New
PowerBuy safety matting concentrates world leaders in cost-efficient
range
 The
distributor of Australia's most comprehensive range
of ergonomic, anti-fatigue and safety matting is introducing
a new range of products aimed at companies previously
unable to afford premium protection for workers.
The General Mat Company's new PowerBuy range comprises a core selection of specialist
matting from some of the world's leading producers, including the Andersen Company
and Tennessee Mat Company, producer of the Wearwell brand.
GMC Managing Director Michael Siegle - whose company has received consecutive
awards from The Tennessee Mat Company and Andersen as their best international
distributor - says GMC is grouping top selling mat types under the PowerBuy brand
to facilitate entry-level pricing for companies new to the concept of comprehensive
underfoot protection.
Because there is rising awareness that sprains or strains of the joints or adjacent
muscles now account for fully 50 per cent of new workers compensation cases,
employers are very concerned about the impact of slips, falls or conditions underfoot
that can put stress on the body. Especially with an ageing workforce, employers
are becoming more aware that there is more to ongoing workplace safety than providing
gloves, helmets and glasses, which won't protect you against a fall or longer-term
injury.
GMC's PowerBuy products are keyed not only to preventing slips and falls by providing
enhanced grip even in wet or greasy conditions, but also to providing long-term
protection through superior ergonomics including promotion of better posture
and softer, more comfortable, working surfaces. PowerBuy products
include:
- GMC Workmate, which is
grease and chemical resistant and ideal for kitchens,
restaurants, bars, food service and industrial work
stations.
- Multi Guard outdoor entrance
mat, which is designed to scrape grime from shoes to
exclude dirt from commercial premises while providing
a sure footing.
- Ribbed Cushion vinyl sponge
sandwich, which not only provides more comfortable
footing, but also helps protect against breakages in
product handling.
- Safety Cushion for enhanced
worker comfort in dry areas.
- Ortho Stand® with a domed
surface to provide a massaging feeling while encouraging
beneficial changes in posture.
- Diamond Plate Select with
sponge base, black with yellow border, formulated for
comfort and rebound during long shifts.
- Tough Rib coarse fibre
matting to provide colourful protection against dirt
and moisture in entrances and foyers.
- SevenT Solid and SevenT Holes
modular system with hidden interlocking feature, designed
to cover large areas
- GMC Economy with large
drainage holes, anti-slip traction and bevelled edges
for safe access and egress.
