone rather than applied at one level throughout the kitchen.

Coving is commonly considered where a seamless, cleanable junction is required at wall bases and equipment plinths. It reduces sharp dirt-trapping corners, but the exact detail must be coordinated with the substrate, wall finish, drains and equipment bases.

Only after the existing finish and substrate have been assessed. Loose tiles, hollow areas, grease contamination, failed screeds and trapped moisture cannot be hidden beneath a new coating. Unsound material must be removed and the substrate properly prepared.

Common causes include grease left in the substrate, coating over weak or hollow material, incorrect falls around drains, incompatible layers, insufficient preparation and reopening before the selected system has completed its required cure.

A phased programme may be possible by kitchen zone or available closure window. Isolation, preparation sequence, ventilation, cure and return to service must be planned from the selected product TDS and the actual operating conditions.

PurScreed PC70 is the PU-cement direction for evaluation in hot and wet duty. PrimeBond E25 and FloorGuard R50 form an epoxy route for suitable lighter zones. GripSafe AP12 is a specialist anti-slip product that may be assessed for relevant external wash bays or ramps.

Send the area split by cooking, prep, wash, stores and corridors; the existing floor and visible failures; cleaning routine, heat and grease exposure; drain locations; photographs; and the available installation and reopening window.
