What is the best commercial kitchen flooring?

What is food grade flooring?

If you’re on the hunt for commercial kitchen flooring, you’ll need to choose a material that satisfies the Food Standards Agency’s current hygiene regulations. Food grade commercial kitchen flooring will need to be:

• Washable – Flooring must be easy to clean, without degrading when harsh cleaning agents are used
• Safe – Your commercial kitchen flooring should be slip-resistant to improve traction and limit falls
• Impervious – Commercial kitchens are prone to heat and moisture, which is why your floors need to be resistant.
• Non-absorbent – The flooring in your commercial kitchen should not absorb food and liquids that are accidentally spilled. This will only make it harder to clean.
• Made of a non-toxic material – Flooring needs to be easy to clean and sanitise in such environments, to prevent the spread of harmful bacteria.

Additionally, you’ll want to choose a commercial kitchen flooring that fits with your interior design scheme. If necessary, it should also create the ambience you’re going for, whilst supporting your branding.

So, what type of commercial kitchen flooring meets all these needs? Read on to find out.
