6 Benefits of Stainless SteelErgonomic Stands

Staple EquipmentErgonomic stands have become staple equipment in any food processing facility.

The differing heights of employees, mixed with the growing awareness of musculoskeletal disorders caused from stretching, twisting, overreaching, and repeated awkward movements, has made

ergonomic stands necessary to keep employees safe and accident reports (and costs!) down. A facility without ergonomic stands opens itself up to a greater risk of employee injuries and a greater risk of

shelling out thousands of dollars for those injuries.

Stainless Steel OptionA quick Google search of ergonomic stands will produce thousands of results - everything from

fiberglass platforms to aluminum to stainless steel. With so many material options, let alone size and style, how can you choose the best ergonomic stand for your plant?

While ergonomic stands made out of any other material may try to tout it's ability to compete, stainless steel ergonomic stands are the best option for sanitary design, easy cleaning, and durability.

Other materials just can't stand up like stainless steel.

To help you in your decision process, we've compiled 6 benefits of purchasing stainless steel ergonomic stands:
