Relief 40 Years In The Making

Titans of CNC previous had mats that were "trash" according to Barry. How they looked, felt, and performed were at odds with the rest of their facility. Tired of low-grade mats that weren't elevating the facility or employee comfort, Barry set out online to find the "best mats on the market." The name he kept being recommended was AcroMat.

Barry received two free 5 ft. by 7 ft. sample mats for his team to keep and put to the test. After evaluating the mats at home and in the Titans of CNC facility, gathering feedback from team members and being certain of performance, Titans of CNC partnered with AcroMat for 25 additional 5 ft. by 7 ft. 100-1 Series anti-fatigue mats.

According to Barry, key selling points for Titans of CNC included AcroMat's Lifetime Performance Warranty, something he had never seen before in the matting industry, guarantees against manufacturing defects, overall durability, and unparalleld comfort.

"AcroMat has cured a lot of the problems I've had for my almost 40 years in the field," says Barry. "I don't get near the amount of fatigue I used to get. I don't trip anymore. I love it, man."

Pain Relief and Elevated Culture

According to Barry's team members, CNC Machinists Dale S. and Jessie Smith, the comfort surpasses anything they have experienced before.

"I have three herniated discs in my lower back so I'll be in a lot of pain by the end of the day if the mats are worn out or, you know, just low quality," says Dale. "With AcroMat, I can tell a difference in how thick these are and how supportive they feel when I step onto them. I can immediately feel pressure release off my back and my knees."

"These are the most comfortable mats I've ever stood on," adds Jessie. "I can actually stand there and enjoy my job."

Barry, Dale and Jessie also added that, over their decades of collective experience in manufacturing and CNC machining, they are used to companies forcing them to stand on hard, dirty concrete. With AcroMat mats, they feel invested in and supported.

"It's definitely a variable that adds up to a positive work environment, to a positive culture, and a positive workplace," concludes Dale.

I have three herniated discs in my lower back, so I'll be in a lot of pain with bad mats. With AcroMat, I can immediately feel pressure release off my back and my knees.
