Timbermat supply heavy duty mats for a range of large civil engineering projects which help to create a stable platform for work to be carried out, a safe space for vehicles and equipment to manoeuvre and a staging area for all materials to be stored.

Hire or buy bog mats for civil engineering projects

We’ve been working with companies carrying out civil engineering projects for many years, so we understand that every project is different and has unique requirements. Because of this, we aim to offer complete flexibility when working with engineering companies who wish to hire or buy heavy duty mats.

If you consistently work on large projects, buying suitable bog mats will give you one less thing to worry about as projects commence, allowing you to focus on getting straight to work.

However, if your heavy duty mat requirements are more irregular, it may work out to be more financially-prudent to hire bog mats as needed.

Our heavy duty mats are ideally suited to large engineering projects, creating a stable platform on which work can be carried out, a safe space for equipment and vehicles to manoeuvre, and a staging area for materials to be stored until they are needed.

Bog mats serve many different purposes on sites where civil engineering work is in progress, as well as surrounding land and routes to bring materials and machinery to the site, they can:

  • Reduce point pressure on land with buried utilities, basements, storage tanks and other cavities.
  • Span patches of poor ground, prevent subsidence, bogged down wheels and toppled vehicles.
  • Create solid working platforms for heavy plant, lifting vehicles, cranes and piling rigs.
  • Overcome difficult ground features including exposed channels, drains, wet and tidal land.
  • Demarcate safe routes on to and across sites for vehicles and pedestrians alike.

These are just some of the advantages to using heavy duty mats on sites with specific ground quality problems, or on an active job site as a precautionary measure and to make the movement of vehicles, equipment and civil engineering materials easier.

Heavy duty mats for sale and hire


We appreciate that many organisations working in the civil engineering sector have a continual need for ground protection mats due to regular demolition or infrastructure work and operating with heavy plant.

Because of this, we hold quantities of stock of heavy equipment mats in a range of European hardwood and tropical hardwood timbers, including Ekki timber mats which offer market-leading strength characteristics.

Our close partnerships with sustainable timber suppliers in Europe and Africa mean we can also source additional mats if required, allowing us to cater for very large orders without difficulties.

If you are working on a one-off civil engineering project, or a particular site poses specific demands you will only face in the short term, we have heavy duty mats to hire that you can return to Timbermat once the work is completed.

Alternatively, we have a range of timber bog mats for sale, allowing you to ensure that your requirements will be catered for for many years to come.

Our thickest heavy equipment mats

Generally speaking, thicker bog mats can take heavier loads and more demanding use.

You may opt for ordinary hardwood timber mats, in which case our thickest heavy-duty mats are able to handle the heaviest traffic.

We have tropical hardwood mats, including Ekki bog mats, which offer unparalleled strength and durability, in sizes up to 1m x 5m and 200-300 mm thick.
