How To Check If Your Anti Fatigue Needs Replacing

To play it safe, check for wear and tear, chipped edges, and grazed surface texture. You can also check the mats cushion core by seeing if it leaves compression when weight is added. The mat should return back to its original shape. If not, this shows that the mat has run its course and needs replacing.

For Support And Comfort

In a retail or office environment, its less about anti-slip and more about soft cushioning and balanced support. Working long hours on your feet is known to stifle blood flow and induce muscle ache. Not only does this distract employees from their work, but it can cause uncomfortable and even chronic pain. In the long term, staff may require sick leave or physiotherapy to reduce the ache and pain in their muscles.

Thankfully, comfort mats combat this problem. The surface of our comfort mats will induce subtle movement in the legs, stimulating blood flow. We also offer a range of thickness and softness to provide the optimum solution for your working environment. If youre not sure which mat would best suit your business, get in touch and well walk you through the options.

Our light and medium-duty safety mats are functionally resistant to water and drinks spillages, too, so you dont have to worry if someone drops their coffee at work!

Selecting The Perfect Anti Fatigue Mat

It can be a bit overwhelming deciding which type of anti fatigue matting to select for a workplace. Some questions you might want to ask yourself are:

• Will the matting be used in a wet or dry area?
• Does the matting need to cover a large working environment or fixed workstations?
• Is the environment exposed to any liquids, such as chemicals/oils/grease?
• Are ramped edges are required?

Many of the mats in this range also act as anti slip mats, increasing standing comfort and reducing the risks of slips and trips. Selecting the right anti fatigue matting for your environment is important.

How Will You Use Your Anti

Will the mat be used by just you in front of your computer in your home office? Or will it be placed in front of the kitchen sink or counter and used by everyone in the family? Or maybe it will be placed in front of a workbench in garage? Determining how the mat will be used on a day-to-day basis will help you when deciding on what you need in an anti-fatigue mat.

Thickness Density & Elements

A dense rubber mat is less tiring than a soft mat and will provide better support. But there’s more to consider when it comes to density, and a well-designed anti-fatigue mat will be engineered based on key elements that are known to alleviate foot fatigue. Adding a vinyl cover to a foam construction may be fine for a comfy feel, but when you want to reduce foot fatigue, it’s just not enough.

A foam mat that is too soft may look and feel nice at the first step, but you will constantly be balancing on the mat, similar to walking on sand. That can be extremely fatiguing in the long run. This balancing act also improperly shifts the weight, and that can lead to misalignment health issues. For chefs who spend hours cooking or baking, this type is too light to provide a good cushioning.

Mats that are at least 3/8 inch, 1/2 inch, or closer to 1 inch thick would be best, but not too high to create a tripping hazard. The best mats will also have a tapered edge to prevent tripping hazards and the wider the taper, the better.

The bottom line: If you’ve already experienced foot, knee, or back pain and you stand for hours, a lightweight mat will probably be inadequate. Go for an industrial-grade mat with essential features to reduce foot strain.

Furnish Your Facilities With Floor Mats

There’s no need to worry about using our range of anti-fatigue mats in situations where they may become soiled as you can clean the mats using a hose not exceeding 60psi. For optimum results use a mild detergent. Use of degreasers or caustic chemicals can damage some types of matting as can a high pressure hose, so best to use a lower pressure hose not exceeding 60psi to remove dirt and debris.

Heavy-duty rubber mats are an ideal solution in an industrial environment. They are naturally weighty and therefore stay in place. Not only do they contain anti-fatigue properties, but they also provide an anti-slip flooring which conforms to slip resistance testing EN 13552. They’re specially designed to allow spilled liquids to drain through the holes to the floor beneath to avoid slippery puddles forming.

For the safest of working areas, it’s a good idea to look for a mat with a bevelled edge. This tapered edge creates a smooth transition from the mat to the floor which in turn makes it far less of a trip hazard. That’ll keep your Health and Safety manager content!

Sanitary & Safety Issues

Regardless of whether you choose a mat simply based on light cushioning or heavy-duty use, if the mat is for your kitchen or bath area, for sanitary reasons it must be washable. Kitchen mats can harbor food bacteria and bathroom mats are prone to germs and should be cleaned regularly.

An anti-fatigue mat with a grid or highly pebbled surface is great for industrial use where it can be hosed down but might be hard to keep clean in the kitchen. When a mat’s top layer becomes cracked or peels, cleaning becomes ineffective, and the mat should be replaced. Read the product information and for health reasons, make sure you can wash or sanitize it.

To avoid tripping hazards, choose a mat with tapered edges that do not hinder the transition from floor to mat. And balancing on a soft foam mat can also pose a falling hazard to those with stability issues such as seniors.

Safe Industrial has a choice of anti fatigue matting that is proven to not only to help reduce stress on the joints and muscles, but improves work performance and health and safety in the workplace. It does this by helping to relieve the strains connected with standing up and operating machinery for long periods of time.

Pain and discomfort can cause a person to tire out quickly and loose job efficiency, resulting in poor work performance, and possible further harm through accidents associated with trips, falls, and accidents with electrical appliances, or serious lacerations.

How To Choose Your Anti Fatigue Mat

The Industrial Anti Fatigue Mats available in our range each offer their own benefits, ensuring that you can find matting that works in every environment. Below are some of the features to look out for when purchasing your mat.

Anti Fatigue Mats for Wet Floors

Is the mat to be used in a Wet Area? i.e. the mat is to be used in an industrial environment involving liquids including Water, Chemicals, Oils, Grease, etc. If so, then be aware that Foam Anti Fatigue Mats or may not be suitable for these types of liquids. Where the mat is to come into contact with oils & grease then we would recommend a rubber mat with a higher Nitrile content to increase its lifespan.

If your mat will be used in a dry area, with no standing water on the floors, then foam anti fatigue mats will be your best choice.

Anti Fatigue Mats with Wheeled Traffic

If trolleys and pallet trucks are likely to roll over the mat, we recommend avoiding foam but using solid rubber or vinyl topped mats instead.

Anti Fatigue Matting Material

As a simple rule of thumb, PVC foam and Vinyl anti fatigue mats tend to be at the more lighter usage end of the market and therefore the more punishment that the mat will take will require it to have more and more rubber content.

Many of our mats come with the option of having plain yellow or black and yellow edging in order to further enhance their visibility and health and safety qualities.
