The Best Anti-fatigue Mats for different Work Environments
Anti-fatigue matting is a crucial investment for any workplace that requires employees to stand or walk for extended periods of time. Standing for extended periods of time on hard surfaces like concrete or tile can lead to discomfort, fatigue, and even long-term health problems. Anti-fatigue mats provide a cushioned surface that reduces the pressure on joints and muscles, improving employee comfort, reducing fatigue, and increasing productivity. However, not all anti-fatigue mats are created equal, and different work environments may require different types of mats to achieve the best results. Here are some of our anti-fatigue mats suited for different work environments: Industrial Workshops and FactoriesFor heavy-duty environments such as industrial workshops and factories, anti-fatigue mats need to be durable, long-lasting, and slip resistant. • Engineers MatThis product is a Heavy-Duty Anti-Fatigue matting that comes equipped with holes to aid in drainage. The matting features extra-large holes that can effectively drain fluids and small debris. It is particularly well-suited for use in workshops, especially in front of machinery and welding bays. This matting is also highly resistant to most chemicals. While the standard mat does not come with ramps, the mat is also available in Yellow Ramped edges. • Ergo StanceThis rubber mat is specifically moulded to offer exceptional anti-fatigue properties. Its top surface is flexible and domed, providing a gentle massage to the feet. This design offers support when working in a stationary position for extended periods of time, reducing leg and back fatigue.

A go-to-guide to pick the right Tactiles & Stair Nosing Contractor for your construction projects!
Authored by: Luke Way Finding the ideal partner to work with as a contractor to complete the project in a smooth and timely manner is crucial. Having worked on hundreds of projects throughout the last couple of years as a contractor for building safety products, we understand the criteria that are important for any project manager to finalize a contractor for tactile indicators and stair nosing keeping public safety in mind. We’ve therefore put together a checklist that every project manager can follow to evaluate if they are shortlisting the right contractor for a job. What is the Lead Time offered? Product lead times play a very important role in the timely completion of any project. Contractors who import their products generally have higher lead times. It is therefore best to choose a contractor that manufactures their tactiles and stair nosing locally so that lead times are efficient & product quality is maintained. Do they offer on-site Luminance Testing? When installing tactile indications and stair nosing, it is essential to preserve luminance contrasts for each product. In order to maintain proper luminance contrast, a contractor should examine specified items against specific substrates during the tendering process. They should also be able to offer on-site luminance testing prior to installation to guarantee that AS1428.1-2009 standards are upheld. Are they following OH&S practices? Safety is of the highest importance on any construction site. It is important that the contractor is constantly maintaining and revising their Safe Work Method Statements & Site Safety Management Plans along with training their employees/installers on safe work practices. Are they able to provide valuable insights? A contractor that has put the effort in to provide a mark-up and has provided insight and expertise into the placement and layout of tactile indicators and stair nosing in accordance with AS1428.1-2009 should always be considered as you want items to be installed to code to save delays and re-work. With 28 years of expertise in the building safety products market and 30 years working on various projects in the construction industry with some of the most well-known builders, Sterling Supplies is the ideal choice for your next project.

A WALKTHROUGH OF OUR PROJECTS FROM 2022
It’s nearly that time of the year again where we get a chance to celebrate the year we have finished. As we approach 2022, we would like to thank all of you for your support through 2022. We were part of many projects that we are proud of this year, and we would love to share some of these with you. 1) Richmond Quarter About the Project: Richmond Quarter is a mixed-use development, with the Main Works consisting of a Basement and Podium Level Car Park, 7400sqm of Ground Floor Retail, 3100 sqm of Commercial Office and 368 ‘Build to Rent’ Apartments across five buildings. Sterling Supplies worked with Hacer Group for the supply and install of below products for the project. Products Used: • Stainless Steel Individual Tactile Indicators • Natural Anodized Appular Carborundum Stair Nosing • Polyethylene Wheel Stop • Ultimate Wheel Stop • Yellow Powder Coated Surface Mounted Bollard • Galvanized Hoop Bike Rack • Black Powder Coated Wall Mounted Bike Rack • Galvanized Corner Guards • Convex Mirror • Height Restriction Bar 2) Sydney Football Stadium About the Project: Our Client John Holland partnered with the NSW government to deliver the landmark Sydney Football Stadium now known as Allianz Stadium. The NSW Government redeveloped it into a modern, world-class venue to ensure Sydney has a sporting and entertainment precinct of an international standard and that NSW remains the number one choice for sporting and entertainment events. Sterling Supplies played a significant role in this project to ensure stair safety with an appropriate stair nosing type that was customized for the stadium. Unisearch expert opinion services assessed the provision of the appropriate nosing type to facilitate safe descent of all stairs and stepped aisles throughout the project. Our Arcane clear anodised stair nosing with black insert were customized considering findings from this research and were made to provide safe passage of occupants even in scenarios such as fatigue, fear of falling, induced vertigo, and other VHI factors. These made them safe for foot placement under all conditions while providing additional stability to offsets slipping and missteps. As a result, patrons are now able to identify the stairs as an accessway and are then able to climb and descend each stairway safely as all the treads and flights are clearly visible clearly and detectable for safe foot placement and surface stability to avoid falling. It was indeed a great honour to be a part of this new era for sport and entertainment in Australia. 3) Woolworths Mernda About the Project: One of our recently complemented projects, experience Woolworths’ new store at Mernda Town Centre, with an expanded fresh food experience, convenient shopping options & our work on safety compliance with the supply and install of tactile indicators and stair nosing.

