Do you require a FDA concrete floor sealer for your FDA & USDA approval?
The floor surface is the receptacle of food debris, of all kinds. What is not pickup up with regular sanitation efforts, can re-locate to the pockets or pores in the floor, or other irregularities. Harmful bacteria and food contaminants thrive in these areas, causing disease. It's necessary that the floor be treated with a specific coating, in order to maintain a hygienic surface. - An FDA concrete floor sealer.
The following microorganisms are the biggest culprits of foodborne illness because of the severity of the illness or the number of cases of illness they cause: Listeria monocytogenes, Norovirus, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, E-coli 0157:H7, Campylobcater and Clostridium botulinum.
FDA & USDA has set the necessary standards for concrete floor coatings so that they are able to provide a protective barrier that prevents contaminants, from permeating the concrete substrate. This coating will allow for thorough cleaning and sanitation efforts, whether by pressure washing, auto-scrub or mop & bucket. Additionally, the floor should have slip resistance, to protect employees.
