Vehicle Ground Protection Mats from HERMEQ provide a cost-effective, high-performance solution for projects requiring temporary access over soft or vulnerable terrain. Each 8ft x 4ft track mat is manufactured from 100% recycled polyethylene and supports over 55 tons of load, depending on conditions. This makes them ideal for plant access, site vehicles, or event infrastructure on grass, sand, or soil.
These ground protection mats feature dual-surface traction—one with a rugged grip pattern for vehicles, the other a more subtle, non-slip pedestrian finish. This enhances safety for both machine operators and foot traffic. The mats are fitted with six integrated hand holes to aid manual lifting and streamline layout without mechanical handling.
- Supports Over 55 Tons - Perfect for cranes, excavators, and site logistics vehicles.
- Dual-Sided Grip - One side for tires, the other for pedestrian-safe access.
- Recycled Polyethylene Core - Built to last, fully recyclable, and eco-conscious.
- Multiple Joining Methods - Choose steel connectors or cable ties for your layout.
- Manual Handling Friendly - Integrated grip holes make each mat easy to move.
These track mats are highly effective in projects where permanent infrastructure is unavailable or unsuitable. They are widely used in groundwork, public utilities, and landscaping, where stable access is required without damaging the ground. The modular format supports roads, platforms, or parking zones.
By preventing rutting and slippage, these mats help avoid downtime and damage to vehicles and surfaces. Each mat's flexible yet robust structure adapts to uneven ground, reducing trip risks and maintaining even load distribution under stress. When used with our hand-hole-compatible steel connectors, the mats form a secure access system in minutes.
HERMEQ stocks a wide range of Ground Protection, Steel Road Plates, Vehicle Access Mats, and Foot Ramps & Trench Covers that meet all required safety specifications and regulations.
