Track mats, also known as ground protection mats or bog mats, offer a lightweight, easy-to-handle solution for protecting turf and sensitive ground from rubber-tyred or rubber-tracked vehicles up to 30 tonnes. Chemically inert and water-resistant, they’re ideal for reducing environmental impact and avoiding costly site restoration.
The mats are lightweight yet strong, making them easy to install and reposition as your project progresses. Their textured surface delivers excellent grip, reducing the risk of slips, trips and bogging equipment in wet or muddy conditions.
At Coates, we make it easy to hire the right number of track mats for your site. Our team can advise on the best layout to suit your ground conditions, deliver mats directly to the site and arrange for fast pickup once you’re done. With flexible hire terms, competitive rates and nationwide availability, Coates ensures you can keep your project in check.
Heavy duty ground protection mats are engineered to handle large loads. Each mat is designed to spread weight across a larger surface area, allowing them to support vehicles, plant and machinery weighing several tonnes, depending on ground conditions. On firm, stable ground, bog mats can accommodate everything from light utility vehicles through to heavy trucks and earthmoving equipment.
Yes. Track mats are designed to create safe, stable surfaces for both vehicles and pedestrians. Their durable construction spreads weight to prevent vehicles and machinery from sinking into soft ground, while the textured, non-slip surface provides secure footing for workers and event attendees. The versatility makes bog mat hire ideal for everything from forming temporary roadways and access tracks for heavy equipment to creating walkways and staging areas for events and festivals.
Yes. These ground protection mats are specifically designed to protect soft and sensitive surfaces. By spreading the weight of vehicles, equipment or foot traffic across a larger area, they reduce ground pressure and help prevent ruts, bogging or long-term damage, and allow pedestrians to move safely without sinking or slipping. While some minor surface marking is possible with very heavy loads, trak mats are one of the most effective ways to maintain ground integrity.
