View product →Electrical utility company standardized on HDPE mats for off-road line maintenance after right-of-way damage claims.
An electrical utility maintaining 12,000 km of overhead transmission lines was facing an average of 40 right-of-way damage claims per year — landowners filing claims when boom trucks rutted soft ground crossing fields to reach poles.
Standard outfit per maintenance crew truck: 16 mats (4 × 8 ft × 1/2 inch HDPE) carried on a flat trailer. Crews lay 4 mats wide × 4 mats long to create a 16 × 32 ft work pad at each pole, plus a few mats as a path to the pole.
Right-of-way damage claims dropped from ~40/year to ~3/year. ROI on the mat fleet (~2,400 mats across 150 trucks) recovered in 18 months from avoided claim payouts.
