Anti-fatigue mat or hairdressing mat
The anti-fatigue mat or hairdressing mat primarily combats fatigue by providing a soft, springy surface on which you continuously correct your posture by unconsciously tensing your calf and leg muscles, thereby keeping blood circulation flowing in the legs. After a day of work, you will be noticeably less tired and prevent health problems later in life.
Pain and fatigue from standing for long periods on a hard floor
Painful joints, lower back pain, headaches, swollen ankles, heel spurs, and varicose veins are common complaints among hairdressers who stand for long periods. Reduce the risk of absence due to illness or injury by using anti-fatigue mats.
Reduce absenteeism in your salon
Absenteeism rates in the hairdressing industry show that over 75% of absences are caused by joint and muscle conditions. The preventive effect of our mats has a positive impact on absenteeism.
Maintain your energy levels and restore your productivity
Help your staff maintain their energy levels throughout the workday. Less pain and fatigue lead to lower absenteeism and improved productivity. Your employees will work with greater enjoyment, which has a positive effect on your customers.
Prevention is better than cure…
Working in a hair salon means spending a lot of time on your feet on a hard floor. This is not only tiring but can also lead to serious health problems and prolonged absenteeism. Varicose veins, heavy legs, painful joints, lower back pain, and headaches are common complaints in a standing profession. Standing on a hard floor is not beneficial for blood circulation in the lower legs. You can find more information about the risks of standing professions on the ARBO portal of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment.
This anti-fatigue mat reduces fatigue complaints by over 50% and improves blood flow to and from the legs. The mat stimulates blood circulation and reduces pressure on the joints and lower back. The mat's soft surface provides comfort while ensuring a correct working position. This enables you to work longer without irritation in your back, legs, and feet.
The hairdressing mat in detail
This salon mat is black, has a semi-circular shape with a round cutout, and is therefore also suitable for chairs with a swivel base. The mat is 122 cm wide and 16 mm thick. The top layer is made of PVC, so hair and other debris can be easily wiped off. In addition, PVC is naturally highly resistant to chemicals, so paint stains or hydrogen peroxide can be easily removed. The mat is made of high-quality polyurethane foam, contains millions of air cells, and thus provides a comfortable standing surface.
Is polyurethane durable?
Polyurethane contains virtually no harmful substances and is extremely durable. Given the growing need for materials that do not harm our environment, this is a major advantage. Polyurethane is a molecule that can be made by mixing isocyanate and polyol—a substance with multiple alcohol groups of oxygen and hydrogen. These substances undergo a chemical reaction and form a polymer, or composite molecule.
Polyurethane is not actually a (natural) rubber or plastic, but rather falls somewhere in between. It has the strength of plastic and the elasticity of rubber. The material can be mixed in various proportions. Polyurethane (PU) is an important family of polymers with many applications. Polyurethane makes our lives easier, more comfortable, and more environmentally friendly. What makes polyurethane special is that products can be molded into any conceivable shape.
Invest in the health of yourself and your staff
Primarily, the mat combats fatigue in the feet and legs and prevents back and joint problems. An additional benefit of this mat is that if you accidentally drop, for example, an expensive pair of hairdressing scissors, hairdryer, phone, or clipper, it will provide a soft landing and thus prevent immediate damage; it also protects the floor.
Anti-fatigue mats (hairdressing mats) are specifically designed to combat fatigue and joint problems caused by standing for long periods in the salon. Special shoes alone are not enough. In the United States, for example, these mats are now indispensable, but they are still relatively unknown in Europe. The mat is an investment in your own health and that of your staff. Research by the ANKO-ARBO service shows that prolonged standing is the cause of many cases of absenteeism in hair salons. Examples include fatigue, varicose veins, heel spurs, back problems, headaches, etc.
The hairdressing mat and hairdressing bike
The hairdressing bike on the mat is not an ideal combination, as the soft surface makes rolling more difficult.
Ergonomic working
The ergonomically designed hairdressing mat helps distribute body weight evenly when standing for long periods. The mat's powerful memory foam helps eliminate uneven distribution of body weight, thereby restoring proper balance and relieving the pressure normally exerted on certain points in the legs and hips.
Reduces fatigue and health problems
Standing for long periods on a hard surface (more than 20 minutes at a time) causes muscles to tense as they work to keep the body upright. This causes blood circulation to stagnate because the heart has to work harder to pump oxygen to constricted blood vessels in the muscles.
The unique design of the anti-fatigue mat promotes subtle contractions of the leg and calf muscles, as they continuously adapt to the mat's flexible surface. This promotes normal blood flow, increases the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, prevents cramps, and reduces overall fatigue.
Lower back
While standing, the lower back muscles work tirelessly to keep your core upright and stabilize your entire body, which can cause lower back pain and lead to chronic back problems over time.
By helping to reduce body weight and stimulating micro-movements in the lumbar muscles, compression on the spine is reduced, and pain is significantly lessened or prevented.
Pressure points in feet and ankles
The perfect balance between cushioning and support distributes weight evenly across the feet, relieves pressure on certain points, and helps with acute and chronic conditions in the lower limbs, such as plantar fasciitis, varicose veins, fallen arches (flat feet), Achilles tendonitis, and arthritis.
