This ground protection mat is trusted for its strength, longevity, and ease of use. It outperforms timber and temporary plywood by offering a splinter-free, maintenance-free alternative. Widely used in infrastructure works, festival sites, and utility access zones, its anti-slip profile maintains safe traction across a variety of wet and dry terrain. The mat is particularly effective in temporary roadways and high-footfall pedestrian zones. It reduces site clean-up costs and complies with contractor safety policies. Designed to endure heavy machinery and footfall without structural degradation, it is a practical long-term solution for ground protection across the UK’s toughest sites.
