Alan Bartlett and Sons is a family-owned company specialising in the large scale supply of carrots and parsnips. The crops are grown on its own farms and then processed and packed at a state-of-the-art factory at Chatteris in Cambridgeshire. The workers handling the produce were spending long hours standing on the chequer plate metal floor that surrounded the production lines, resulting in fatigue and discomfort. The floor was also a slip hazard when wet.

Alan Bartlett and Sons is a family-owned company specialising in the large scale supply of carrots and parsnips. The crops are grown on its own farms and then processed and packed at a state-of-the-art factory at Chatteris in Cambridgeshire. The workers handling the produce were spending long hours standing on the chequer plate metal floor that surrounded the production lines, resulting in fatigue and discomfort. The floor was also a slip hazard when wet.
We recommended Vynagrip, our hard-wearing matting that delivers both slip resistance and anti-fatigue properties. The two-layer construction provides comfortable cushioning, plus anti-fatigue properties proven to help boost productivity. Certified slip resistant, it has a diamond cut pattern for excellent grip underfoot, and an open grid for fast drainage and fall through.
The mat's non-porous PVC construction is naturally resistant to bacteria growth, making it ideal for workplaces where food is being processed. Easy to cut to fit on site, Vynagrip sits flush against the processing lines and provides a seamless one-piece covering.
Our number one defence against slippery environments, Vynagrip is a heavy-duty mat that delivers both slip resistance and anti-fatigue properties.
Choose from modules with ramped PVC edging or rolls in standard widths and 10m lengths
Easy to cut on site; contours to uneven surfaces
No special cleaning tools needed; easy to clean with a high pressure hose
