Benefits of Anti-Fatigue

An injection molding manufacturer headquartered in Massachusetts produces custom parts for the lead battery, automotive and consumer markets. Years before, the company invested in laminated anti-fatigue matting throughout their facility to support the health and safety of their team. They chose various sizes of workstation mats placed at and around the different machines. Over time it became increasingly clear that the mats weren’t holding up to the high demand, high humidity conditions.

A facility in the UK conducted an internal review, which revealed a high incidence of discomfort-related complaints.  The management team identified the primary cause – prolonged standing on cold, hard concrete. Recognizing the importance of a safer, healthier environment, the company decided to invest in anti-fatigue matting to mitigate their employees’ pain and discomfort.
