TIM Products

Flowcrete Australia recently worked with TIM Products, manufacturers of sweets, biscuits and pastries, to provide a slip resistant floor for their plant in Marrickville, Sydney.

TIM Products started from humble beginnings in 1967 as a small cake shop. It soon established a reputation of quality continental cakes and pastries and the business grew rapidly. The HACCP accredited manufacturer now distributes tasty treats including baklava and almond shortbread to customers across Australia.

The client required a bakery floor with a slip resistant finish that could be cleaned with mops. With that in mind, Flowcrete specified 200m² of its HACCP certified antimicrobial floor screed, Flowfresh SL at a thickness of 3-4mm for the facility.

The system was installed in an Ash Grey shade at the Marrickville based bakery and a special topcoat was also installed that incorporated aluminium oxide so as to further enhance the slip resistant properties of the standard Flowfresh SL screed. 

Flowfresh SL delivers a matt coloured floor finish, which is joint-free and easily cleaned. The material, which contains the silver-ion based antimicrobial agent Polygiene®, is ideal for use in storage areas and dry processing zones subject to light or medium duty foot traffic.

The heavy duty, chemical resistant antimicrobial treated polyurethane resin floor finish is often utilised in industries where hygiene is of the utmost importance and TIM Products was delighted with the end result in their NSW based bakery.
