Frequently Asked Questions

HOW DOES THE CONSTRUCTION OF SITESAFE™ CLT MATS MAKE THEM MORE DURABLE?

Mat strength lies in its ability to transfer weight through the mat into the surface below. Bolted mats only transfer load at the location of the mechanical fasteners. Adhered CLT mats transfer the load through every available square foot. Additionally, the adhesive provides a moisture barrier at each layer, protecting the mat from eventual rot and decay.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT THAT SITESAFE™ CLT ACCESS MATS IS AN ENGINEERED PRODUCT?

Bolted access mats and traditional timber mats are made with a variety of mixed hardwoods and softwoods, without consideration for lumber grade — resulting in inconsistency across mats. With an engineered product, you can be assured that every mat delivered will perform to your specifications.

WE NEED MATS THAT CONNECT; IS THAT POSSIBLE WITH SITESAFE™ CLT ACCESS MATS?

SiteSafe™ CLT access mats can be fitted with interconnecting fingers that work in the same manner as traditional bolted access mats.

WHAT SIZES ARE AVAILABLE?

Currently, SiteSafe™ CLT access mats are available in 3, 5, and 7-ply construction

SiteSafe™ 300 CLT access mat 3-ply – 8′ x 14′
SiteSafe™ 500 CLT access mat 5-ply – 8′ x 16′
SiteSafe™ 700 CLT access mat 7-ply- 8′ x 16′

ARE SITESAFE™ CLT MATS SAFE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, INCLUDING WETLANDS?

Yes, in fact they are superior in promoting environmental stewardship. The adhesive becomes chemically inactive prior to leaving the facility, presenting no harm to the environment. (The metals in bolted mats oxidize, leaching contaminants into the ground and creating disposal difficulties.)

The raw materials in SiteSafe™ CLT access mats are farmed in approximately 20 years, where the hardwood species used in bolted mats can take 80-100 years to regrow.

Additionally, the solid surface and adhesive barriers between layers don’t allow invasive species to embed themselves into the mats like with traditional mats.

HOW WILL SITESAFE™ CLT ACCESS MATS PERFORM IN EXTREME OR LESS-THAN-IDEAL CONDITIONS?

SiteSafe™ CLT access mats have been tested successfully in temperatures as low as -70°F and as high as 150°F. While all wooden mats can be slippery in wet, muddy, and icy conditions, the solid top of SiteSafe™ CLT access mats makes removing mud, snow, or ice much easier. Once SiteSafe™ CLT access mats are traveled on, they become well-seasoned, mitigating slickness in challenging conditions.

CAN A SITESAFE™ CLT ACCESS MAT BE REPAIRED, OR DOES IT NEED TO BE DISPOSED OF ONCE DAMAGED?

Since SiteSafe™ CLT access mats are a solid block of wood, necessary repairs can be done easily and are less expensive than with bolted access mats. Repairs to bolted mats often require removing rusted or bent bolts and fragmented boards. Damaged SiteSafe™ CLT access mats are safer on the jobsite than a damaged bolted mat, as a damaged CLT mat does not expose crews to puncture injuries or equipment damage from broken protruding bolts.

IS IT BEST TO RENT, LEASE, OR BUY SITESAFE™ CLT ACCESS MATS?

GFI prides itself in creating long-term relationships, not maximizing transactions. A GFI expert will review your project and work with you to determine an optimal solution for your business.

WILL THE SITESAFE™ CLT ACCESS MATS DELAMINATE OR FALL APART?

SiteSafe™ CLT access mats are constructed with rapid-growth southern yellow pine #2 grade kiln-dried lumber, along with a moisture-activated polyurethane adhesive. The wood’s existing water helps cure the adhesive, creating an exceptional bond. Independent laboratories, including the USDA Forest Products Laboratory, San Diego State University, and Henkel Adhesives, have validated the strength and durability of SiteSafe™ CLT products.
