Ground protection mats are durable, non-slip surfaces designed to protect the ground from damage due to heavy machinery, foot traffic, or environmental conditions. While the traditional mats are made from high-density-polyethylene (HDPE), Guardian Composites’ new TurfGuard mats are made from high-molecular-weight polyethylene (HMWPE), the strongest and most durable resin, thereby creating the industry’s strongest and most durable (4’x8’x0.5”) access mat.
