The Margia "Granite" Brochure
The MARGIA floor is a unique and exclusive
flooring system developed and installed by MARGIA FLOORS,
Inc. (U.S.) . The MARGIA
floor is unique in that it is non-slip, resistant to blood and fatty acids, and will not
crack or break even after extensive use. Due to these characteristics, the MARGIA
floor enjoys a tremendous advantage in the food processing industry where various forms of
acidity harmful to most concrete floors are found. This includes the meat and poultry
industry, as well as the dairy, soft drink and fruit processing industry. With more than
50 craftsmen, whom together represent more than 700 years of experience in the field of
problem free floors, the MARGIA floor can be the solution.
Product
The floor which is made of a mixture of cement and granite,
has a thickness of approximately 2.0" (5 cm) and is applied directly on top of a
roughened reinforced base concrete. MARGIA floors consist of two layers.
The bottom layer is a special composition of concrete, it is here that any form of
drainage will be created. The minimum thickness of the bottom layer is 1.3" (3.25
cm). While this surface is still fresh, at top coat with a universal thickness of .7"
(1.75 cm) is applied. The granite in this layer, which must pass numerous quality tests,
accounts for the non-slip nature of the MARGIA floor. The granite is of
such a quality that it will not wear down to a smooth surface even after extensive use.
The floors are then compressed with rollers and dehydrated to create a non-absorbing form
of concrete. This impervious nature explains why neither blood nor fatty acids affect it.
The greatly compressed surface eliminates any cracking after normal use. The
MARGIA floor can be layered seamless with base-board,
stairs, platforms and gutters made out fo the same quality MARGIA.
MARGIA floors are resistant to blood and
fatty acids and will not be affected by the cleaning components commonly used in the
slaughter industry (including the high pressure hot water jet). The MARGIA
floor has an estimated useful life of 30 years and meets all USDA and EEC requirements.

See Tender Text here.
In the past 30 years the MARGIA floor has
contributed to a safer and more efficient working environment in numerous meat processing
plants all over the world. MARGIA Floors has installed over 10 million
square feed of floors in both Europe, the Middle East, and North America, predominantly
for the meat and poultry industry. However, the MARGIA floor can be
beneficial to the dairy, soft drink, fruit and other food processing industries where
various forms of acidity cause problems.
MARGIA floors are clearly a
superior quality floor for use in the food processing industry and can be obtained for
prices competitive with other flooring alternatives. Obtaining a MARGIA
floor from the beginning will eliminate future repair costs which are inevitable if other
flooring processes are used in plants where harsh conditions prevail. View samples of our floor.
While some of our floors are over 25 years in age, MARGIA
Floors, Inc. has yet to receive a complaint.
