Challenge & Solution
A Fortune 500 luxury retail department store chain was fed up with ambiguous and constantly changing lead times from its previous anti-fatigue mat provider. Safety and productivity were impacted and, as lead time promises fell through, the company couldn't rely on getting what they needed (or when they needed it) to keep their people safe.
The durability of their previous anti-fatigue mats was also poor, leading to constant re-purchases and taxed budgets, and employees were growing frustrated.
The Fortune 500 came across AcroMat's 10-day guaranteed lead time regardless of order sizes, Lifetime Performance Warranty, and 8+ year life expectancy.
AcroMat Lead Time Guarantee:
"Every order is precision-cut and ships from our production facility in Lakeville, Minnesota, within 10 business days—guaranteed. The AcroMat anti-fatigue mats are guaranteed to never curl along the borders, sink, flatten, or lose their ergonomic cushion."
The Fortune 500 moved forward with an order that included:
- 11,300 sq. ft of custom anti-fatigue mats
- 1.3 miles of ADA-compliant yellow border
- Over 7,000 pounds of anti-fatigue mats
- Custom sizes and shapes to fit unique work areas
- 100% nitrile guaranteed to never curl, eliminating a dangerous trip hazard
- 100% nitrile guaranteed to never flatten, ensuring indefinite ergonomic support
11,300 sq. ft. of 100% nitrile mats with ADA-compliant yellow borders on all sides to reduce trip hazards and highlight entry points.
The AcroMat production team precision-cut, to the inch, and shipped several hundred anti-fatigue mats within 10 days. The custom shapes and sizes ensure unique layouts are fully covered with non-slip certified traction and indefinite ergonomic support – no longer any exposed cement, pieced together mats that were too small, or inconsistent surfaces and borders (trip hazards).
With large distribution centers and unique layouts, the Fortune 500 needed several hundred "runners" that varied in width and length – from 3 ft. to 6 ft. wide and up to 100 ft. long.
Musculoskeletal Health
The premium mats are providing the Fortune 500's people with unending ergonomic support, reducing ergonomic injury risks for workers who stand long hours. AcroMat anti-fatigue mats are guaranteed to never sink, flatten, or compress.
Precise Lead Time
The AcroMat lead time guarantee ensured the Fortune 500 received exactly what they needed to elevate health and safety, exactly when they needed it.
Cost Savings
The high durability has allowed the company to go from spending thousands of dollars every year to not having to spend on mats again for ~8 years.
