Rubber Roll matting is a popular choice of mat due to its versatility and durability. It is also a relatively inexpensive form of matting and can be used to cover large areas quickly and easily. It will come as no surprise therefore that you will see rubber roll matting frequently used in a multitude of industries.
The main benefits associated with this matting include the following:
- Provides Traction
Slips are a real hazard in many workplaces, particularly in wet areas, or where oil and grease may be an issue. Rubber mats can provide that added bit of safety underfoot which can help prevent an accident or injury.
- Provides Warmth
Workers who have to stand or walk around on cold, hard floors throughout the day will experience a chill underfoot in colder weather, which can make working long hours a great discomfort. Rubber matting placed in these areas adds a layer of thermal insulation which can help improve worker productivity and morale.
- Gives Anti Fatigue benefits
Rubber mats provide cushioning underfoot which can help reduce fatigue amongst those who would otherwise have to stand or work on hard floors. This can help to reduce injuries amongst staff and reduce absenteeism as a consequence.
- Covers large areas quickly and easily
Rubber roll mats can simply be rolled out to cover large runs. Available in a selection of widths, you can usually cut the mats to your desired length, which makes them more practical than fixed size mats when used along production lines or down corridors for instance.
- Protects the floor
In areas where traffic moves in the same places throughout day, floors may become damaged over time. Rubber roll matting provides that additional layer of protection.
- Reduces noise
Rubber matting provides excellent sound absorption, which is very useful in areas where noise can be a particular distraction to people working or trying to rest.
