Like every business, you want to concentrate on creating the best possible products and offering your customers the highest services – and thinking about anything else can seem like a waste of time. However, part of creating a successful business is employing happy, healthy team members and offering a clean, safe environment to work in. One easy way to ensure both are equally cared for is by using anti fatigue mats throughout your workplace. At Bardwell Matting, we stock a wide variety of premium mats to meet a range of applications, and they all offer similar core benefits.
As the name suggests, these mats are designed to help prevent fatigue in workers who are required to stand all day. The mating works through a clever design which forces the user to continuously adjust their stance through tiny, microscopic movements – meaning they don’t have to monitor themselves throughout the day. In turn, this reduces the strain on their bodies and ensures they don’t become tired as quickly!
If you’re tired and in pain at work, it comes as no surprise that you’ll likely be stressed and upset as well! Thanks to our anti fatigue mats, your employees will experience far less unnecessary day to day stress, leaving you with a happier, healthier team.
Just as these mats reduce fatigue by decreasing the strain on the body, they also lessen the likelihood of injuries! Standing completely still for an extended period of time can have a number of negative effects on the body, including limited circulation, and foot, leg and lower back pain – however, the microscopic movements we mentioned above go a long way to reducing the likelihood of these injuries.
Accidents happen throughout the workplace, and there is nothing that can be done to remove all chances of human error. However, with these mats, your floor will be cushioned – meaning damage done to both your products and the floor in the event of dropped products and other items will be reduced!
Excessive sound in the workplace can be frustrating, and can lead to accidents and carelessness from distracted staff. In placing our matting under heavy duty machinery, you can expect the sounds and vibrations to be absorbed!
As you can see, using anti fatigue mats throughout your workspace may be one of the best investments you make for both your employees and the building itself. Offering protection against a range of common workplace injuries, and they also protect the floors themselves from accidents and mishaps. If you’re considering purchasing matting for your business, we recommend custom made options – designed to fit your space perfectly, they can also be printed with a safety message or your logo.
