DuChateau Floors specializes in the manufacturing of new wood flooring materials that have the look and feel of timber that were salvaged from old homes and mansions. These floors have distinct axe hatch marks and other wear and tear characteristics that are expected to be seen in reclaimed wooden floors. Even if they are newly manufactured, all floors from the Vintage Remains Collection offer an authentic rustic look when installed in New Jersey homes.
DuChateau Flooring also specializes in wooden floors with the traditional European design of using parquets. You can choose from Chevron, Herringbone or Double Herringbone designs if you prefer diagonally patterned floor. Block Parquet, Ladder Design, and Random Width designs offer asymmetrical designs that will give your flooring a unique and outstanding look.
DuChateau also offers hand-sculpted hardwood floors in their Riverstone Collection. Wood floors included in the said collection have distresses and knots on the surface, which were manually hand sculpted to provide a natural look. Hand sculpting is done so that no knot or distress is exactly the identical. Performing hand sculpting manually on the floors also gives it the natural contour that makes it comfortable to the feet.

Technical Abstract: Understanding the potential drivers of microbial meat contamination along the entire meat supply chain is needed to identify targets for interventions to reduce the number of meatborne bacterial outbreaks. We assessed the hygienic practices in cattle slaughterhouses (28 employees) and retail shops (127 employees) through face-to-face interviews and direct personal observations. At the slaughterhouses, stunning, de-hiding and evisceration in vertical position, carcass washing and separate storage of offal were the identified good practices. Lack of hot water baths, absence of a chilling room, infrequent hand washing, insufficiently trained staff and irregular medical check-up were practices that lead to unhygienic handling of carcasses. At the retail shops, cleaning equipment using soap and hot water (81%), storing unsold meat in refrigerators (92%), concrete floors and white painted walls and ceilings were good practices. Adjacently displaying offal and meat (39%), lack of a cold chain, wrapping meat with plastic bags and newspapers, using a plastic or wooden cutting board (57%), infrequent washing of equipment and floors, and inadequately trained employees were practices that could result in unhygienic handling of beef. Our study identified unhygienic practices both at the slaughterhouses and retail shops that can predispose the public to meatborne infections, which could be improved through training and implementation of quality control systems.
