Metz has a comprehensive range of non slip tiles and resinous systems providing long term safety, hygiene and durability.
Commercial kitchens are a most demanding work environment. Busy people in relatively confined areas moving quickly over oily dirty floors, all whilst using sharp utensils amongst hot surfaces and boiling
liquids means correct floor selection is essential. Metz systems provide long term safety, hygiene and durability which will withstand strong food acids, cleaning agents, solvents, oils and fats.
Metz kitchen floor tile systems are Australia’s leading performer and the perfect choice for busy kitchens in restaurants, hotels, hospitals, TAFES, gaols, aged care facilities, schools and colleges. With kitchen floor tiles thickness one the key to durability as additional thickness delivers extra strength, impact resistance and critically an increased depth of epoxy grout. Slip resistance is also key to performance – and here flat, slightly abrasive sloping surfaces provide the best balance between cleanability and long term slip resistance. Metz recommends flat, abrasive R12 or R13 and P5 rated slip resistant tiles for busy commercial kitchen floors.
At wall-floor junctions use of a min 25mm radius coved skirting tile is required and Metz can offer such matching pieces. For some ranges a purpose made cove piece exists for internal and external corners to enhance appearance. Epoxy grout is mandatory in all food preparation area tiled floors. Metz manufactures Australia’s broadest range of chemical resistant resinous grouts, so whether your project involves high temperature under ovens, or your floor has constant exposure to corrosive poultry fats Metz can assist.
