Protection mats are portable mats used as a temporary roadway over the uneven roadways, soft fields, or hard surfaces. These mats avoid the fracture or any damage produced due to heavy machinery on the surface of grass or garden. Medium duty, heavy duty, and extreme heavy duty protective mats are available for a variety of loads. They are weatherproof, long-lasting, and reusable. Protection mats act as temporary highways and platforms, ensuring the safe operation and transportation of employees and equipment. For safe and efficient operations, they are commonly utilized at construction sites and resource-based activities such as drilling rigs and mining. They are popular in gyms where heavy weightlifting is practiced.
