Food-Safe Flooring: What Makes Flowfresh Ideal for F&B Environments?

Flowfresh is a high-performance flooring system designed for food processing, beverage, pharmaceutical and other hygiene-sensitive environments. Its 100% phthalate-free formulation contains no adipates or terephthalates, offering an added level of material safety and sustainability.

 

Choosing the Right Flooring for Food & Beverage Processing with Flowfresh

Unlike many conventional “phthalate-free” alternatives that still rely on plasticisers (which may gradually migrate or lose performance over time), the Flowfresh flooring system is designed for long-term performance, preserving its structural integrity even under demanding operational conditions.

Its seamless, dense surface is easy to clean and highly resistant to chemicals, impact and daily wear, delivering lasting performance in demanding, hygiene-sensitive environments.

 

 

Backed by our commitment to Building a Better World, Flowfresh is a safe and future-ready flooring solution designed to meet demanding hygiene and performance requirements.

By eliminating conventional plasticisers, Flowfresh helps reduce concerns around chemical migration while delivering long-term performance and reliability. It also supports sustainable building practices and can contribute towards LEED certification goals.

 

Why this change matters in food processing

Food processing plants, beverage facilities, cold storages and commercial kitchens must meet very strict rules for cleanliness, safety and durability requirements. Their floors are constantly wet, exposed to hot and cold temperatures, cleaned with strong chemicals and must endure heavy foot and equipment traffic. This makes the type of material used for the floor very important.

Phthalate-free floors lower the chance that harmful chemicals will leak out into the surroundings. They help companies follow evolving global regulations and customer expectations around material safety and sustainability. They also support green building certifications (e.g. LEED) by improving indoor air quality and reducing dangerous substances.

For food processing and other hygiene-critical industries, flooring should be selected based on a combination of factors, including hygiene, durability, cleanability and material composition. Choosing a phthalate-free solution such as Flowfresh can provide an additional consideration for businesses looking to align with evolving industry expectations and sustainability goals.
