Why polyethylene ground protection mats?
Plywood is the most widely utilized material for turf protection, but using plywood presents a number of drawbacks. Our PE mats are engineered specifically for job site safety and efficiency.
Load Distribution, Traction, and Safety
Polyethylene mats help prevent job site accidents: they are designed to properly distribute loads up to 120 tons without fail and their non-slip diamond pattern surface provides better traction, creating a safer work environment for everyone.
Lightweight & Moisture Resistant
Plywood sheets absorb a lot of moisture, making them heavy, slippery, difficult to transport, and susceptible to mold and rot. PE ground protection mats are easy to move, waterproof, and resistant to industrial fluids and grime.
Durable & Long-Lasting
Not only are our PE ground protection mats UV/weather resistant and easy to clean, they also boast excellent tensile strength and impact resistance, lasting a lot longer than wood alternatives--up to 10+ years! How many plywood mats would you need over the next decade?
Sustainable
Our mats are made from a custom blend of 100% virgin plastic resins that can be used over and over again, so you’ll avoid throwing away plywood, and that saves trees...who doesn’t want to save trees?
Versatile
Cope's PE mats can be utilized in a variety of spaces, including construction sites, watersheds, pipelines, cemeteries, oil fields, public works, parks, driveways, fields/stadiums, botanical gardens, event centers, fairgrounds, temporary roads, and parking lots.
