FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SATECH Inc. Expands SmartCells®
Anti-Fatigue Matting Product Line
Custom-fit platforms, runners and mats use a new generation of ergonomic technology for improving productivity and reducing fatigue and injuries
Chehalis, Wash. — October 25, 2004 — SATECH Inc. a Washington-based technology and products company, today announced the expansion of SmartCells anti-fatigue systems to include custom-fit platforms, runners and mats. Ergonomically optimized to increase worker productivity and reduce fatigue and injury, SmartCells systems are particularly effective for standing workers in manufacturing, retail, airport, warehouse, assembly, laboratory and post office environments.
“Within just a matter of days, team members were raving about the new SmartCells mats and platforms,” said Ken Barnes, Brown and Cole loss prevention manager. “Sore feet, backs and shoulders are gone for many of them. I have no doubt that SmartCells will help reduce employee fatigue and thereby reduce accidents.”
Manufactured from durable, synthetic rubber, SmartCells technology consists of a matrix of hollow cylinders that function like springs and actually get softer when compressed — unlike typical foam mats that get harder when compressed. The distinctive cushioning technology offers secure, stable footing and an optimal level of firmness.
SmartCells Systems Benefits:
- Increase productivity — SmartCells technology enables workers to stand and walk comfortably for longer periods of time while reducing injury and minimizing pain and fatigue.
- Improve Workplace Safety — SmartCells eliminate the need to stack mats and as a result reduce trip hazards. SmartCells also provide better protection for workers who fall. Workers’ compensation claims may be reduced.
- Better Durability —SmartCells typically last 2-4 times longer than foam mats and are covered by an 8-year warranty.
SmartCells anti-fatigue platforms are custom fit to the work environment in counter-to-wall or wall-to-wall configurations. Platforms feature durable one-inch thick pads and a choice of aluminum or molded rubber ramps. Runners are modular and can be easily assembled to any length. Mats come in 2x3 and 3x5 foot sizes or a 22-inch octagon. Products are now available online at www.smartcellsmat.com.
