Advantages of plastic ground proctection mats in comparison with steel road plates
Want to buy steel road plates for your construction project or event? Of course, steel road plates are robust, heat-resistant and ideal for numerous applications. But plastic road plates usually offer many more advantages.
First and foremost, a plastic road plate is much lighter than a steel road plate. You can easily carry and move them alone. Plastic road plates are up to 3 times cheaper than the steel variants (after researching and comparing quotes from the largest distributors of steel road plates).
Convinced? Then view our range of plastic road plates. Not yet sure of your choice? Then read these seven benefits:
- Plastic road plates do not rust: steel road plates rust, plastic road plates do not. Furthermore, they are not only resistant to corrosion, but also to all kinds of acids and chemicals, making them last longer.
- Plastic road plates are safe: our road plates have a single-sided or double-sided anti-slip surface. You have more grip, even in wet or muddy conditions. This reduces the risk of slips and accidents in the workplace. In addition, there are no sharp edges, so you will not get scratches on pavers or damage to tires.
- No damage to the surface: Because plastic road plates are more compact and lighter than steel plates, they cause less damage to the surface, such as roads, sidewalks or lawns.
- Environmentally friendly: Our road plates are made from 100% recycled polyethylene (PE) and can be recycled into new products after use. A sustainable, environmentally friendly choice.
- Cost-effective: Thanks to their weather resistance and durability, plastic road plates generally have a longer lifespan than steel road plates. So you can use them for longer, which means serious cost savings.
- Sound-absorbing, so less noise pollution: Did you know that plastic road plates generally produce less noise during use than steel road plates?
- Easy to transport yourself: Their light weight makes them easy to transport, for example with a trailer, and the transport costs are also a lot lower. Win-win, right?
In short, plastic road plates are extremely user-friendly and versatile. As a result, 90% of people who were originally looking for steel road plates still buy plastic road plates.
