Sanitation - Constructed of solid
plastic material. Some plastic floors
are foamed. As these floors wear
down their micro air pockets fill with
bacteria which make the floor difficult, if
not impossible to disinfect. This flooring
features a triangle underside design which
diminishes the need for high pressure washing
from below to completely clean, as the floor can
be cleaned sufficiently from above,
