Interlocking Anti Fatigue Mats

Options for Interlocking Anti-Fatigue Mats

When employees must stand and work for much of the day, it can be quite uncomfortable. Employees who have sore lower-body joints near the end of the workday are not going to be as productive as employees who feel good physically. They may need to take more time off because of soreness. They won’t be as happy, either, which could lead to turnover.

Rather than risk these types of issues, give your employees all the tools they need to do their jobs, including a comfortable floor. Interlocking anti-fatigue mats and tiles from Greatmats have the cushioning your employees need in an easy-to-install and affordable product. It seems like a simple gesture, but you may notice a significant ROI after installing anti-fatigue interlocking floor mats through more productive employees, fewer days off, and less turnover.

Types and Materials in Interlocking Anti-Fatigue Tiles

You can make use of a variety of types of anti-fatigue interlocking mats to fit the plans you have in mind for the space.

• Large Rubber Mats: Interlocking rubber anti-fatigue mats often have a large size of 3x3 feet to cover a lot of space quickly. They may have a gritty surface texture and perforations in the tiles to deal with wet conditions.
  
• PVC Tiles: Interlocking PVC anti-fatigue mats, tiles, and rolls are water-resistant, so you can install them indoors or outdoors. Some have perforations to allow water to drain away. Multiple color choices are available.
  
• Foam Floor Mats: Interlocking foam mats are extremely comfortable when you have to stand for long periods of time or when working out. Foam materials are only suitable for indoor use. They’re available in multiple colors or faux wood grain finishes. Some foam tiles have an attached carpet top.

Where to Use Interlocking Anti-Fatigue Mats

At Greatmats, we have interlocking fatigue mats that will fit either a commercial or residential layout.

Commercial

Greatmats has multiple models of interlocking anti-fatigue mats that are durable enough to handle a commercial environment. They often are thicker than average and consist of PVC plastic or rubber to deliver the highest level of durability and value. Many have a textured surface to prevent slips.

Residential

Residential types of interlocking anti-fatigue floor mats often use foam or PVC plastic. They usually are thinner than commercial-style tiles, meaning they cost less. Some models help you convert a garage to a home gym or to cover a worn outdoor deck for a fresh look.
