Prevent rice from sticking to the rice cooker! Improved yield and cleanability with fluororesin coating.
Fluororesin coating
Compliance with the Food Sanitation Act: Prevents sticking and burning of highly adhesive rice! Reduces product loss during inversion and shortens cleaning time, improving operational efficiency.
This is a surface treatment solution that applies a fluororesin (PTFE/PFA) coating to the inner surface of metal "rice cookers" used in large food factories, prepared food manufacturing lines, and meal centers. By forming a non-stick fluororesin coating over the entire inner surface of the cooker, it effectively prevents the sticking and burning of "freshly cooked rice," which has a very high tendency to adhere. **Value of Introducing This Technology** - **Improved Yield During Transfer**: When rice is inverted for transfer, it falls smoothly without leaving any residue on the inner surface, minimizing product loss and remaining adhesion. - **Significant Reduction in Cleaning Labor (Downtime)**: The need for scraping off stuck-on residues is eliminated, and dirt can be removed with simple washing or light cleaning, dramatically shortening cleaning time. - **Optimal Selection Based on Application**: Depending on usage conditions such as heating temperature, cleaning frequency, and mechanical wear, we propose the best specifications with excellent wear resistance using "PTFE" or superior continuous use and weather resistance with "PFA." Of course, all paints and processing methods used comply with the standards of the "Food Sanitation Act," ensuring a safe and secure specification.

Applications/Examples of results
【Main Application Uses】 ■ Large Food Factories and Delicatessen Plants Rice cooking lines for sterile packaged rice and convenience store bento and onigiri. ■ Shared Kitchens and School Meal Centers High-capacity automatic rice cooking systems for school lunches, hospitals, and businesses. ■ Restaurant Chains and Rice Processing Manufacturers Cooking, warming, and transportation equipment for rice in central kitchens. 【Implementation Challenges and Improvement Results】 ■ Challenge: After cooking, a large amount of rice stuck to the bottom and sides of the cooking pot during the inversion process, requiring manual scraping each time. Additionally, significant labor costs and time were spent on pot polishing and cleaning after operation. ■ After Implementation: A food safety law-compliant fluororesin coating was applied to the inner surface of the pot. ■ Effects and Results: - Rice now smoothly slides off during the inversion process, significantly reducing adhesion and residue on the pot, greatly improving rice yield. - Scrubbing and washing tasks have been completely eliminated, and dirt can be removed quickly with water, reducing cleaning time by about 60%. - The downtime associated with cleaning tasks has been reduced, achieving an overall improvement in the production cycle of the factory while simultaneously reducing water, electricity, and labor costs.

Company information
Nikken Coating Industry Co., Ltd. has been a specialized manufacturer of functional coatings for contract processing, earning the trust of customers across various industries for 79 years since its founding. We leverage our processing technology to maximize the properties of fluororesins, such as non-stick, lubricity, and chemical resistance, providing high-performance coatings that directly address customer challenges, including "Thermo Pro Release" for thermal welding processes and "NonStick STC" for blades and precision molds. In recent years, in response to movements regarding regulations on fluorinated compounds (PFAS), "PEEK resin," which is gaining attention as a substitute for fluororesins, has become a focus. Nikken Coating Industry commercialized the world's first PEEK resin coating, "PEEKCOAT," in 1999. Based on the solid knowledge and know-how accumulated over more than 20 years, we are further intensifying our research and development efforts to explore the potential of next-generation PEEK coatings! We aim to be recognized as "the go-to for PEEK coatings" and will continue to lead the way. As "the best partner for functional coatings that builds trust through technology," Nikken Coating Industry will continue to contribute to the creation of high-quality, high-performance products.
