The Ergonomics of Elevation

Makeshift platforms built out of blocks of wood, pallets, or time-consuming plywood typically take multiple times to get right. Many Fortune 500 companies use their spare materials to build platforms onsite. But they are also pulling their skilled workers off necessary tasks for hours, paying them for custom woodwork rather than their true job. A quick modular system like FOUNDATION™ will allow them to stop using skilled workers for this type of labor. FOUNDATION™ is better, easy to design and assemble, faster, less costly, and requires less expertise to complete.

Why Elevation Matters:

The human body has an optimum range where it can comfortably reach and perform activities with minimal discomfort and optimum efficiency. This area is referred to as the Power Zone.  FOUNDATION™ Platforms elevate employees to work with 100% of their strength. This reduces excessive movements, creating a safer work situation to stave off fatigue, pain and discomfort. Staying within the Power Zone in a job that requires reaching is critical to ensuring long term bodily health.

How FOUNDATION™ Platforms Outperform the Competition:

Custom plywood platforms require man-hours, unpredictable material costs and precious production time. Steel platforms and pre-fabs don’t have the ability to change and evolve with your workstations, assembly lines, and changing needs. The FOUNDATION™ Platform is a surprisingly lightweight system that provides all the support your team demands and more!  Each tile boasts a load rating of 400 lbs. and is manufactured of recycled polypropylene to stand up to a wide range of chemicals. The modularity of the system allows for easy reconfigurations or maintenance. If a part of the platform is damaged for any reason, it is simple to replace just those pieces instead of having to replace an entire platform unit. FOUNDATION™ TAKES PLATFORMS TO THE NEXT LEVEL!
