From SelecTech’s ebook Checklist for Selecting ESD Flooring
Quite simply, some flooring is better for humans to stand on for long periods of time than others. Floor selection takes on an even greater weight nowadays when sitting is viewed as the new smoking and workers who could sit are choosing to stand (e.g. standing desks). So, what are your options and how comfortable are those options?
For example, epoxies are hard. The same holds true with glued-down vinyl flooring. Unfortunately, the more ergonomic and comfortable the floor, the higher the cost. Going the extra mile can provide a return on investment in that workers who are more comfortable will be more productive and miss less time due to standing-related injuries, like plantar fasciitis. Fewer injuries and more comfortable work conditions also improve retention. Our FreeStyle interlocking tiles offer exceptional comfort due to the thickness of the tile, it’s composition, and the waffle structure in the base of the tile. As a footnote, many SelecTech and StaticStop customers have recouped the cost of buying more comfortable, ergonomic flooring based on those factors.
