April showers may bring May flowers, but they also bring soupy soil and damp ground. As we navigate the rainy season late this winter and into spring, make sure you have the tools and accessories you need to protect the turf you’re working on and make jobs easier for your crews. Below, take a look at the tools and accessories Altec Supply recommends you keep on hand, including Altec Supply’s turf mats.
Turf Protection Mat
These turf protection mats have been designed to stand out from the competition—and not just because of their unique color. Lightweight and durable, the 4×8 ft mats are designed with layered high-density polyethylene and weigh in at only 56 pounds, while still being rated for 160,000 pounds. That’s more than 30% lighter than competing mats of similar sizes or comparable mats on the market and just as strong. Turf mats also come in a 3×8 size that weighs 42 pounds while maintaining its 160,000-pound rating.
The mats are a highly visible yellow color and feature two ergonomic handles on all four sides, giving you the industry’s safest, lightest, easy-to-move mats. Mats are in stock and ready to ship and are offered individually or in packs of 10.
