Why you need ground protection mats

Why you need ground protection mats

As the weather gets both colder and wetter, construction sites, events and other outdoor works areas struggle through the winter months. Muddy or frost ground makes for tough working conditions which can be more than just a nuisance. Slow work means delayed projects and wasted costs, not to mention the costs and dangers to pedestrians, workers and machinery in these conditions. Fortunately, there is a solution to some of these issues. Ground protection mats can make worksites safer and easier to access to help work continue as normal.

The benefits of ground protection mats

Ground protection mats can be used in a variety of environments including outdoor events and construction sites as well as other outdoor environments that may see heavy foot traffic or even machinery over uneven ground like grassy areas. They can be used as temporary paths and roadways as well as to create a large working area including car parks. If you’re carrying out a project on grass or other uneven ground, then take a look at these benefits of using ground protection mats to see if they could be a solution for you.



Take on tough conditions

The primary purpose of ground protection mats made of HDPE sheets to make tough ground conditions accessible. Whether you need to provide pedestrian access or access to heavy machinery, ground protection mats can ensure that anyone can walk over tough ground conditions with ease. Heavy vehicle and foot-traffic areas in particular need additional protection to stop problems arising as the constant traffic can churn up soft ground and make conditions worse over time.

Keep projects on schedule

Whether you trying to manage crowd flow to keep your event running smoothly or have a deadline on a construction site, it’s important to keep projects running on time for customers, clients and more. Providing clear access in these areas is therefore critical. Machinery getting stuck in muddy ground or slow traffic flow due to slippery or dangerous ground conditions can significantly impact the organisation and schedule of projects.

In winter months during harsher weather conditions, this is even more important as there may long periods that workers can’t continue in, so one delay could lead into a longer period of rain and a project stand-still. Ground protection mats can ensure that work can be carried out in tough conditions and enables both workers and machines to access sites with relative ease to make the most of workable weather.



Protect the ground and machinery

It goes without saying that ground conditions and the environment should be protected as much as possible especially today, but there are also often strict stipulations about the condition works and events sites should be left on completion. Customers and land owners need these areas to remain in good condition afterwards, whether it’s keeping the area around a residential site in good order or protecting fields as much as possible during an event.

What You Need To Know About Ear Plugs and Shooting Muffs What is Ear Protection in PPE? Anyone in the vicinity of gunfire needs hearing protection, so  ear plugs  and/or  ear muffs  are some of the most essential pieces of safety gear that you can have when you’re going shooting. Shooting ear protection (often called “ear pro”) is necessary for everyone on the range, including shooters and bystanders. This is also true for hunters in the field.

Hearing damage can occur in as little as one shot, and the effects are cumulative over time with repeated ...

What are Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Plastics?

图片
Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) plastics  refer to plastic materials that have been previously used by consumers and then collected, processed, and repurposed to create new products. Unlike pre-consumer recycled plastics, which are recycled during the manufacturing process before reaching the consumer, PCR plastics come from items that consumers have used and discarded. Here's a breakdown of key points related to Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) plastics: Collection Process: PCR plastics  are collected from various sources, including household recycling bins, collection centers, and waste management facilities. The plastics collected can include bottles, containers, packaging, and other items that consumers have disposed of. Sorting and Processing: After collection, the  recycled plastics  go through a sorting and processing phase.
