Why Switch to CLT Access Mats?
Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) access mats are an asset to any project site, especially for areas where heavy machinery and equipment are used. CLT access mats are manufactured to improve upon some of the best features of traditional bolted mats. CLT mats are made using alternating perpendicular pinewood layers bonded with a unique eco-friendly adhesive. The special adhesive allows the access mats to flex under pressure and distribute weight evenly across the entire mat. That results in an access mat with a 3-5 times longer lifespan than traditional bolted mats. Making the switch to CLT access mats can enhance your worksite with additional benefits such as the following:
- Ability to withstand extreme environmental conditions
- Repels moisture, rot, and decay
- Environmental safe
- Interlocking capabilities
- Gap-less, solid mat top reduces tripping hazards and more!
GFI Solutions’ offering of TerraLam CLT mats has many benefits for various industries here in Alberta. So if you’re working in the oil and gas, or the renewable energy sector, CLT mats can assist you in ensuring your site is safe and accessible.
Stay on Budget
CLT mats are constructed from Southern Yellow Pine which is significantly lighter in weight. CLT mats are two-thirds the weight of traditional bolted mats, which means you can save up to 60% on transportation costs. Per load, you’re able to fit up to 72 CLT mats. More mats per load mean delivery is fast and cost-effective. At GFI Solutions, our team will ensure your project has reliable and safe access mats. We offer 24/7 support, so our team can still assist if your project is working in a remote location!
