Slip resistance in after-school care center kitchen

Tiles in the reheating kitchen are retrofitted with slip resistance.

The country-style school complex, built in 1941, is a listed building. The two pavilion buildings, which house the school's own after-school care center, are particularly eye-catching. During the complete renovation of the school, the after-school care center was given its own reheating kitchen for lunch.

A preparation kitchen or regeneration kitchen is a communal catering kitchen in which delivered chilled or frozen meals are simply reheated or heated and served.
Regeneration kitchens supplement the range of meals on offer with fresh salads, fruit, and desserts. Sensitive foods such as schnitzel can also be freshly prepared on site in the regeneration kitchen. However, the preparation process is always omitted in this type of kitchen.
The advantages of preparation kitchens therefore lie in the lower staffing requirements compared to a conventional preparation kitchen. Furthermore, medium-sized premises and fewer appliances in the kitchen lead to lower costs. Another advantage of the regeneration kitchen is its high flexibility in terms of meal numbers and times.

After-school care kitchens enable children to not only be looked after after school, but also to receive food and meals that meet their needs and preferences. In addition, a dedicated kitchen allows special dietary requirements to be taken into account, for example if a child has a food intolerance or allergy.

Slip resistance in an after-school care kitchen is very important to ensure the safety of employees. It is therefore important to regularly check the slip-resistant properties of the flooring to ensure that it meets national standards. Furthermore, thorough cleaning of the flooring is necessary to ensure lasting slip resistance.
