Antistat™ launch new product range of ESD Anti-fatigue matting
Manufactured in the EU, Antistat’s new range of matting blends exceptional quality with durability offering a life span of up to 5 years.
This is a product release announcement by Antistat UK. The issuer is solely responsible for its content.
Constructed from a high quality blend of PU, nitrile and high-quality EPDM rubber with durability and safety central to their design and construction, Antistat’s ESD Anti-fatigue matting range is engineered to meet IEC61340-5-1 standards with Rp 105 – 107 Ohms and Rg 105 – 107 Ohms.
This tough, durable, range of long lasting production area flooring, has a cushioned surface to help reduce stress on the body for increased ergonomic safety and provides additional support for production staff in EPA's who have to endure long periods of standing.
Tapered edges to the matting also aid increased user efficiency, so workers avoid potential trips entering or exiting the production area.
‘These mats are a fantastic addition to our existing range of ESD flooring. Not only ESD safe but European manufactured, providing day long comfort for those who are on their feet for long periods of time. Available in a range of standard sizes, full rolls or made to measure, these are a great ESD flooring solution and the perfect addition to our product portfolio. We are so confident in their design and structure that we offer a minimum 3 year guarantee!’ Ron Tosh COO
The range includes:
Textured ESD Anti-slip & Oil Resistant Matting: made from 100% virgin nitrile rubber, these high-quality and durable floor mats have an elastic underside for excellent standing comfort. A top end solution for all-around industry areas - working with high work traffic, wagons and material carts. The robust surface working layer is resistant to solder- splash as well as most industrial oils and acids, and has a non-slip finish in either disc or cone surface effect for increased user safety.
ESD Textured Anti-fatigue EPA Matting: designed for automotive, electronics, metalwork and engineering industries. Conforms to ESD DIN EN 61340-5-1. You can choose either bubble or disc surface design. Bubble surface offers highest standing comfort, the disc surface offers easy access for material vehicles. Also available as fire-retardant.
Antistatic Anti-fatigue Deck Matting: Incorporating a deck plate surface design, this antistatic mat is extremely durable and easy to clean. Features yellow safety borders & ramped edges on all sides. High standing comfort and positive anti-fatigue effects on employees.
As well as stock sizes, our ESD Anti-fatigue matting is also available in bespoke sizes up to 1000m² for larger areas, interlocking floor tiles or long 30-50m mats, ideal for assembly lines.
Obsolescence management cannot be an afterthought
“Obsolescence has always existed. However, it usually only becomes really critical for companies when the exception mutates into the norm. And in recent years we have unfortunately experienced this unwanted development not only with semiconductor chips, but increasingly with many other components, materials and raw materials,” says IIOM President and COGD Chairman Dr Wolfgang Heinbach.
