BAMBOO ACCESS MATS

Our bamboo composite mats have been designed to overcome some of the natural limitations of timber and steel mats.

​

The panels in our design maximize on the inherent nexibility of bamboo, allowing them to bend on uneven ground. By incorporating new technology into traditional design, we were able to make our Bamboo Composite Mats stronger and less susceptible to breakage.
 

Engineering the mats out of bamboo composite allowed us to create a product that retains less than 10% water, compared to at least 30% moisture retention with traditional hardwood. The low moisture content and the superior strength of bamboo composite over more traditional material, has allowed us to keep the weight lower than comparable mats. This has resulted in significant logistic savings over the life span of the mat.
 

As our mats are produced from an engineered composite panel, our mats keep a consistent strength and are less susceptible to breakage. Traditional timber mats are more prone to breakage as timber boards will often have structural weakness in part of the board. Our strict quality control and tested production methods ensure that the quality of our mats is consistent. Bamboo has a tensile strength of 28,000 per square inch compared to 23,000 for steel. The bending strength has been tested at double the strength of solid oak.

 

Due to the superior strength of bamboo composite, the mats are especially suitable for steel tracked vehicles such as excavators.

​

Our typical Bamboo access mat is manufactured to 3900 x 2200 x 60mm (with fingers) and weighs 525kg, making them an excellent mat choice for transportation.

WHY
BAMBOO?

Bamboo is a grass and takes between 3 and 6 years to reach full
growth (hardwood forests take at least 50 years to reach full growth)

 

Bamboo has a tensile strength of 28,000 per square inch (steel is
23,000 per square inch)

 

Bamboo requires less energy to harvest and process than most
timber products

 

Bamboo generates 35% more oxygen than an equivalent area of
trees

 

Bamboo is more impervious to rot, fungus and insects
 

Bamboo is 20-30% lighter than traditional hardwood
