We set up tests to compare our TerraLam CLT site access mats to the competition (including bolted access mats, 8″ timber mats, and composite mats) to show how TerraLam stacks against each one in areas of efficiency, safety, and cost savings. Using similar quality used mats for each test, we put them through examples of real-world situations you might find on a construction site.
See how long it takes to unload a stack of TerraLam 308 and a stack of 3-ply bolted mats.
See how many TerraLam 308 and 3-ply bolted mats can be carried by a wheel loader.
Measure how far each load of TerraLams covers compared to 3-ply bolted mats.
Feel the ride quality difference when driving over TerraLam, bolted, and timber mats.
Check out the difference between cleaning a TerraLam vs a bolted mat.
Stack up the TerraLam 308 against the 3-ply bolted and see which is stronger.
Compare the coverage a truckload of TerraLam 508s gets compared to 8″ timber.
Measure the distance a 20,000lb load of TerraLam 508s gets compared to 8″ timber.
Walk the right-of-way and see how each mat surface performs.
Count the steps required to break down a timber mat compared to a TerraLam 508 at end-of-life.
Compare the install effort and coverage when TerraLam 308 gets laid down next to composite.
Ever wondered what makes TerraLam CLT mats so unique? Our A Simple Piece of Wood series takes you behind the scenes, breaking down the innovative engineering and sustainable practices that go into creating our mats. From raw materials to the final product, learn how a simple piece of wood becomes a high-performance solution for construction and infrastructure projects.
Take an in-depth look at TerraLam as you’ve probably never seen an access mat before.
Matting is a simple concept that becomes highly complex when put practice. Through decades of experience in matting and site access, TerraLam was developed as an excellent alternative to many of the traditional mat types currently in the industry.
