Industrial safety matting comes in many forms and has many different uses. Anti-fatigue mats are used by workers to make standing for long periods of time more bearable. They also increase productivity and reduce body pain in areas such as the neck, back and legs. Rubber matting is usually manufactured from either foam pvc, black rubber or nitrile rubber matting. Foam pvc is light, durable and cost-effective making it a great choise for small workstations or light use. Rubber matting and nitrile rubber matting are good for large industrial areas where possibly heavy machinery is used or there is a lot of foot taffic or workers standing. Nitrile rubber has the added benefit of being resistant to oils and chemicals commonly found in industry. Anti-fatigue rubber matting has been proven in university studies to reduce the pain and discomfort experienced by workes standing in the same position for extended periods of time. PVC matting and rubber matting with holes is also good for areas where liquids or swarf cbuild up from machine tools and drilling stations.
