We select only the best quality raw materials in our mats. Chairmats are not only built to last, they look good too! While our competition accepts missing studs or black specs in their mats, you receive a perfect mat every time. Since we manufacture nothing but chairmats, we completely control the product; from start to shipment. Why Is A Chairmat Necessary? Typical commercial grade carpet is thinner today than in the past and available "carpet casters" enable easier movement on carpet. Though it is possible to move around without a chairmat, there are two reasons that make it unwise. Chairmats protect your carpet Although newer carpet is dense enough to allow a chair to roll, carpet fibers and backing are not designed to handle the extreme pressure generated by casters. The downforce of a chair is nearly 100 times greater than a footstep! Under this stress, unprotected carpet will lose fibers and backing will break down, shortening the life of the carpet. A chairmat spreads this downforce and prevents damage to carpeting. Chairmats reduce injury and fatigue Use of a chairmat can significantly reduce lower back and joint strain because casters move more easily across a hard surface. In an eight hour workday, an office worker moves his or her chair more than 250 times per day. Some of these movements may be just inches, but they require up to twice as much effort without a chairmat. Given the frequency of these movements, a workspace without a chairmat is more susceptible to Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI).   Black Chair mats 60x66 Beaker chair mats.
