WHEN considerin­g access to and around mine sites, there is no better solution than one that can be used again and again.

Road Mode is the market leader for reusable temporary road and outrigger solutions designed to withstand steel track vehicles up to a weight of 120t.

Road Mode sales and marketing manager Gareth Walsh said the ground mats are perfect for allowing access and gaining traction to constructi­on sites for rubber and steel tracked type vehicles from cars, vans, JCB equipment, cranes, and various heavy goods vehicles.

“They are ideal for ground protection and pedestrian footpaths over soft or sensitive ground, sand, mud, turf, marshy areas at any event,” Mr Walsh said.

“Our products are made of High Density Polyethyle­ne (HDPE) using the Terra Firma master batch and will bend to suit the ground conditions.

“Our ground mats are durable, lightweigh­t, and extremely strong because they are engineered to provide ground protection and access over soft surfaces and will provide a firm support base and traction for numerous activities --saving heavy vehicles from getting stuck in mud, wet and marshy conditions.”

The Terra Firma master batch gives Road Mode products superior strength, flexibilit­y and lifespan in harsh conditions.

“The products will not warp, rot, split or crack, they will not absorb contaminan­ts, are non-conduction, easily cleaned and can be made to custom lengths,” Mr Walsh said.

“We can save you time and labour getting vehicles and equipment traversed over difficult terrain.

“Road Mode will also help sites avoid potential injuries to workers and equipment from excessive wear and damage due to operating on unstable ground conditions.”
