They can therefore be reused immediately when needed. They have proven their effectiveness: in the majority of cases listed, vehicles are rescued in less than 15 minutes.

Technical characteristics of roll-up traction mat
We manufacture Mustmove® VRS roll-up traction mat from a reinforced technical textile coated with a specific polymer. A kit consists of two flexible recovery mats and an innovative set of anchors*. These consist of an aluminum anchor piece, a flexible link made of high-tenacity textile, and a device for arming and locking the anchors. This allows quick and easy installation of the anchors, as well as a total absence of danger for the wheels in case of rolling on the anchors, unlike metal stakes. Anchor installation and retrieval can be done in less than a minute.
