Our Azobe wedges are a popular choice to go alongside our hardwood mats. Also known as ramps, these are mainly used in the crane industry, but can used for any machinery needing to safely mount onto our 200mm thick mats.

Common uses for our wedges:
✅ RoRo (Roll-On/Roll-Off) Operations
✅ All-Terrain Outrigger levelling on steep ground
✅ Crawler Crane approach - no more compacted groundwork needed

​

The combination of strength, durability, natural resistance, and sustainability, has given Azobe global recognition for being the first choice material for crane mats.  Azobe is incredibly dense, and has a high resistance to wear, abrasion, and impact. These qualities make it ideal for supporting heavy loads and enduring rigorous conditions of construction sites.

​

Our Azobe supply comes from West Africa, where we source it from specially selected sawmills that adhere to sustainable forest management principles. This includes maintaining a rotation period of 30 years based on a carefully documented forest management plan, were all of our wood is TLV legally certified.
