In some industries, the use of anti-static mats is mandatory, as they can lead to workplace accidents and short-circuits in machinery and other equipment.

As the name suggests, this mat has been specially designed for the food industry.

Standing work and the repetition of movements are the 2 main causes of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). To remedy this problem, it is necessary to implement measures to reduce the risks. Placing professional mats in strategic locations on agri-food sites will offer improved safety and working hygiene in this highly regulated field.
