Back to School, Back to Basics – A Mats Review

Crane MatsWith school right around the corner, it’s important for students to have the right supplies to complete their work. The same can be said for any project that requires a mat, as having the correct one is imperative to the project’s success. As students gear up to get back to school, let’s do a pre-semester review are some of the mats we offer.

3 Ply Laminated Mats

These mats are available for sale and for rent in 12-, 14- and 16-foot lengths and are perfect for construction projects that require site protection and temporary roads.

Crane Mats

Where our laminated mats are good for normal construction projects, crane mats are for heavy duty jobs. Our crane mat inventory is available in numerous sizes ranging from 12 feet all the way up to 30 feet.

Custom Cut Mats/Timbers

As the name implies, these mats are custom cut by us for special construction projects such as bridges and tunnels. Whether you have a site with odd dimensions or need a custom solution for your job site, these customized mats are the perfect option to make movement of different vehicles and machinery easier.

Dragline/Digging Mats

Made with thick wood, dragline mats are great for construction projects that require you to protect the area you’re working in. Set these mats in any location where you need to move heavy machines or stage an excavator for an extended digging project.

Outrigging Pads

Much like our custom mats, our outrigging pads are custom cut for your project. What sets them apart is their multi-layer design, which helps keep machinery stable no matter where the construction is taking place.

Transition Mats

Our mats are thick to make them more durable and resilient, but this thickness can make getting vehicles on to them difficult in some situations. Transition mats are used to help make it easier for your machinery to move on and off mats, reducing the stress placed on the tires or treads and simplifying moving your equipment.

Pipeline Skids/Timbers

These mats are best suiting for pipeline construction – as the name implies. They are used to stabilize, elevate and rack new piping and help make the process of adding sections to a new line under construction simpler and more convenient.
