Kitchen Floor Drain Sanitation, explained.
Floor drains in a commercial kitchen catch spills, food scraps and mop water all day. Left alone, they build a layer of organic slime that smells, attracts flies and slows the flow.
A floor drain program cleans each drain, removes the biofilm, flushes the line behind it and applies a sanitizing treatment. Monthly is a common rhythm, tied to your cleaning schedule so the kitchen stays fresh and ready for inspection.

Does this replace daily cleaning?
No. Staff cleaning matters. This handles what staff cannot reach inside the drain.

Cleaning removes their breeding material. Persistent problems may need more steps, and we tell you.
Is the treatment food-safe?
Products are used according to their directions and the area is left clean. Ask us about specifics for your kitchen.
