Anti-Fatigue Workplace Matting

Promote Micro-Movements with Anti-Fatigue Workplace Matting 

Each anti-fatigue workplace mat has been meticulously crafted, from the combination of material properties to ergonomic design, to promote micro-movements and better circulation around the body. Typically made from rubber, vinyl, foam or gel, an anti-fatigue mat provides cushioned support while maintaining stability to keep your employees’ feet comfortable during long shifts. Combined with either circular cutouts, bubbles or other raised designs, these mats make employees slightly unstable forcing small muscle movements in the feet and legs, promoting blood circulation that would otherwise stagnate on hard surfaces. It’s more than just about ensuring your employees’ comfort, it’s about making their health and wellbeing a priority too! 

The Benefits of Installing Anti-Fatigue Workplace Mats

Anti-fatigue workplace mats offer significant benefits for workers who stand for extended periods. From reduced muscle fatigue to increased slip resistance, here are just a few reasons why you need an anti-fatigue workplace mat in your facility:

• Reduced Muscle Fatigue: The slight cushioning encourages subtle foot and leg muscle movements, improving blood circulation and reducing static muscle strain. 

• Decreased Lower Back Pain: By providing support and promoting better posture, these mats help alleviate pressure on the spine and lower back muscles. 

• Enhanced Productivity: Workers experience less discomfort and fatigue, allowing them to maintain focus and efficiency throughout their shift. 

• Lowered Risk of Musculoskeletal Disorders: Regular use helps prevent long-term conditions like plantar fasciitis, knee pain and other musculoskeletal issues. 

• Increased Slip Resistance: Many anti-fatigue mats feature non-slip surfaces and beveled edges, reducing fall hazards in workplaces.

FAQs

Do anti-fatigue mats actually work?

Yes, anti-fatigue workplace mats, such as these COBA anti-fatigue workplace mats, have been scientifically proven to reduce muscle fatigue and discomfort by providing cushioning that promotes subtle muscle movements and improves circulation. 

What is the best thickness for an anti-fatigue mat?

The optimal thickness for an anti-fatigue mat typically ranges between 3/8 inch (9.5mm) and 1 inch (25mm), with most commercial-grade options falling around 1/2 inch (12-15mm). The ideal thickness for your workplace depends on how much cushioning you prefer to offer without creating a trip hazard from the mat itself. 

Do anti-fatigue mats keep you off balance?

No, quality anti-fatigue mats are designed to provide subtle instability that encourages beneficial micro-movements without compromising overall balance or safety. Think of it as standing on a memory foam pillow! You get the comfort of the foam but you still have to make small adjustments to your stance to stay on balance.