What is LRV and why is it important to choose the right tactile indicators & stair nosing?
Light Reflectance value measures the percentage of light a colour reflects. A colour’s Light Reflectance Value (LRV) measures the amount of visible and operational light that reflects from (or absorbs into) a surface. This value can range from 0-100%, where 0 is maximum absorption or reflection and 100 is the least of it. The reason a LRV Contrast is required is to improve the accessibility of vision impaired persons in public spaces and buildings. Most people who have vision impairment have some vision, however the vision loss is severe enough. A LRV Contrast enhances the safety, dignity, and independence of these persons as they move through the public environment by enabling them to identify differences in surfaces. Knowing the reflectance value of your substrate and products for your project also ensures that compliance to the Australian Building Code is achieved and gives the project that special, optimal look it deserves. The right colours can elevate your project to another level while the wrong ones can do injustice to it, or worse still, prevent a building from being able to open as the project is not up to code. Hence knowing the reflectance value of specified products is important to, architects, engineers, builders, contractors and basically everybody associated with building projects. There must be sufficient difference in the reflectance value of Building Elements to help provide a safe and accessible path for the vision impaired. The following LRV percentage difference is required for different products: • Integrated Tactile Indicators – 30% difference to substrate • Discrete Tactile Indicators – 45% difference to substrate • Composite Tactile Indicators – 60% difference to substrate • Stair Nosing – 30% difference to substrate Hence not only using the correct product but also using it in the right colour is important. Sterling Supplies provides onsite luminance testing to all substrates before installation, as well as compliance certificates for all products. Do you need guidance with choosing the right tactile indicators to suit your project? Does your public space need a stair nosing to give it that perfect look along with keeping safety compliance in check? Then look no more, get in touch with us for some expert advice. Feel free to ask for a sample and ye shall receive it!

P.S.: If you are a Project Manager, Architect, Contract Administrator or Site Manager you should definitely give it a read. 1) Trick: Destroying a project's feature staircase because the tread height was exceeded by the installation of stair nosing. Treat: In order to ensure that the stair has been constructed to handle stair nosing and won't raise the riser height above the maximum height permitted by the Building Code, we pay close attention to the stair detail drawings while estimating. 2) Trick: Building Certifier highlights incorrect LRV on tactiles one day before site completion causing removal of tactiles & damage to tiles beyond repair. Treat: We understand that TGSI's need to meet the minimum luminance contrast requirements. Sterling Supplies therefore provides onsite luminance testing to help confirm compliance when required, apart from providing LRV test certificates for products. 3) Trick: Due to sizing concerns and lengthy lead times, entrance mats being duplicated at additional cost, significantly delaying the project. Treat: Our smart, easy and dynamic aluminium entrance matting Duratred® Ezy is designed to be supplied in slat forms in standard lengths which can be cut to any size.

Buyers guide for selecting the right Tactile Indicators!
TGSIs, or tactile ground surface indicators, are a requirement for any new construction or renovation in a public space that give vision-impaired pedestrians an early warning of potential dangers in their path. The raised studs and bars on the ground are set up in a way that leads people to certain places in or warns them of hazards such as stairs, ramps, overhead hazards, platforms, etc. People who are vision impaired can find their way by feeling changes in texture with their feet or by using a mobility aid. Tactile indicators are therefore GST exempt as they assist the orientation of people with vision impairment. Our tactile indicators come in two forms - individual Tactiles & integrated Tactiles. They are available in a variety of colours, materials & dimensions to offer highest level of slip resistance to minimize the risk of slip and falls. All our Tactile Indicators also comply to the AS/NZS 1428.4.1-2009 standards. It is important to choose if your project needs individual or integrated Tactile indicators & below listed are a few factors to help determine that. A) Individual Tactile Indicators: AestheticThe aesthetics of a project are one of the most important factors in architecture. Our individual tactile indicators are available in stainless steel, brass, and polymeric finishes. They are the perfect choice to give your project an architecturally enhanced appearance. Individual Tactiles can be installed in concrete, stone, ceramic, porcelain tiles and asphalt. DurabilityIt is very important that the type of tactile indicators you install withstand constant foot traffic, heavy loads and other natural elements like wind, rain, and UV. These individual Tactiles are high in quality ensuring they don’t degrade over time & last long. B) Integrated Tactile Indicators: SustainabilityOne of the product offerings in the integrated Tactile indicators is the 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗰® 𝗘𝗰𝗼 𝗧𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗲 range which is manufactured in Australia using Recycled PET bottles and other PET products. Cleverly designed using an ultra-UV stabilized resin, they are guaranteed to last a minimum of 5 years without fading. The specially developed recycled plastic material makes it a great sustainable choice that will last long even in the heaviest pedestrian traffic areas. EconomicalThe Tactile Tiles / Plates are one of the most economical options available, that offer highest level of safety in a cost-effective manner in comparison to individual Tactiles. Easy InstallationThe right amount of space must be left between each unit when installing Tactiles. Inconsistent spacing can lead to confusion or, worse, accidents.
