In today’s competitive market for construction and infrastructure projects, it is crucial to have access to products that enhance both efficiency and safety. We offer a range of innovative products designed to help contractors perform work in vulnerable and hard-to-reach areas without damaging or destroying the underlying surface. All the products are sustainable in terms of recycling, reuse, and minimal environmental impact. Here is a closer look at four of the most popular products: Signaroad, Megadeck, Duradeck, and Armadeck, each developed to provide specialized solutions for various needs. Whether it’s about temporary roads or stabilizing heavy equipment on soft surfaces, there is a product that is optimal for every challenge. The products also protect machinery against the substrate and contribute to increased safety for operators and workers. They can even create a road on snow-covered areas.
1. Signaroad: Secure and efficient transport in natural terrain, over grass areas and other vulnerable surfaces.
Description: Signaroad consists of plates specially designed for transporting heavy equipment and materials over vulnerable surfaces. They are ideally suited for constructing temporary roads in most construction projects, where the plates provide improved access for construction machinery on soft or vulnerable terrain, protect the underlying surface, and ensure effective project execution. In many cases, they can also replace steel plates.
Function: Signaroad allows contractors to carry out work on grass and vulnerable areas with minimal environmental impact.
Key Advantages:
- Damage-free Transport: Increased safety for construction machinery and workers.
- Efficiency: Makes it easier and faster to complete projects in vulnerable areas.
- Fast Installation: Easy assembly with robust cam locks.
- Environmentally Friendly and Recyclable: Long service life of up to 20 years.
- Economic Efficiency: Lower transportation costs compared to steel plates.
- Enables projects that would otherwise be delayed.
- Used in All Environments: Can be used with significant temperature fluctuations and is easy to keep clean in hazardous areas.
Typical Applications:
- Construction sites and wetlands: Temporary roads that protect vulnerable surfaces.
- Events: In all areas where very heavy rig operations are conducted over uneven ground.
- Parking and landing areas: Fast and flexible installation.
SignaRoad combines strength, flexibility, and environmental friendliness, providing a reliable solution for demanding projects. With easy installation and high durability, it is a cost-effective choice for both small and large needs.
2. Megadeck: The most robust drive plate system. For vulnerable and demanding surfaces.
MegaDeck is an advanced drive plate system developed for transporting heavy equipment and materials over vulnerable areas such as grass, soil, and wetlands. These robust plates combine strength and stability, and are ideal for temporary roads, parking areas, and storage facilities. With the market’s largest panels and best load-bearing capacity, MegaDeck can withstand even the most demanding conditions while ensuring the stability of the surface and reducing the risk of damage.
Function: MegaDeck features an integrated weight distribution principle that spreads the weight of heavy equipment and materials, making it ideal for work on vulnerable surfaces. It also has a patented locking system that prevents the joints from becoming a weak point.
Key Advantages:
- Weight Distribution: Prevents damage to the substrate.
- Safety:Ensures stability and reduces the risk of accidents.
- Extreme Load-Bearing Capacity: The ribbed interior provides extra strength and distributes weight without compromising stability.
- Easy Handling:Can be easily managed with a forklift and connected with robust HDPE flanges and locking mechanisms.
- Long Durability:Approximately 15–20 years under heavy load.
- Used in All Environments:Used in All Environments: Can be used with significant temperature fluctuations and is easy to keep clean in hazardous areas.
Typical Applications:
- Wetlands and boggy terrain:Perfect for access roads through soft ground.
- Storage areas for heavy equipment:A stable and secure platform for storage.
- Temporary parking areas:Fast and secure installation.
- Temporary construction roads: Even for the heaviest vehicles and construction operations.
MegaDeck combines superior load-bearing capacity with user-friendliness and durability, making it an ideal solution for projects that require temporary support on challenging surfaces.
In this part we have seen how SignaRoad and MegaDeck deliver solid and flexible solutions that protect vulnerable substrates while ensuring safe and efficient transport of heavy equipment. These products are not only the key to overcoming challenges in demanding work environments, but they also represent a renewed approach to sustainability and efficiency in modern construction projects.
In the next article, which will follow shortly, we will dive into two other innovative solutions – DuraDeck and ArmorDeck. Here you’ll gain insight into how mobility and robustness go hand in hand to give you even more opportunities to secure and streamline your projects. Stay tuned to discover how these products further complete the picture of a comprehensive drive‑plate system that meets tomorrow’s demands.
