Protecting Tree Roots with Ground Protection Mats
Forestry and land management projects often involve working near trees where root systems are vulnerable. Heavy equipment and repeated traffic can cause lasting damage to roots and soil structure. GroundGuards mats spread the load, prevent compaction, and protect roots while still allowing safe access for vehicles and crews.
Reliable Access Across Challenging Terrain
From forest tracks to mountainous ground, mats deliver safe, all-weather access. Crews can move vehicles and equipment without damaging soil or sensitive habitats, ensuring projects remain compliant and efficient.
Prevent Lasting Environmental Impact
Mats help reduce ground disturbance, limit soil erosion, and prevent costly remediation. By safeguarding tree roots, wetlands, and habitats, they ensure long-term environmental care and cost savings.
Safe, Productive Operations for All Crews
Defined routes and stable work platforms improve efficiency and protect workers from slips, trips, and equipment hazards, creating safer and more productive job sites.
