Just like you, we are passionate about safety solutions too. This is why we’ve spared no expense in getting many of our safety mats tested to the latest standards in Fire, Slip, and ESD resistance. We did this in partnership with SATRA, independent research, and testing organisation who are based in the UK but serves clients worldwide. They have their own laboratories and testing facilities and we will share these test results with you soon.
As you’re aware, slips and trips cost business billions of Rands each year
Our Floor Level Safety range reduces the risk of slips and trips caused by wet and slippery conditions and is proven to increase safety and comfort. Slipping is especially dangerous if the individual falls onto a sharp or moving object falls from height or comes into contact with hot surfaces, or chemicals.

What exactly are MSDs? Musculoskeletal Disorders are injuries or conditions affecting the movement of the human body or the locomotor apparatus. They are problems that affect the muscles, tendons, ligaments, vascular system, nerves, soft tissues, bones, and joints.
MSDs are currently the most common work-related condition in South Africa and are expected to affect some 50% of the population by 20301. An average of 14 days are lost due to each MSD case – a substantial amount considering over 45% of workers complain of standing in tiring positions at work.
Anti-Fatigue Matting has been scientifically proven to reduce discomfort and fatigue2 and studies show that 86% of workers found Anti-Fatigue matting helped reduce pain or serious health complaints and 82% considered Anti-Fatigue matting to have a positive effect on increasing productivity in their company.
