Key Benefits of 6 mm Mats

  • Extra-thick 6 mm profile provides maximum friction and cushioning for extreme loads
  • Helps prevent dangerous sliding and rotation of dense freight during rail impacts and hard braking
  • Can significantly reduce or replace heavy wood blocking & bracing, cutting labor and floor damage
  • Performs reliably in wet and dry conditions when surfaces are kept clean
  • High recycled content supports sustainability initiatives while remaining reusable and fully recyclable

Typical Applications

  • Steel coils & heavy metal products — primary use case for 6 mm friction mats
  • High-density construction materials — bricks, pavers, blocks, and similar freight
  • Industrial machinery and fabricated components — helps stabilize high-value loads
  • Palletized case goods with high weight per pallet — added grip and shock absorption
  • Cross-modal and long-haul shipments where impact loads and vibration are more severe
