UniMat® Crane Mat

Heavy-duty crane mat for reliable load spreading

UniMat® Crane Mat provides durable and stable ground support for crane, MEWP, and mobile plant outriggers, ensuring safe lifting operations on site. Designed as a long-life alternative to timber, these high-density polyethylene (HDPE) mats deliver exceptional load distribution and strength while resisting water, chemicals, and temperature extremes.

Engineered for heavy-duty applications, each mat is unbreakable under extreme loads and maintains performance in temperatures from –100 °C to +80 °C. The Safety Grip surface option enhances stability and prevents slippage under outrigger feet, while rope handles or fitted chains allow safe, easy positioning. With engraved load data and identification details, UniMat® Crane Mat supports compliance and traceability on busy worksites.

Lightweight compared to steel and impervious to rot or corrosion, UniMat® Crane Mat offers a sustainable, long-life solution for crane operations requiring dependable ground protection and load support.

Marlow Carnival 2017

Can I please express my thanks on behalf of everyone at Kier for the exceptional aptitude and attitude shown by one of your site teams who were engaged in a recent local community project. As with any town centre closure there were some ‘challenges’ thrown at the crew but their attitude and commitment to the safety of the children, parents and support groups was second to none. It’s lovely to be able to write this reference to your colleagues, please pass on my most sincere thanks.

Could I say a big thank you to yourselves and to all your crews which were on site at the A404 Resurfacing scheme last night. I have spoken to the Tarmac site supervisor from the Chieveley depot this morning who was very appreciative of how helpful and how good it was to work with the crew that was on site.
