<strong>Work</strong> <strong>Well</strong> <strong>Mats</strong> have over 15 years experience in providing<br />

effective solutions to physical fatigue suffered by workers.<br />

Prolonged standing on hard floors causes leg, knee, back and neck problems.<br />

Muscles become tired and weary and varicose veins can develop due to restricted<br />

blood flow against gravity up through the legs. the pressure of a hard floor can<br />

cause stiffness and tension in the back, shoulders and neck. these health<br />

hazards can cause lower productivity, poor quality, absenteeism in the workforce<br />

and even compensation and insurance costs.<br />

Whether you are:<br />

· standing on a cold industrial floor by a machine or on a production line;<br />

· on a warehouse floor by a despatch or packaging bench;<br />

· in a high tech laboratory research facility; or even<br />

· serving customers at a retail counter...<br />

... we have the answer for your needs.<br />

research has shown that <strong>Work</strong> <strong>Well</strong> <strong>Mats</strong> anti-Fatigue Matting will –<br />

1. Increase productivity by stopping fatigue setting in<br />

2. ease the stiffness in neck and shoulders which cause headaches<br />

3. reduce the pressure which prolonged standing puts on the<br />

spine and strain on the back muscles which commonly gives rise<br />

to lower back pain<br />

4. Halve the amount of energy used up to support muscles in<br />

the back and legs<br />

5. stimulate circulation guarding against varicose veins which<br />

can develop due to restricted blood flow up through the legs<br />

6. encourage frequent foot movement as users move their<br />

feet more regularly to adapt to underfoot cushioning,<br />

assisting healthy blood circulation<br />

7. reduce arch and heel pain caused by flattening of the feet<br />

Be wise; think ahead.<br />

remember, prevention is better than cure –<br />

combat fatigue now!<br />
