With our UV-LED flatbed printing technology, AcroMat can print any logo or custom safety message, anywhere on any of our anti-fatigue mats. Custom-printed anti-fatigue mats provide a unique opportunity to elevate safety and reinforce brand identity – all at the ground level.
If considering integrating company logos or custom safety messaging into your mats but unsure of the value-add, here are 5 benefits of custom-printed anti-fatigue mats.
1. Strengthen Brand Identity
Brand identity and consistency aren’t a nice-to-have; they’re a proven business driver. In fact, Marq’s annual State of Brand Consistency report shows 68% of businesses say brand consistency has contributed to 10-20% in revenue growth.
Premium nitrile anti-fatigue mats have proven to reduce pain and discomfort by as much as 50% compared to hard surfaces. Custom-printed anti-fatigue mats with your logo, mission statement or another visual element are a subtle yet effective way to not only prioritize ergonomic health but also reinforce brand identity across your facility.
In this 60-second video, see a glimpse of what's possible with AcroMat's flatbed printing technology. Unlike traditional printers, our system designs into your mats (not on) in 4 UV-LED layers, ensuring long-term durability and aesthetic.
2. Elevate safety where it matters most
According to the National Safety Council, slips, trips and falls are the No. 2 most preventable workplace injury. Machine-related incidents, often caused by tripping or slipping, are the No. 1 most preventable workplace injury.
Printing clear, vibrant safety messages directly onto your anti-fatigue mats gives you the ability to provide traction and ergonomic comfort while also reminding employees of critical safety protocols in fast-moving, high-risk zones. Custom printing also gives you a chance to reaffirm to employees that you’re truly living a culture of safety and employee health.
Smith & Wesson designed 10+ AcroMat anti-fatigue mats with clear safety messages to reinforce critical safety protocols throughout their facility.
One unique example is the custom anti-fatigue mats below, designed by a windows manufacturer in partnership with AcroMat. The company designed yellow sections into a number of custom mats to highlight elevation changes. The change from black to yellow lets employees know to step carefully.
While yellow sections have worked well for this manufacturer, another option in this area could be to integrate safety messaging like “3 in. elevation increase on yellow surface. Step carefully.”
This windows manufacturer designed yellow sections into their custom anti-fatigue mats to spotlight elevation changes. With AcroMat's custom printing capabilities, another option would be to add safety messaging to these areas.
3. Create a Cohesive and Professional Look
Over 50% of employees value aesthetically pleasing workspaces, and nearly 80% say workplace design impacts their mental health. Custom-printed mats can elevate safety for employees, proving to them they are a priority, and create a sense of pride and ownership.
Do you use anti-fatigue mats in heavy industrial settings, where workplace design is primarily focused on performance? Is your work environment dusty or wet and oily, filled with product shavings, or does it have that highly common brown and grey aesthetic?
In heavy manufacturing environments especially, printed logos and safety messaging can add aesthetic to a work environment that may be lacking – bringing color, organization and key messages to employees who work long hours on their feet.
Smurfit Westrock added logos to their custom AcroMat anti-fatigue mats to reinforce brand identity and create a cohesive and professional look for employees, candidates, and touring clients alike.
4. Impress clients and Job Seekers
According to Jobvite’s survey of 1,500+ FT professionals, an astounding 88% say company culture is critical to their decisions around whether to accept a new job or remain with a company. While printing on your mats won’t determine the worth of your culture, safety messages do give you the opportunity to visually represent your culture in action somewhere you’ve never been able to before – the ground level.
In customer-facing areas – like tours in a prestigious manufacturing facility or cashier stations in large improvement stores – custom printing can keep your brand and what you stand for top of mind as clients filter in and out.

5. Combine Printing with Custom Shapes and Sizes
Workspaces come in all shapes and sizes. Your anti-fatigue mats should too. This became our mission at AcroMat after hundreds of safety and production leaders shared that “having to piece together rectangular mats” to fill complex workspaces was their No. 1 challenge with anti-fatigue mats.
This vision has led to who we are today, a custom anti-fatigue mat manufacturer dedicated to making custom mats to any shape and size so that you can make sure your people get home from work as safe and healthy as when they arrived.
But custom shapes and sizes are only one piece of the puzzle.
To really give you the ability to design the mats you need, we brought custom printing capabilities in-house where we manufacture our mats so you can add logos and safety messages to any mat, anywhere you need them.
Safety isn’t about the biggest mat or most unique shape. It’s about having the ability to get exactly what you need to seamlessly safeguard your workforce. This is the future of the anti-fatigue mat industry, and AcroMat is thrilled to be pioneering it.
Whether custom shape and size, built-in yellow stripes to highlight safe zones, logo printing or custom safety messages, "custom" anti-fatigue mats are all about making sure you have the ability to get exactly what your workforce needs.
Summary: Showcase Your Values
Investing in custom-printed anti-fatigue mats is a smart decision that goes beyond aesthetics. It’s about creating a safer, more organized, and visually cohesive environment that reflects your brand’s commitment to quality and your culture’s commitment to safety.
Custom-printed logos and safety messaging can be added to any AcroMat 100-1 Series, 100-ESD Series, or 100-Cleanroom Series anti-fatigue mat. Unlike traditional printers where logos quickly fade, we've invested in cutting-edge technology that prints in four UV-LED layers – primer, white, full color, and clear-coat finish. This ensures aesthetic and long-term durability.
