Industrial Mats

Industrial mats are important safety products designed to protect workers from a variety of workplace hazards. Although they may occasionally be hard to see, the majority of dangers in an industrial work environment are obvious. They include such problems as spills or dropped tools and materials. That said, statistics have shown that as dangerous as these hazards may be, worker fatigue and discomfort may actually be an even greater problem.

Standing for an extended period of time is uncomfortable, especially if it is on a hard surface. In such situations, the muscles in the legs tend to contract, restricting blood flow. This leads the heart to work harder to distribute blood through the rest of the body, causing an increase in fatigue. Over time, recurring pain can develop in the legs, leading to potentially more complicated problems.

At Airomat, our industrial mats are designed to provide users with comfortable support. The secret doesn't lie simply in making the mat soft. On the contrary, some of our mats are reasonably firm, but have a certain amount of "give" that creates the necessary support. This support with give actually stimulates the leg muscles, eliminating static muscles and improving blood flow. As simple as standing on one of our mats may be, it can have a dramatic effect on an employee's energy level and mindset.

In addition to improving worker safety, one of our industrial mats (the AI Single Ply (SP) mat) can also counter another common problem in industrial workplaces: clean up. Since our AI Single Ply (SP) mats are designed with large openings, any spilled liquid or dirt simply flows to the ground, keeping workers from repeatedly stepping on these substances. At the end of the day, the mats are simply rolled up, providing easy access for clean up, and the mat almost rolls itself back out once you're done. Not only do our industrial mats keep workers from slipping on such spillages, they also ensure they won't track the mess throughout the rest of your complex.
