PU concrete flooring in Agra

Few floors suffer like the floor of a petha or mithai kitchen. Boiling sugar syrup spills, sticky residue gets scraped off with steel blades, hot water floods the floor at the end of each batch, and the heat never really leaves the room. Agra has a lot of these kitchens, along with dairies, hotel kitchens and cold storages. PU concrete is the floor that stands up to all of them.

Sweet and petha factories

Sugar is harder on floors than people think. When syrup soaks into concrete, it slowly weakens the cement. When it cooks onto a hot floor, cleaners attack it with scrapers and hot water, which wears the surface further. Tiles crack from the heat and the grout fills with sugar, attracting insects.

PU concrete laid 9 mm thick in the cooking area handles boiling syrup and scraping. It is jointless, so sugar has nowhere to hide. It also has a textured finish, so the floor stays safer when sticky or wet. We lay it to fall towards drains so washdown water clears quickly.

Hotel kitchens

Agra's hotels run large kitchens for restaurants, banquets and room service. Back-of-house floors take hot oil, steam from dishwashers, heavy trolleys and nightly degreasing. For hotels being renovated, PU concrete often replaces tiled kitchens that have become a maintenance headache. We work in sections so the kitchen keeps serving guests.

Dairies

Milk and paneer units use PU concrete in processing and wash areas where lactic acid, hot water and caustic cleaning chemicals would damage ordinary floors.

Cold storages

Agra district has many cold storages. Most of the chamber floor is simple concrete, but the loading areas, grading halls and doorways take a beating from trolleys and temperature changes. PU concrete handles the thermal shock at chamber doors, where the floor goes from cold inside to very hot outside in summer, better than rigid floors. Work must be planned for the off-season, when chambers are empty and warmed up.

Summer heat during installation

Agra's summer is extreme, and hot slabs affect how PU concrete handles and cures. In May and June we lay early in the morning or late in the evening, keep materials shaded and mix smaller batches. The quality of the finish depends on these details.

Installation outline

1. Survey of the slab, drains and working pattern
2. Breakout of tiles and sugar or oil-contaminated concrete
3. Correction of falls and setting of drains
4. Anchor grooves at drains, doors and edges
5. Coved skirting at walls and around bhatti and kettle bases
6. PU concrete at 6 or 9 mm with anti-slip finish

FAQs

Can a sweet factory in Agra keep working during the job?

Yes, if we split the kitchen into zones. Production continues in one zone while we work on another. Each zone is usually back in use within a day or two.

Does sugar syrup damage PU concrete?

Hot syrup spills and regular cleaning don't harm properly laid PU concrete. The key is to clean up and not leave thick deposits baking on the floor for days.

Is 9 mm always needed?

Only where there is boiling liquid, steam or very heavy impact. Packing rooms and stores can use 6 mm or even a thinner coating to save cost.
