Breweries face distinct flooring challenges. Beyond enduring the daily wear and tear from foot traffic, brewery flooring needs to resist continuous temperature changes, high moisture levels, and chemical exposure. Additionally, it must be easy to maintain and help prevent microbial growth.
What are the key considerations for designing a floor that minimizes bacterial growth? The flooring must be entirely resistant to water, chemicals, and other substances that could be absorbed. Materials like bare concrete, wood, or open grout joints can soak up contaminants. Seamless, “grout-free” floors are particularly suitable for brewery environments. Removing joints eliminates potential breeding grounds for bacteria. Additionally, chemical-resistant flooring for breweries and slip-resistant brewery flooring ensure both sanitation and safety, especially around critical transitions between floors and walls.
Most flooring system failures occur in areas susceptible to water intrusion. Collaborate closely with your flooring expert to ensure proper slope toward drains. It’s essential to design termination points, particularly around drains, to prevent water from seeping under the floor. Prolonged moisture intrusion can cause small flooring failures that quickly escalate into significant problems.
