FAQ About Chair Mats
Why should I buy a chair mat?
The best reasons to invest in a chair mat include:
1. Floor protection. Chair mats allow chairs to glide over carpet, hardwood, and tile surfaces without causing scratches, dents, or other damage.
2. Ergonomic support. Without a chair mat, it’s very difficult to roll across carpet floors. The resistance puts a great deal of strain on the lower back. Chair mats make it easier to glide, thereby reducing stress and strain.
3. Teamwork. Chair mats make it easier for teams of employees to collaborate and share a large work space, all while providing the protective and ergonomic benefits described above.
