In food processing, healthcare and other hygiene-critical environments, a floor has to do more than look well kept. It must withstand heavy use, moisture, fats and frequent cleaning, without letting dirt build up. HIM’s hygienic floors provide a seamless, wear-resistant and low-maintenance foundation for spaces where hygiene and continuity come first. The best option depends on the application. HIM supplies hygienic floors as epoxy floors, PU floors, multi-layer floors and trowel-applied floors.
Our floors suit a wide range of environments where cleanability, safety and a durable surface matter. Think of production areas, hospitals, butcher shops, cold rooms, laboratories, catering facilities, swimming pools and other heavily used commercial spaces. The sealed, seamless finish makes the floors easy to clean, and they can be fitted with an anti-slip texture if required. This way you combine hygiene with grip, safety and long-lasting performance.
Companies that produce, process or distribute food work according to the principles of HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points). This system helps control food safety risks, such as microbiological, chemical and physical hazards. Please note: a floor is not HACCP-certified in itself, but a suitable floor finish does help you meet the requirements. A floor must be in good condition, easy to clean and disinfect, and made of an impermeable, washable, non-absorbent and non-toxic material.
HIM develops hygienic floors with exactly these practical requirements in mind. A seamless, liquid-tight finish leaves fewer places where moisture, dirt and bacteria can collect. Combined with a suitable cleaning routine, it keeps your floor clean, safe and ready for daily use.
Anti-slipWith a tailored anti-slip texture, the floor gives extra grip in wet or intensively cleaned work environments.
SeamlessA closed, seamless finish limits dirt build-up and makes daily cleaning easier.
Liquid-tightWithstands heavy use and suits areas where moisture, fats or other liquids are present.
Want to know which hygienic floor suits your application? Our advisors will help you work out the right floor build-up, finish, slip resistance and substrate preparation. Drawing on years of experience and extensive testing in our own laboratory, we give targeted advice for industry, healthcare, laboratories, catering, workshops and other heavily used commercial spaces.

Yes. HIM can give hygienic floors an anti-slip finish. The right texture depends on the space, the likelihood of moisture or grease, and the cleaning method you use. This prevents the floor from being too slippery, without making it unnecessarily hard to keep clean.

Hygienic floors are developed to keep performing well over the long term, even with intensive cleaning and daily use. A strong, sealed floor finish helps limit wear, moisture penetration and damage, so the floor stays easy to clean. By matching the floor to the load, the cleaning agents and the conditions in the space, you keep a safe and hygienic working environment for longer.

A hygienic floor supports a clean, safe working environment, even under heavy use. The floor finish is matched to the space and can offer properties such as high wear resistance, resistance to moisture and cleaning agents, and extra grip. This keeps the floor easy to maintain and reliable in environments where hygiene needs attention every day.

A floor helps when it is easy to clean and disinfect and has a sealed, non-absorbent surface. The finish must also stay in good condition and suit the risks and working methods in the space. HACCP is always a holistic approach: the cleaning procedure, maintenance and work processes all play a role too.
