Steam cleaning areas

Steam cleaning areas in commercial kitchens are subjected to frequent high-temperature steam washdowns, hot water, aggressive degreasers, and constant moisture. Flooring here must perform under thermal shock, resist fats and chemicals, and provide reliable slip resistance to keep kitchen staff safe during intensive cleaning cycles.

Key Flooring Requirements

• Thermal shock resistance from hot steam and cold water

• High resistance to oils, fats, and food acids

• Slip resistance for continuously wet floors

• Seamless, non-porous surface to prevent bacterial growth

• Easy drainage and coved skirting compatibility
