Anti-fatigue mats designed for office environments can simply be cleaned by vacuuming or sweeping the mat if necessary.

Those that are built for wet areas can be cleaned by simply hosing the mat with water and if necessary, you can wash it with mild soap or detergent.

We recommend air drying the mat to prevent moisture from being trapped between the mat and the floor, which can encourage mould to grow.

Anti-fatigue mats should be used in environments where the manufacturer intended them for use. This can range from only dry environments to both wet and dry areas.

Deciding on which anti-fatigue mat best suits your needs will depend on various factors such as the environmental conditions the mat will be used in, frequency of use, etc. For wet environments prone to spilled liquids, mats with drainage holes are ideal to prevent slips.

For workplaces such as offices, compact foam mats are ideal as it provides relief when standing and can be easily stored away. For industrial environments around large workbenches or processing lines, then modular and runner mats are recommended to cover the area.
