Sika® Ucrete® is dense and impervious. It is the ideal flooring solution where the highest hygienic standards are required and for the toughest industrial environments.
Why Choose Sika® Ucrete®?
Hygiene
Sika® Ucrete® is impervious, non-absorbent, anti-microbial without the need for biocidal additives, washable and non-toxic. Sika® Ucrete® is accredited for use in food facilities operating HACCP quality systems and also carries the Eurofins Indoor Air Comfort Gold Label for low emissions. Sika® Ucrete® is non-solvent-based and non tainting from the end of mixing to EN 4120, as certified by Campden BRI.
Chemical Resistance
Sika® Ucrete® is resistant to a wide range of aggressive chemicals used in many industries. It resists organic and inorganic acids and alkalis encountered in the food industry, which are used for regular cleaning and sterilisation procedures.
Thermal Resistance
Sika® Ucrete® is used over a wide temperature range, from -40 °C up to +130 °C, and some specifications are able to withstand also occasional spillages up to +150 °C. A 9 mm thick Sika® Ucrete® floor will withstand regular and routine discharges of boiling water.
Impact Resistance
Sika® Ucrete® is extremely tough. No damage will occur to the floor surface even under the heaviest impacts, such as the dropping of meat hooks in an abattoir, steel kegs falling off a line in a brewery or the dropping of tools and access covers during maintenance.
Slip Resistance
Sika® Ucrete® is available in a range of surface profiles from smooth to highly textured floors, available in matt or gloss and as cleanable as stainless steel, to achieve the right degree of slip resistance tailored to your needs. A perfectly safe working environment for your employees is possible with a holistic approach combining engineering solutions, correct working and cleaning procedures as well as good footwear and floor.
Fast Return to Service
Sika® Ucrete® is non tainting from the end of mixing, so it can be used for installations within a working factory causing no production downtime. Fast-curing specifications are available that allow the floor to be put back into service after five hours, even at 10 °C allowing overnight installation, minimising operational downtime. This is possible for not just a patch repair, but a fully functional Sika® Ucrete® floor that will provide many years of maintenance-free service.
