ECM-30 General Site Matting
Designed specifically for general site and construction areas, with mixed pedestrian and medium haul trucks. Create your temporary mining or exploration camp site, arena and venue ground protection, parking or civil construction lay down areas. An all-weather surface with grip tread, fully reversible.
Compared to typical HDPE matting systems the ECM-30 outperforms at every level:- 232 kgs per unit; rapid installation, easy stacking. 14% stronger; independently tested to 4,468kN/m2. 50% thinner; than typical HDPE high performance matting. 21% lighter (per m2); than typical HDPE high performance matting.
With ECM-30 you can load out 104 units (24.2T) per 20ft container, that’s a massive 546m2 of quick connect, fully interlocking, high performance matting per container, compare that to your current trucking or mobilization costs.

How the ECM-30 Can Boost Your Performance
Operational & Cost Efficiency
The ECM-30 is engineered to reduce project costs via logistics, reliability and installation speed.
- Reduce logistics costs through more usable coverage per container than HDPE
- Rapid Connection, only 1 x 4-way steel quick-lock connector per mat
- Streamlined Deployment, with dedicated lifting points, don’t truck dunnage
- Repairable On-site, the modular design facilitates easy individual beam replacement
- High load capacity: 4,468 kN/m² ensures premium stability for your working platform.
Sustainable Matting
The ECM-30 is manufactured from Flex Weave Bamboo, our process uses bamboo from certified plantations, our manufacturing process achieves superior strength and resilience.
- Harvested from sustainably sourced bamboo plantations
- Resistant to rot, termites and weathering
- Recyclable at end-of-life, chipped and reused as organic soil mulch
- Carbon-efficient, lower emissions than timber, HDPE matting, or concrete alternatives
- Resistant to fire, does not burn.
With proper maintenance, the ECM-30 delivers over 15 years of service, making it the ideal solution for companies seeking long-term, low-impact site access with verified ESG performance.
