Custom Floor Mats

Marketing & merchandising tips for floor mats

 

How does it feel to sit down in your front seat and suddenly realize that the jumbled mess at your feet (a.k.a., the floor mat) needs to be adjusted? You can either get out and adjust the mat or act like a contortionist trying to reach the mat without getting out of the vehicle. Chances are consumers regularly have this experience too. So how do you get them to realize the real answer to their problems isn't the daily floor mat adjustment, but rather a replacement to a better product?

* Have a broad selection of mats that meet good-better-best pricing. Some buyers want mats designed for their vehicle.

* Tie cleaning products, like rug and upholstery cleaners, to your floor mat display. These items will sell to those consumers interested in keeping their vehicles' interiors clean.

* Upsell shoppers to a suitable replacement. Remind customers that low-end models will not withstand the day-to-day beatings that most mats endure. Point to their old mats as proof.

 

Floor mats prevent fatigue and reduced productivity

Slips and falls are the second most common cause of injuries

EMPLOYEES WHO STAND ON hard work surfaces such as concrete, tile, or linoleum eight hours a day often suffer from fatigue and discomfort. This can, as the shift progresses, quickly translate into reduced productivity.

Shoe insoles can be a cost-effective solution. But so can anti-fatigue matting. Cushioned industrial floor matting is not only a low-cost preventive for foot and lower leg aches, pains, and muscular cramps but has the added advantage of improving workplace safety by greatly reducing the potential for slips and falls. It does so by providing an abrasion-resistant cushioned surface; some floor mats also allow fluids, oils, and grease to drain through holes in the surface rather than collecting underfoot.

Falls commonplace

Slips and falls are the second most common cause of injury in the workplace, says the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. There are some 300,000 disabling slips and falls annually, of which 1,400 become fatalities. The National Safety Council has calculated the average cost of a slip and fall injury at $28,000.

One work force survey indicated that more than 80% of factory workers have at some time experienced severe foot and leg pain due to muscle fatigue resulting from having to stand in one place for long periods of time. Many standees also develop chronic low-- back pain.

Most industrial matting is modular and is designed either for wet or dry environments. Mats for use in low temperatures or that are flame resistant or static dissipative also are available.

Matting is usually made of vulcanized or nitrile rubber, Zedlan foam, or vinyl or urethane bonded to a PVC sponge base. Many users believe that Zedlan foam offers the best balance of softness and resilience for dry environments. For demanding wet conditions where chemicals and caustic substances are present, molded rubber mats using a nitrile formulation are usually specified.

Anti-fatigue matting can cost from as little as 50 cents a square foot to $2.50 a square foot for dry areas, and up to $7 a square foot for heavy-use areas. For wet areas, matting ranges from $4.50 up to $9 or $11 a square foot. Some extra-thick specialty matting can cost more than $12 a square foot.
