Crane outriggers supported by load distribution pads on soft ground during heavy lifting operations

Crane & Heavy Lifting Operations

The Challenge
Crane operations generate extremely high point loads. Soft ground, backfilled soil, or uneven terrain can significantly increase the risk of instability during lifting.

Our Solution
UHMWPE outrigger pads and load support solutions distribute concentrated loads over a wider surface area, improving stability and reducing the risk of ground failure. These solutions are reusable, moisture-resistant, and suitable for demanding lifting environments.

Typical Applications

  • Mobile and truck crane outrigger support
  • All-terrain crane setup on soft or unpaved ground
  • Temporary heavy lifting during equipment installation
  • Lifting operations on uneven terrain

Construction Site Access & Ground Protection

The Challenge
Construction sites often require temporary access for heavy equipment while protecting soil, grass, or finished surfaces from damage.

Our Solution
Ground protection mats create a stable, load-spreading surface that supports equipment movement while minimizing ground disturbance. Designed for temporary and repeat use, they are easy to deploy and remove as site conditions change.

Typical Applications

  • Temporary access roads for construction equipment

  • Ground protection for cranes, excavators, and lift platforms

  • Access over soft soil, mud, or landscaped areas

  • Protection of finished surfaces during construction

Recommended Solutions

Heavy equipment supported by cribbing blocks during installation and maintenance operations

Heavy Equipment Installation & Maintenance

The Challenge
Heavy machinery requires stable and level support during installation or maintenance, often without permanent foundations.

Our Solution
UHMWPE and composite HDPE plastic sleepers and load blocks provide reliable static load support while protecting floors and equipment. Unlike timber supports, they offer consistent dimensions and resistance to moisture and corrosion.

Typical Applications

  • Equipment positioning during installation

  • Temporary leveling and stabilization

  • Floor protection under heavy static loads

  • Long-term storage support in harsh environments

Recommended Solutions

Custom UHMWPE and HDPE machined parts for wear resistance, sliding, and impact protection

Wear, Sliding & Impact Protection

The Challenge
Metal components exposed to abrasion, impact, or corrosive environments often wear quickly and require frequent maintenance.

Our Solution
Custom-machined UHMWPE components provide excellent wear resistance, low friction, and impact strength. Parts are CNC-machined based on drawings to meet specific operating conditions.

Typical Applications

  • Wear plates and liners

  • Sliding and guiding components

  • Impact protection parts

  • Applications where steel or rubber components face excessive wear, friction, moisture, or corrosion

Sports & Leisure Installations

The Challenge
Sports and leisure facilities require durable systems that deliver consistent performance with minimal maintenance.

Our Solution
UHMWPE synthetic ice panels and durable rink barrier systems provide long service life, reliable performance, and flexible installation options for temporary or permanent facilities.

Typical Applications

  • Synthetic ice rinks (indoor or temporary)

  • Training facilities

  • Temporary sports installations

  • Rink and sports facility perimeter protection

Soft or Unstable Ground Conditions

The Challenge
Soft soil, mud, sand, or recently backfilled ground may provide insufficient support for concentrated loads from heavy equipment.

Our Solution
UHMWPE outrigger pads and ground protection mats distribute loads evenly, reducing ground pressure and improving stability without permanent site modification.

Common Uses

  • Crane outrigger support on soft ground

  • Temporary equipment setup

  • Site access over unstable terrain

High Point Load Distribution

The Challenge
High point loads from cranes or heavy machinery can cause ground failure, settlement, or surface damage.

Our Solution
Load-spreading pads and support blocks distribute concentrated loads over a wider area, reducing localized pressure on ground or floors and improving support stability.

Common Uses

  • Crane and heavy lifting operations

  • Heavy machinery support

  • Temporary load-bearing setups

Moist, Corrosive or Harsh Environments

The Challenge
Wood and steel components degrade quickly when exposed to moisture, chemicals, or corrosive conditions.

Our Solution
UHMWPE and composite HDPE materials resist moisture absorption, corrosion, and chemical exposure, making them suitable for harsh operating environments.

Common Uses

  • Reusable cribbing in wet conditions

  • Equipment support in corrosive environments

  • Long-term outdoor applications

Temporary & Reusable Engineering Solutions

The Challenge
Many projects require temporary solutions that can be installed, removed, and reused across multiple sites without permanent foundations.

Our Solution
Reusable UHMWPE and HDPE products provide flexible support solutions for temporary projects, changing work conditions, and repeated use across multiple sites.

Common Uses

  • Temporary construction projects

  • Short-term equipment installation

  • Reusable ground and load support systems
