Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard panels are fully compliant with the requirements set out by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for areas where food is prepared.
When installing Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard in food processing facilities, commercial kitchens, or other food preparation areas that require regulatory compliance, the following guidelines must be followed:
Install on Non-Food Contact Surfaces Only: Trusscore is strictly for use on non-food contact surfaces. Trusscore Wall&CeilingBoard must not come into direct contact with food products.
Seal All Joints: All joints must be sealed with an acceptable flexible caulking compound to provide a smooth, flush, and impervious joint. This prevents bacterial growth and ensures the installation meets hygiene standards.
Use the following approved silicone sealants, which meet FDA Reg. 21, CFR 177.2600 and are certified to NSF/ANSI Standard #51:
Canada: DAP Silicone Ultra Kitchen, Bath & Plumbing Sealant
United States: DAP Commercial Kitchen 100% Silicone Sealant
