Safety Matting – Essential WHS Protection and Risk Reduction for Australian Workplaces

Safety Matting is a critical component of any comprehensive Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) strategy across Australian industrial, commercial, and public spaces. Designed to mitigate specific risks, this matting includes specialised surfaces for preventing slips on wet floors, providing high visibility in hazard zones, insulating against electrical shocks, and reducing impact injury from falls.

Implementing the correct safety matting is a simple yet highly effective way to comply with Australian safety standards and protect personnel. Verdex supplies a diverse range of specialized Safety Matting solutions tailored for environments from workshops to production lines. These mats are a non-negotiable part of our broader offering of professional Industrial Workplace Equipment.

 

The Critical Role of Safety Matting in Risk Management

While general Floor Matting provides basic cleanliness, safety matting offers functional, risk-specific protection:

  • Slip Resistance: Features aggressive tread patterns and drainage systems to maintain secure footing in wet, oily, or greasy areas, preventing the leading cause of workplace accidents.

  • Electrical Insulation: Specialist dielectric matting is used around high-voltage switchboards and equipment to insulate workers, a necessity in accordance with Australian electrical safety regulations.

  • Hazard Identification: High-contrast colours and borders can be used to delineate safe walkways, hazard zones, and mandatory PPE areas on the factory floor, enhancing overall safety awareness.

  • Enhanced Comfort: Many safety mats also feature cushioning properties. For areas requiring extended standing, these overlap with benefits offered by our dedicated Anti Fatigue Mats and general Ergonomic Matting solutions.

 

Integrating Matting into General Workplace Safety
