What are ground protection mats made of? 

Polyethylene road mats (also known as temporary road mats, construction site mats, or anti slip mats) are typically made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), with the following specific composition and characteristics:

1. Main materials
   -High density polyethylene (HDPE)
   -A lightweight but high-strength plastic that is corrosion-resistant and chemical resistant, suitable for short-term or medium low load temporary roads.
   -Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)
   -Higher strength, wear resistance, and impact resistance, suitable for heavy machinery or long-term use scenarios.
2. Additives and Enhancement Design
   -Anti slip texture: The surface is usually designed with raised patterns or anti slip particles to increase friction.
   -UV stabilizer: prevents UV degradation and extends outdoor service life.
   -Antifreeze/high-temperature resistant additives: adapted to extreme weather conditions.
   -Enhanced structure: Some products incorporate steel frames or grids internally to further enhance their load-bearing capacity.
3. Common uses
   -Temporary construction roads, activity areas, and muddy ground paving.
   -Protect lawns or fragile surfaces (such as sports events, wedding venues).
   -Military exercises and emergency response channels for disaster relief.
4. Advantages
   -Lightweight: easy to handle and install (modular splicing design).
   -Durable: corrosion-resistant, non absorbent, with a longer lifespan than wooden or metal pads.
   -Environmental Protection: Recyclable and partially made from recycled polyethylene.
