A Floor Trench System Installed Means An Easier Work Life And Clean Environment For Your Business or Facility

First let’s cover what floor trench systems are. If you have ever been in a commercial pool, you know that the water laps over into a trench system as people make waves. Well a floor trench system is similar to that in that it acts as an overflow. There are many businesses that need floor trench systems, such as water plants, waste-water plants, power plants, parking areas, chemical applications, and food processing as well as pharmaceutical applications. You will also find them on hardscape areas, around swimming pools, athletic facilities, and tracks.

They are also found in vehicle maintenance facilities, auto dealerships, garages, gas stations, kennels, marinas, schools, hospitals and fire stations to name a few more. In addition, they really come in handy for manufacturing plants, wineries, resorts, water parks, airports, rail stations, ports, and highway rest rooms. Thus you will see the floor trench system in just about every business possible, including sports arenas, stadiums, jails and prisons as well. They are widely utilized anywhere where water may make the floors slippery, no matter the source of the water.

The thing is that they are built right into the floor utility chase. The designers that pour the concrete for these, take into consideration things such as load bearing strength, its hydraulic capacities, the chemical resistance of the product utilized to go onto the trench system as well as the structural technology to be sure that the trench drain is correct for its particular application. Thus when it’s done, these floor trench systems are an enhanced process for removing any surface liquids for nearly all applications.

The “trick” was to find a seamless, totally non-porous, internal surface in order to further enhance the flow within these concrete floor trench systems. However, one company stands out above all others, and that is Silikal.

You see, Silikal has designed industrial floor coatings that are an amazing floor covering. It is especially treated to set up within one hour of application, and the end product is reactive, in that it will not allow bacteria nor mold to grow on it, within it, or even under it. This Silikal flooring is also made totally safe since it comes with slip resistance and of course, amazing clean ability.

You will find Silikal utilized in a majority of high-end restaurants where the kitchen is a beehive of constant activity and there is often floor trench systems associated with them to carry any foods away that might be dropped, and liquids as well, thus preventing a calamity in the kitchen should someone slip. When the cleaning crew shows up after a day’s worth of heavy duty cooking to clean the kitchen, they need not utilize strong detergents as everything can be cleansed easily as the floor trench systems in these establishments carries down all that waste water immediately and none of it remains in the trench. All is immaculate once more.
