Fresher legs, better workers

Matting boosts weary workers
July 10th 2006

The Marley building materials group has installed ZedTred anti-fatigue matting in its Kent works at Lenham. The purpose is to relieve standing tiredness alongside the work benches where extruder pumps are serviced.

The matting, supplied both in roll form and individual modules, has proved very comfortable to stand on and very hardwearing. It is easy to cut and shape on site, very easy to clean and can readily be resited.

ZedTred has a proven heavy duty ribbed vinyl surface fused to a patented high molecular density foam which provides an integral long lasting cushioning base. Because the two materials are fused together thermally, they will not delaminate. This combination provides a very hardwearing, slip resistant surface which is able to withstand light spillage whilst being resistant to oil, chemical and acid spillages.

The Zed range comprises several mattings, with varying surface textures and different colours, designed for providing fatigue relief in light to heavy duty situations. The mats are available in rolls up to 18m long and in various factory-made module sizes with optional ramped edges.

Samples and information, together with the Plastex Matting and Flooring catalogue,  are available from Plastic Extruders Ltd.
