When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Terralam®
There’s nothing worse than losing valuable man-hours, money, and equipment to the harsh Canadian terrain. With weather that can turn on a dime, remote sites can become inaccessible overnight, leaving crews stranded and without the necessary equipment to keep things on time and on budget. Access and rig mats do away with these headaches by making sure you’ll always have a stable foundation to transport materials, as well as support heavy equipment. TerraLam®’s 500 series uses innovative CLT construction to create a product that stays strong under pressure and performs flawlessly time and time again.
What Are Clt Mats?
Wondering what makes CLT mats so unique compared to traditional bolted access mats? Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) mats are constructed using alternating perpendicular layers of wood that are then bonded with a special environmentally friendly adhesive for optimal strength and safety. This method of construction means that CLT mats flex with each load to distribute weight evenly as opposed to at bolt points, resulting in increased strength and longevity.
Key benefits of CLT mats include:
- High impact resistance and durability.
- Increased life span (3-5 times that of traditional mats).
- Glue lamination and wax sealed on all 4 edges of the mat make it less vulnerable to moisture and rot.
- Able to withstand the Canadian climate, all year-round.
- Solid matting top reduces tripping hazards, as well as the tired damage to vehicles.
- Lower shipping costs due to the lightweight nature of the mats (up to 60% more load capacity), and more.
