New Anti-Fatigue Matting Really
is a Hog for Punishment
A
comfortable new safety and anti-fatigue matting designed
for long life in high traffic work areas such as factories,
storerooms, warehouses and workshops has been introduced
by The General Mat Company.
Hog
HeavenT No. 260 matting features a solid nitrile
rubber surface for better chemical resistance, combined
with a 16mm thick closed cell nitrile/PVC cushion backing
for long-lasting comfort without breaking down.
General Mat Company Managing
Director Mr Michael Siegle says Hog
Heaven's cushion is moulded
to the nitrile surface to ensure a cleaner, more
uniform construction.
Safety is further enhanced
by a slip-resistant textured nitrile surface and by a
100 per cent nitrile rubber border that remains flexible
for the life of the product without cracking or curling.
"As Australia's workforce
ages - and as the physical and economic consequences
of slip and fall accidents become more of a
risk - it is more important than ever to ensure people aren't standing on hard
surfaces for extended periods." says Mr Siegle.
Quite apart from lost workdays
and compensation costs resulting from slip and strain
injuries, there is increasing personal litigation against
employers and building owners who are shown to have been
negligent in their responsibilities under WorkCover provisions
and the Building
Code of Australia.
Hog Heaven responds to safety
and anti-fatigue
concerns on two levels:
It not only provides superior
performance from the date of installation, but also its
quality construction sustains this performance over the
long term and prevents matting breaking down and tripping
the very
people it is meant to protect."
Available in either black
or with yellow/black chevron borders, Hog Heaven comes
in four standard sizes or custom lengths up to 6.6 metres
in widths of 600mm, 830mm or 1160mm. |
