Anti-Fatigue Mats

Commercial Standing Mats Designed for Australian Workplaces

Long hours on hard floors wear people down. Sore legs, tight backs, and general fatigue all add up — and in time, they impact focus, safety, and productivity.

Bardwell Matting supplies anti-fatigue mats for commercial sites across Australia, helping reduce physical strain for teams that spend most of the day on their feet. Whether it’s a packing bench, service counter, or workstation, the right mat can make a noticeable difference.

Dry Area Mats

Dry Area Mats

Office, Retail, Warehousing

If you’ve got people on their feet at a bench or till all day, these mats make a noticeable difference. They absorb shock and relieve pressure without bunching or curling — and they stay in place under light movement.

We supply ergonomic, repositionable mats designed for dry environments, including:

  • Office standing desks, workstations and reception desks
  • Retail checkouts and customer service counters
  • Packing stations and assembly benches
  • Educational facilities and tech labs
  • Light commercial use areas or break rooms
  • Healthcare admin zones or pharmacy counters

Bardwell anti-fatigue standing mats are slim, stable, and available in a range of sizes and finishes to suit your workspace. They’re ideal for staff who need to stay comfortable and steady on their feet across long shifts.

Wet Area Mats

Kitchens, Processing and Workshops

In slippery or damp environments, anti-fatigue safety mats do more than just support your legs – they also compensate for spills and improve safety. Our wet zone standing mats are designed to drain water or liquids through the surface, while maintaining grip underfoot.

They’re commonly used in:

  • Commercial kitchens
  • Food processing zones
  • Workshops and garages
  • Wet service areas or back-of-house
  • Cleaning stations or washdown areas
  • Laboratory prep zones or utility sinks

Options include drainage holes, heavy-duty construction and oil- and grease- resistant finishes, making them useful in busy food or mechanical environments.

We’ve supplied industrial anti fatigue mats in Melbourne and across Australia, including some of the country’s busiest workplaces.

Why Use an Anti-Fatigue Standing Mat?

Anti-fatigue matting works by encouraging subtle, natural movement in the lower limbs. That slight motion boosts circulation, relieves pressure on joints, and supports posture — especially during repetitive standing work.

Typical benefits include:

Reduced muscle tension and joint fatigue

Less strain on knees and lower backs

Support for better standing posture

Greater day-to-day comfort

Improved long-term safety outcomes

Fewer distractions caused by discomfort

Custom Made Fatigue Mats

Not all spaces are standard. That’s why we offer custom fatigue mats to fit unusual dimensions, corners, benches or integrated floor layouts. Some of our recent projects include:

  • Long narrow fatigue mats for warehouse walkways
  • Bevelled-edge mats for high-traffic doorways
  • Custom anti fatigue mats in Melbourne for education and healthcare clients
  • Standing desk runners for administrative areas
  • Split mats for mobile stations or reconfigurable floors
  • Full-length mats under conveyor or assembly lines

Bardwell Matting can help you design a mat that fits your space, staff and workflow.

How to Choose the Right Mat

Choosing the right anti-fatigue mat starts with a few simple questions:

  • Is it going into a dry or wet area?
  • Will it sit at a fixed station, or cover a walkway?
  • Are there oils, cleaning chemicals or food products involved?
  • Does it need to be moved regularly for cleaning?
  • Do you need ramped edges or custom sizing?
  • Does it need to match other flooring types or finishes?

Not sure which way to go? Just let us know how the area’s used, and we’ll recommend a mat that suits the work and the conditions.

FAQs

Expand All
How do anti-fatigue mats work?

They allow a bit of natural movement in your legs and feet, which keeps blood flowing and reduces the stiffness that comes from standing still on hard ground.

How long do they last?

Depends on how and where they’re used – most quality fatigue mats last for several years, sometimes over a decade. Material choice, thickness, and edge design all play a part, and we only supply mats we know hold up to real work. If you have mats that have lost shape or are starting to break down, it’s time to replace them with a Bardwell fatigue mat.

Can you supply custom sizes?

We can. We supply custom anti-fatigue mats in various materials, sizes and finishes. We make mats to fit non-standard areas, long counters, corners and other tricky or irregular layouts. Let us know what you're working with, and we’ll sort it out.

What about wet or greasy areas?

We’ve got commercial standing mats for kitchens, production lines and washdown zones. They allow water to drain and provide grip under pressure.

How do I clean fatigue mats?

Dry area and office ergonomic mats can be vacuumed or spot cleaned. Wet-area anti fatigue mats may need to be hosed or wiped down, depending on material. or pressure-washed depending on the surface.

Reduce Strain. Improve Focus.

If your team spends most of the day standing, the right mat can help reduce aches, improve safety, and make the job a little more manageable. Talk to Bardwell Matting for a solution that works — on your floor and for your people.
