An assembly production plant in Rosslyn PTA required a solution to improve operator comfort along its production line while maintaining strict electrostatic discharge (ESD) control standards. Working through trusted distributor AA Hitech, COBAStat Grey anti-fatigue matting was installed across designated standing zones of the assembly line. The project successfully combined ergonomic support with essential ESD protection in a demanding industrial environment.

The Environment & Challenge

The installation area is a dry production environment where assembly line operatives stand continuously throughout their shifts. This presented several operational challenges:

  • Operator fatigue caused by prolonged standing on hard surfaces
  • Increased strain on legs, knees, and lower back
  • Mandatory electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to safeguard sensitive electronic components
  • A need for robust matting capable of withstanding continuous industrial use

Previously, staff stood on hard flooring surfaces, offering no cushioning or ergonomic support. The plant required a solution that would enhance comfort without compromising technical compliance.

The Solution: COBA Stat Grey

COBAStat Grey was selected as the ideal solution due to its ability to deliver both ergonomic and technical performance.

This specialist ESD anti-fatigue matting combines:

  • Proven anti-fatigue performance to reduce strain during long periods of standing
  • ESD compliance suitable for electronics-sensitive environments
  • Industrial-grade durability for continuous production traffic
  • Practical installation along linear assembly workstations

The mats were installed across key operator standing zones along the assembly line, replacing hard-standing areas and immediately improving workstation ergonomics.

Installation Outcome

The transformation delivered both functional and visual improvements to the production floor.

Operators now benefit from cushioned standing support, helping to alleviate pressure on joints and muscles during long shifts. At the same time, the environment maintains full ESD protection, ensuring sensitive components remain safeguarded throughout the assembly process.

The installation also enhanced the professional appearance of the workstations, creating clearly defined standing areas with a cleaner, more organised finish.

Key Benefits Delivered

  • Reduced operator fatigue during extended shifts
  • Improved comfort and productivity at assembly stations
  • Reliable ESD protection for electronics assembly processes
  • Industrial durability suitable for demanding 24/7 operations
  • Enhanced workstation presentation and organisation
