Food (Chili) processing floors consistently face multiple severe challenges. The persistent erosion from capsaicin, penetration of high-concentration brine during pickling, abrasion from frequent mechanical operations, and impact from acid/alkaline cleaning agents all impose extremely high demands on floor performance. KAIDA PAINT JINYU® urethane mortar flooring system, with its outstanding corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and impact resistance, serves as an ideal solution for chili processing plants. This article analyzes its application value in both new construction and renovation scenarios through two real-world cases from Hunan-based chili companies.
01 Hunan Lameizi – Avoiding Flooring Risks from the Start in New Construction

As a leading enterprise in China’s chili processing industry, Hunan Lameizi had extremely high standards when selecting flooring for its new modern production base. During processing, capsaicin-containing juices and salty pickling liquids pose a significant threat to floors. Traditional cement floors quickly develop issues like dusting, cracking, and even penetration corrosion, creating hazards for both production and hygiene. In contrast, KAIDA PAINT JINYU® urethane mortar flooring easily resists these corrosive substances. Whether from long-term exposure or frequent washing, the floor remains intact. It also offers exceptional wear resistance, withstanding frequent movement of equipment and high foot traffic without damage. For this project, we implemented detailed design based on actual needs: production areas and walkways use different colors for clear zoning; thickness was also adjusted according to requirements—thicker in equipment areas for higher load-bearing capacity and standard in walkways for traffic. This approach balanced practicality with durability, eliminating potential future issues for the client from the very beginning.

KAIDA PAINT JINYU® urethane mortar flooring demonstrated significant advantages during construction: its unique self-leveling properties ensured high-precision surface flatness, preventing hard-to-clean spots caused by unevenness. The material itself is highly chemically inert, resistant to long-term erosion from capsaicin, organic acids, and high-concentration brine. Since operation began, the floor shows no signs of penetration. Daily cleaning requires only water or neutral detergents, greatly reducing maintenance costs.

02 Hunan Jiangdalao – Renovation Revitalizes the Floor
The pickling workshop at Hunan Jiangdalao Food Factory initially used ordinary concrete flooring. Due to the specific production environment of chili pickling, the floor began dusting over time, and pickling liquids gradually seeped into the base layer, causing dusting, localized dampness, and mold. This posed a potential risk to product quality and safety. To enhance production environment reliability, the management decided to renovate the floor, opting to install food-grade polyurethane mortar material.


During renovation, the technical team first professionally treated the original concrete surface, removing loose layers and repairing cracks, before applying KAIDA PAINT JINYU® polyurethane mortar. This material bonds strongly with the base, effectively blocking underground moisture penetration. Meanwhile, its dense surface molecular structure forms a robust “protective barrier,” completely eliminating the seepage of chili pickling liquids. The renovated floor is not only smooth and clean again but also withstands frequent compression from forklifts and heavy containers, significantly extending its service life and enabling a swift return to production.


03 Chili Plant Flooring Needs & JINYU Mortar’s Targeted Advantages
The core challenges for chili plant flooring focus on three aspects: Firstly, chemical corrosion – capsaicin, salt, and pickling acids/alkalis continuously erode the floor. Secondly, mechanical wear – transport vehicles and mixing equipment demand extremely high abrasion resistance over long-term operation. Thirdly, hygiene standards – floors must be easy to clean and prevent microbial growth.
Addressing these challenges, our KAIDA PAINT JINYU® urethane mortar flooring provides practical and effective solutions: Its unique resin composition combined with a mortar structure forms a protective layer resistant to acids, alkalis, and solvents. In chili processing environments, various corrosive substances cannot damage it. Its wear resistance far exceeds that of traditional floors like epoxy. Furthermore, its seamless construction technique leaves no places for dirt to accumulate, fully complying with hygiene standards for food processing areas.
Whether for proactive planning in new facilities or upgrading older workshops, KAIDA PAINT JINYU® urethane mortar flooring contractors, with its exceptional performance, offers long-lasting and reliable flooring solutions for food, pharmaceutical, and other industries. Especially today, as the food industry’s requirements for production environments become increasingly strict, choosing a suitable flooring system is not only fundamental for ensuring production efficiency but also crucial for safeguarding product quality. KAIDA PAINT conractors will continue to drive innovation, creating safe and durable flooring environments for more food processing enterprises.
