Polyurea and Polyurethane Coatings for Healthier Operating Environments
CLEANER, SAFER, AND MORE FUNCTIONAL SURFACES
The foodservice and healthcare industries are intertwined and inseparable. What you put into your body reflects what you get out of your body, and most of us could benefit from learning to strike a better balance between health and indulgence. Moreover, their shared relationship to health and wellness extends to how these industries operate safely and efficiently. Both require hygienic and sanitary conditions to remain compliant, and more importantly, to deliver life-sustaining nourishment and life-saving medical care without harming consumers in the process. However, there’s a bit of a catch-22 here; kitchens and medical facilities are teeming with dirt and bacteria by virtue of what they do and how they do it, yet these spaces must remain spick and span or they’ll be of more harm than help. So the only solution is to take every measure to ensure that both environments are designed for maximum cleanliness, and to frequently disinfect between dishes or procedures. To help make this job easier, surfaces can be coated in an antibacterial layer of materials technologies like polyurea and polyurethane, which also serve to provide high-performance all-purpose protection.
