Anti Fatigue Mat

How Anti Fatigue Mats Work

Standing on your feet all day on hard tile or cement lab floors can be exhausting and painful!

When you stand for an extended period of time it creates a static load on your joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons and spine, which can cause soreness and possible injury.

Standing on hard surfaces will cause your leg muscles to become tight and constricted and blood flow through your legs and body becomes reduced.  This in turn will cause aches, pain and fatigue.

Anti fatigue mats work by gently motivating subtle movement in your legs and calf muscles, which facilitates better blood flow throughout your entire body and reduces the static load on your entire body.

If standing on hard surfaces in your lab is something you do routinely, you should take action to minimize the effects of this activity.  There is enough on your mind already making sure everything goes correctly at the grossing, special staining, IHC and slide assembly & distribution stations to be thinking about how sore your body is each day!

The Ultimate Solution:

Features:

The top layer is a high gloss pebble surface of non-porous vinyl.  This layer is 1/8″ thick and provides resistance to punctures from heels, cart traffic, tears, and cuts.

This provides buoyancy to help reduce fatigue. 2″ tapered edge on perimeter of the mat to the floor. Chemical resistant to the majority of chemistries in a histology lab.  (Rhino-Hide surface shows little to no damage when xylene is in direct contact with surface for 10 minutes or less) Available in 2 thicknesses: 1/2″ and 7/8″.
