Seamless Food Processing Concrete Built for Abbotsford Plants
Processing facilities need floors that pass inspection and survive daily washdowns. Abbotsford Concrete pours seamless epoxy and urethane systems with coved bases, engineered for CFIA and USDA standards, so your sanitation crew can clean to code and audits pass on the first walk-through. Installation phases around your production schedule.
Why Seamless Concrete Flooring Matters in Food Processing
An inspector walks a food plant floor looking for places bacteria can hide. Every joint, every corner where the floor meets the wall, every drain edge is a potential failure point if the concrete is not built as one continuous surface.
That is why food-grade epoxy systems are installed as complete assemblies, from primer through topcoat, with no gaps in the chemistry or the prep. The slab is ground to profile, moisture is tested, and any weak concrete is repaired before the epoxy goes down.
At the wall, coved-base concrete flooring eliminates the floor-wall corner entirely, sweeping the finish up in a smooth curve so there is nowhere for contaminants to settle. This is what makes a floor CFIA and USDA compliant in practice, not just on the specification sheet.

Installation sequence
How Food-Grade Concrete Flooring Gets Installed in Abbotsford
Assess the compliance need
We review the standard your facility must meet, the chemicals and temperatures in your washdown routine, and which production zones the new floor will cover.
Prepare the concrete slab
Existing coatings are stripped, the slab is ground or shot-blasted to the right profile, moisture testing is done, and any damaged concrete is repaired before the food-grade system is applied.
Apply the epoxy or urethane
The matched resin system is installed to the manufacturer's specification, with proper drainage slopes and the chemistry your sanitation process requires.
Cove and cure the floor
The finish is swept up the wall in a smooth cove, eliminating the floor-wall joint, the system cures to full strength, and the zone is ready for your next audit.
Compliance through detail
How Compliant Food Processing Floors Actually Pass Audit
CFIA and USDA compliant concrete flooring is not a single product, it is a system built and installed correctly. The resin chemistry matters, but so do the prep, the coving, the drainage, and how drains and equipment penetrations are detailed into the floor.
We install the full system to the manufacturer's published spec for your use case, then detail every drain, equipment pad and joint so the floor reads as one continuous, cleanable surface. This is the same standards-first approach we bring to coved-base systems and all our industrial concrete work.
Compliance, coving, washdown and what food-grade flooring involves in Abbotsford.
Yes, when built right. CFIA and USDA compliant flooring is a full system installed to manufacturer spec, with the chemistry, prep, coving and drainage that real-world audits require, not just an NSF-stamped product.
A coved base sweeps the floor finish up the wall in a smooth curve, removing the right-angle floor-wall joint where bacteria collect. A floor without coving cannot be cleaned to compliance, no matter how good the surface is.
Yes. Food-grade epoxy handles standard washdowns; urethane systems are specified where heat shock, caustic cleaners or constant water are part of the day. We pick the chemistry to your sanitation routine.
Yes. We phase the work zone by zone, often off-shift, so production keeps running while one zone cures fully. The plan is built with your quality and sanitation team before prep starts.
Yes. The detailing around drains, equipment pads and joints is where most food-grade floors actually fail audit, so we install those details as part of the system, not as an afterthought.

What Abbotsford Food Plants Say About Their Food-Grade Floors
Coved-base food-grade floor through the whole production room. Passed our CFIA audit cleanly and the sanitation crew can finally hose it without water finding a joint.

Bakery production lead
★★★★★
Urethane system because of our hot washdowns. Three years of caustic cleaning and the floor has not softened or yellowed anywhere.
S. E.
Dairy plant maintenance
★★★★★
Detailed the drains and equipment pads in the same system as the floor. No edges, no joints, exactly what an audit looks for.
E. K.
Food processing operations
★★★★★
Phased zone by zone around production. We never stopped a line and the new floor was certified before the inspector showed up.
