Crane mats are commonly used across numerous oil & gas, power, and refinery projects. Worksites in these industries and others often rely on heavy-duty equipment to get the job done. That heavy equipment needs safe site access mats designed to withstand extreme weights and the many challenges of working remotely or in challenging environments.
Most project managers consider bolted mats the best choice for heavy machinery and equipment. However, the experts at GFI Solutions know that we have better access solutions than traditional bolted mats. Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) Mats are an innovative access solution that is more affordable, higher quality, and longer-lasting than conventional bolted mats. Below we’ll cover the CLT difference and some of GFI Solutions’ turnkey services. Continue reading to learn more!
The CLT Difference
For most worksites, bolted timber mats are the traditional choice; however, they’re not your only option! Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) mats perform far and above traditional bolted mats. CLT mats are manufactured from eco-friendly materials like Southern Yellow Pine and environmentally friendly adhesive instead of bolts. This allows the CLT mats to be gapless, lightweight, and more durable than traditional bolted mats. Bolts in crane mats can create splinters, pressure points and may cross-contaminate your working environment. CLT crane mats have a smooth top to reduce tripping, potential damage to your equipment, and environmental cross-contamination. In addition, GFI Solutions’ CLT mats are stronger and more durable than traditional bolted mats, so they can better withstand heavy loads and equipment. GFI Solutions’ Site Safe CLT mats are the best option for any remote project or worksite. They can withstand harsh weather conditions, challenging terrain, and heavy equipment. This maximizes your return on investment as they have a longer lifespan, are more durable and are lighter in weight. When you need reliable crane mats, or other services related to access matting, GFI Solutions is here to help!
