Core Cushion: Load Capacity Up to 1500 N/cm²

Q: How often should Core Cushions be replaced in industrial settings?

With normal use, Core Cushions typically last 3-5 years. Replacement is recommended when visible compression deformation exceeds 15% or surface wear compromises safety features.

Q: Can Core Cushions be used in wet or oily environments?

Yes, when specified with oil-resistant TPU encapsulation. Standard versions are suitable for dry environments only.

Component Specifications

Definition

The Core Cushion is a multi-layered structural component integrated into ergonomic floor matting systems. It consists of a high-density foam core encapsulated within a durable outer shell, engineered to absorb impact, distribute weight evenly, and provide continuous support during prolonged standing. This component reduces musculoskeletal stress by minimizing pressure points and promoting subtle micro-movements that enhance blood circulation.

Working Principle

The Core Cushion operates on viscoelastic energy absorption principles. When subjected to compressive forces from standing or walking, the foam core deforms to dissipate kinetic energy, then slowly returns to its original shape. This creates a dynamic surface that reduces static loading on joints and muscles while maintaining stability.

Materials

High-density polyurethane foam (density: 45-65 kg/m³), encapsulated in nitrile rubber or thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) coating (thickness: 2-4 mm). Optional antimicrobial additives for hygiene.
