About Us

GFI has a large fleet of cross laminated timber (CLT) mats for rent with full installation crews along with equipment and trucks to offer a full turn key solution for any matting project big or small. . We only rent CLT ( Cross Laminated TImber) mats.
Cross-Laminated Timber is the Most Advanced Building Material in the World and has been called “plywood on steroids”
It was introduced in the mid 1990’s and is now replacing concrete and steel for construction of commercial buildings.
Normal wood is strong in the direction of the grain but weak in the cross direction. CLT’s perpendicular layers make it strong in two directions.
