Scout Mat for Temporary Access & Ground Protection to construction sites.
The Scout Mat has been manufactured from High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) for durability with long 10 years lifespan for construction projects and is non-conductive. It is configured with a raised pattern on the top side for vehicle traction and mud dispersal, and non-slip tread bottom surface for pedestrians.
Developed for medium and heavy-duty projects, the Scout Mat performs for rutting prevention, weight distribution, turf protection and a multitude of other construction applications and can be used with a variety of equipment such as rubber-tyred vehicles, excavators, heavy machinery, cranes and drilling rigs!
It is also made with non-toxic and chemically inactive materials for environmental concern, reducing the chance of damaging existing establishment and saving corporations money in fines and penalties. The Standard colour is tan, black and other colours are also available, and branding can be provided upon request at an additional cost.
Need to knows
We advise not to use Steel Tracked vehicles with any composite mats unless pre-authorised and agreed beforehand, traversing and aggressive movement on the mats may cause damage to them and the connectors and this will be the sole responsibility of the customer and user of the mats. When assessing ground conditions on site we advise seeking professional engineering guidance if there is any doubt. It is the users responsibility to assess the load-bearing capacity of the ground, and to only operate vehicles within the weight that the ground is capable of safely supporting.
A site limit must be adhered to when using this product.
