Groundworks Protection Mats

Name: Groundworks Protection Mats
Brand: BKM

Key Features & Advantages

Create temporary roadways, access routes, work pads, and storage areas on active sites.

Minimize mud damage, surface rutting, and ground disturbance in repeated traffic areas.

Heavy-load positioning up to 120 & Suitable for repeated outdoor use.

Flexible designs help successfully lay on uneven or sloping ground.

Connector systems are available to link the mats into a larger work surface.

Hand holes are included to improve unloading, carrying, and deployment.

Applications

Access to the ground during groundwork and civil engineering operations.

Protection of the ground for plants, vehicles, and equipment used in construction works.

Trackways and work platforms can be constructed using several interconnected mats.

Storage facilities, pedestrian walkways, and temporary construction areas where ground damage is a concern.

Sloped or undulating terrain where matting needs to follow the ground contours more closely.

450 Mats for a 1,500 ft Temporary Road: How BKM Supported a Mississippi Riverbank Earthwork Project

The customer was working on a riverbank earthwork project near the Mississippi River. The job required the movement of about 300,000 cubic meters of soil. Dump trucks, excavators, forklifts, and other site vehicles had to move back and forth across soft riverbank ground every day. The original plan was to build a temporary haul road […]

Certified for Global Standards

Each batch undergoes thorough inspection on the shop floor. Raw material is tested upon arrival, as well as finished parts upon completion. Anything failing to conform to specifications is not shipped out.

ISO 9001 Quality Management

ISO 9001:2015 certification requires written processes, production control measures, and traceability of the process from initial raw material to finished part. More critically, ISO helps us maintain tolerances across multiple batches, rather than just in theory.

Food-Grade FDA Compliance

In cases of applications involving food production, only selected types of HDPE and UHMWPE materials which conform to FDA food-grade standards are used. These grades are usually utilized in cutting surfaces, guides, and wear parts.

RoHS Compliant Manufacturing

Materials comply with RoHS environmental regulations in terms of substance content restrictions. This is ensured by monitoring the components of the material, rather than the finished part.

Traceable Material Test Reports (MTR)

Material test reports available upon request include mechanical properties such as tensile strength and impact value, as well as wear information and dimensional checks.
