What Are WellnessMats Made Of?All WellnessMats are made with our APT – Advanced Polyurethane Technology. The core of APT is polyurethane – a premium standard for anti-fatigue mats. It is more expensive than other commonly used materials, but offers the best support and comfort every time you stand on one and it provides exceptional value over time. This gives WellnessMats an extended life-cycle, making them environmentally friendly.
What Does Anti-Microbial Mean?Anti-microbial is a term given to an object that is capable of destroying or inhibiting the growth of disease-causing microorganisms. Other mats use additive anti-microbial liquid bases to coat their mats. Coated type mats tend to wear off over time and could cause the growth of bacteria. WellnessMats meets the ASTM G21 standard for anti-microbial properties – by design…inherent in our material formulation. No additives are necessary.
Where Can WellnessMats Be Used?WellnessMats can be used anywhere in the home or workplace where standing occurs. Our mats are perfect for use in the kitchen, vanity, grilling & garage areas, or any hobby including fitness. WellnessMats are also commonly found in commercial or workplace environments.
Will WellnessMats Stain My Floor?The bottom of WellnessMats are free of paints and coatings that cause staining; our unique proprietary engineering allows the color pigment to be directly injected into the polyurethane. Company research has found that some types of flooring, and Linoleum in particular, may be made from raw, sometimes inexpensive materials including linseed oil. This type of flooring and floors sealed with a non-urethane based sealer may have a tendency to cause slight discoloring when covered. Although very rare, a few cases are known where linseed oil or the adhesives used to seal floors have an oxidation effect due to lack of UV light over time. This adverse effect could happen with any type of floor covering. If you have any concerns about the chance of any discoloration or material reaction, it is our recommendation that you contact your floor installer to learn more about your finish.
