Anti-Fatigue Mats

Standing on a hard floor for long periods can be tiring. A cushioned anti-fatigue mat gives your feet a softer surface, and many people find it makes standing more comfortable. This collection includes Satech SmartCells mats, the GelPro Eco-Pro, Ergotron WorkFit and Neo-Flex mats, Rhino and Startech mats, the Humanscale Monarch mat and ErgoKneel kneeling pads.

How to choose

• Size: measure your standing area; desk mats and industrial runners differ greatly.
• Material: gel, foam and cell designs feel different underfoot.
• Thickness and edges: beveled edges help reduce tripping and help chairs roll on.
• Environment: industrial and shop mats suit oil, debris and heavy traffic.
• Contoured surfaces: textured mats encourage foot movement.
