FDA-Approved Coating Services

FDA compliance is mandatory for companies in sectors like food processing, pharmaceuticals, and cannabis production. One of the most essential aspects of these facilities is the flooring, which must meet rigorous hygiene benchmarks. Epoxy flooring systems are a great solution to protect your plant from contamination and support your compliance efforts due to their easy-to-clean, durable, and chemical-resistant surfaces.

Surface Technology Inc. installs high-performance FDA-approved epoxy flooring to help you meet the exacting standards required for industries where cleanliness and safety are nonnegotiable. With over 35 years of experience, we deliver reliable, long-lasting flooring solutions that keep your business running smoothly and safely.

FDA-Approved Flooring: Factors to Consider

epoxy flooring for manufacturers

Factors to consider for industrial, FDA-compliant flooring include creating surfaces that can be easily cleaned and sanitized. Following FDA guidelines involves protecting exposed surfaces and being mindful of areas that will come in contact with foods, medical drugs, and other chemicals. You can achieve this by creating waterproof, nonporous surfaces. Antimicrobial elements also limit the potential for bacterial growth, creating a safer environment for consumable products. 

While flooring in sanitary-related commercial and industrial buildings must follow food and drug safety guidelines, that does not mean that standard expectations for quality flooring disappear. Characteristics such as reflectivity, anti-slip properties, and seamless application can create the high-performance surfaces the industry demands.

Resin Flooring for FDA Compliance

Resin flooring is an excellent choice for businesses looking to meet the strict FDA requirements because it is easy to clean and keep sanitary. The materials used for food and beverage and other industrial facility flooring vary depending on specific needs, but can broadly be divided into the following categories:

  • EpoxyEpoxy flooring creates a seamless, nonporous surface that resists moisture, chemicals, and abrasion, making it ideal for high-traffic industrial environments. Its durable finish is easy to clean, providing a hygienic surface that meets FDA and USDA standards. Epoxy is also available in various colors and finishes.
  • Urethane cement: FDA-approved urethane cement flooring offers exceptional chemical and thermal resistance. Its seamless, moisture-tolerant surface withstands harsh cleaning processes and temperature fluctuations common in food and beverage production. Its wear-resistant, durable, and easy-to-clean surface also helps maintain strict hygiene standards.
  • Acrylic methyl methacrylate (MMA): MMA has a low-glare satin finish and is resistant to scratches, weak alkalis, acids, and solvents.
  • Polyurea: Polyurea flooring systems have a rubber-like texture with a high-gloss finish. This material is highly resistant to stains and chemicals and has a high heat tolerance.
  • Polyaspartic: Polyaspartic coatings are highly durable. They resist abrasion, scratches, chemicals, UV, and impact.

The right coating for your industrial facility will depend on your unique needs, budget, and other environmental factors. We actively collaborate with you to design an FDA-approved flooring solution perfect for your needs.
