Anti-slip mats; increase safety and save costs

Anti-slip mats are indispensable when securing cargo. By using anti-slip mats, you increase the friction between the load and the carrier. Your cargo is less likely to slide and is better protected from damage. When you use an anti-slip mat in the right way, you increase the friction resistance, so you need fewer straps and reduce loading time. In addition, anti-slip mats are a lot cheaper than lashings. So when securing cargo, it is better to buy anti-slip matting than to use extra lashings.

Cutting costs with anti-slip matting

When using approved anti-slip mats, you can count on a coefficient of friction of 0.6. This means you need a lot less webbing to secure your load. This not only saves money, but also time. Because properly attaching straps can be quite time-consuming. In addition, anti-slip mats are also a lot cheaper to buy than straps.

"Transporteurs gebruiken structureel te veel spanbanden. Door antislipmatten toe te passen, kun je dat aantal flink terugbrengen. De grootste winst zit in de tijd die je per transport bespaart.”

Niels Bouwmeester - specialist ladingzekering

Forms of anti-slip

Various types of anti-slip are available for proper cargo securing.

Anti-slip matting in tile form

Tiled anti-slip mats are very suitable for use under pallets. They are very user-friendly, quick to store and take up little storage space.

Anti-slip mats on rolls

With the anti-slip mats on rolls, you can quickly under-mat the loading floor of an entire trailer.

Anti-slip plywood

Stop wood with anti-slip is a friction-increasing material for transporting prefab concrete blocks, loose pipes, pipe packs, steel carriers, concrete-steel mats and other goods that are not suitable for pallets. The stop wood also acts as a spacer when placing stacking forks or forks during loading and unloading.

Wear of anti-slip mats

You can use anti-slip mats frequently, but be aware that wear and tear causes a decrease in friction. It is therefore advisable to handle anti-slip material with care. When driving a forklift or pallet truck over the anti-slip mat, the material loses some of its resistance. This also happens when dirt or grease gets onto the anti-slip material. An anti-slip mat therefore only works optimally when securing loads if the loading floor and the load that will be placed on it are clean, dry and grease-free.
