The construction industry is currently experiencing a boom, with one major construction site following another, especially in urban areas. In addition to the neighboring residents, surrounding shops also suffer greatly from the significant emissions from such large-scale construction sites in the form of noise, pollution, but also high-frequency traffic from construction vehicles, as well as other disruptions caused by the closure of public roads or the erection of high construction fences, construction containers, and other building materials. Not every one of these natural characteristics of construction sites can be counteracted. With our s:tek high-performance ground protection mats However, at least some of these characteristics can be reduced to a minimum or even eliminated completely. As can be seen in the pictures of this customer project from a construction company, the s:tek ground protection mats to create a temporary work platform in the inner-city area.
Here comes a very obvious, preventive feature of the s:tek panels to wear. Soiling of the subfloor is noticeably reduced, and damage is virtually eliminated. Logically, the panels cannot prevent high-frequency traffic. Unfortunately, they cannot eliminate noise either, but they can reduce it somewhat, unlike the steel panels otherwise used.
However, the construction company benefits from a completely different characteristic of s:tek high-performance ground protection mats The panels are made of HDPE – a high-performance plastic that is flexible and therefore virtually indestructible.
When you look at the pictures of such a long-term construction site, it becomes clear that this feature can be invaluable.
Finally, one should perhaps remember that, precisely because of the high pollution potential that exists on construction sites, the profiling of s:tek delivers true added value. Construction debris, earth, clay, and other grime would quickly cause vehicles to lose the necessary grip on Steel road plates or existing ground. The 8 mm radius profile provides the necessary grip even in heavily soiled areas. In areas where work is more likely to be carried out on foot than by vehicle, the 3 mm profile is more appropriate.
