• 100% waterproof against mud and sand


• Anti-slip and anti-abrasion rubber surface.


• IR beacons for night detection thanks using night vision binoculars


• Really easier to clean and remove from muddy or swampy ground


• Repairable


• Rollable


• More puncture resistant than plastic mats


• Customizable (color, size, marking...)

*Patents granted.

An access road is very useful in case of an emergency situation. Military aircraft pilots use landing mat to land in better conditions and thus avoid major damage. When goods from a military ship have to be transferred from sea to land or vice versa, a temporary access road is used to stabilise the vehicles with these goods.Really useful!
During missions in the desert, sand or mud, soldiers need a maintenance mat. This prevents damage to vehicle parts. there are traction mat or recovery tracks.
A temporary access road is used to maintain a stable floor when crossing a vehicle, for example, or when crossing pedestrians with reduced mobility.
Musthane designs repairable access mats for a longer life. Moreover, it's easy to use!
