Hygienic & HACCP-aligned food-grade resin flooring

Auditors do not reward pretty topcoats, they reward integral coving, pinhole-free surfaces, drainage falls, and cleanability under real washdown temperatures. Maverick installs polyurethane-cement and compatible systems where thermal shock, fats, acids, and aggressive cleaning cycles demand more than thin-film epoxy house paint rebranded as “hygienic.”

Food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and healthcare floors must be seamless, non-porous, and impervious to bacterial colonisation under R638, ISO 22002-1, and HACCP-driven facility programmes, Maverick supplies product evidence; facility certification remains the owner’s responsibility.

Square internal corners trap biofilm. Integral coving, typically 50–300 mm high, eliminates 90° angles where pathogens and debris accumulate. We detail stainless or resin coves, radius transitions, and drain surrounds to hygiene drawings and photograph critical interfaces before screeds close them from view.

Our coatings approach

Approved systems. Measured films. Auditable handover.

PHASE_01

HACCP, R638 & regulatory context

Food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and healthcare floors must be seamless, non-porous, and impervious to bacterial colonisation under R638, ISO.

PHASE_02

Why coving details decide audits

Square internal corners trap biofilm.

PHASE_03

Thermal shock from ovens, steam, and cold rooms

Process heat and cold-room edges punish standard epoxy.

PHASE_04

Weekend shutdown sequencing

MMA or fast-cure windows only work when Thursday prep is complete.

Why high-performance systems fail on preparation, not product

Phase 01 / Assessment

Commercial bakery oven line

Thermal-shock screed survived daily oven washdowns after failed DIY epoxy blistered within months.

Specialized coating service pages

Industrial floors, hygienic walls, and architectural texture systems carry different compliance expectations. Each spoke below targets the procurement language and QA artefacts buyers expect before mobilisation.

  • Epoxy floors & polyurethane flooring

    Chemical resistance, traffic ratings, fast-cure options, and QA documentation for warehouses, plants, and retail back-of-house.

  • Cemcrete floors

    Decorative cement floor finishes with slab checks, colour samples, sealer selection, and clean maintenance handover.

  • Wall cladding

    Preparation, sealing, coating, and maintenance for feature walls, facade cladding, fixings, joints, and exposed edges.

MMA or fast-cure windows only work when Thursday prep is complete. Plant hygiene sign-offs, bund checks, and commissioning wipes are written as gates so Friday night is execution, not catching up on grinding.

We reference HACCP and ISO hygiene principles as operational context only. Certification stays the facility’s job, we supply datasheets, film logs, and pull tests auditors typically expect from the installing contractor.

Frequently asked questions

Technical answers for procurement teams, trustees, and facility managers in Gauteng.

What makes a floor “HACCP compliant”?

Typically seamless construction, cleanable surfaces, appropriate drainage, coving, and slip control suited to wet processes, verified against facility programmes and auditor expectations. Maverick supplies product evidence; we do not certify the plant.

PU cement vs epoxy in wet processing?

PU cement systems often tolerate thermal cycling and harsh cleaning better in wet food environments, final choice follows manufacturer exposure guidance.

How high should coving be?

Heights follow hygienic detail drawings, commonly 100–150 mm in many food specs but project-specific.

Can you work over tiled floors?

Usually requires removal or mechanical scarification and risk assessment, overlays on unstable tiles fail.

What about drains?

Stainless trapped drains and surround detailing are coordinated with plumbers before screed pours.

Do you provide slip certificates?

Pendulum or ramp testing can be arranged where specifications demand documented slip values.

Our Unbeatable Guarantee

De-Risking Your Multi-Million Rand Asset.
