Looking to conquer the prairies and increase your revenue with your next big project? Need some assistance ensuring your site can safely and efficiently receive materials without costly delays or damaging your equipment? Alberta’s landscape presents project managers and crew members with a unique set of challenges that can be difficult to overcome without the right transport resources in place.

Stronger, Tougher, Better: Meet CLT Matting
Tired of encountering the same problems every time your bolted mats begin to deteriorate and fail? Looking for a long term solution you can count on to stand up to the toughest of jobs while also saving on shipping? Despite being a relatively new addition to the matting field, Cross-Laminated Timber, or “CLT” mats have quickly become the preferred choice amongst leaders in many heavy industries, including the oil & gas, construction, and petroleum fields. CLT mats weigh in at approximately 40% less than standard bolted mats and offer a life cycle that is 3-5 times the length, meaning that you stand to save both upfront on shipping (you can ship up to 25% more per load), as well as in the long term due to their durability. With the heavier duty models capable of handling rig and crane applications, CLT mats have become increasingly popular across job sites, and offer immense value that you can depend on.
The CLT Difference
Unlike traditional bolted mats, Cross Laminated Timber mats are created by gluing alternating perpendicular layers of wood together with an environmentally safe adhesive. This allows the mats to flex and evenly distribute weight throughout the entire mat with each load, reducing your chances of sudden failures, even under heavy applications.
