Film & TV Production Ground Protection
Protect film and TV locations and backlots while keeping access open for every department, with mats supplied worldwide in pallet and container loads from European ports.
Why Ground Protection Matters For Film & TV
Film and TV productions put intense pressure on locations. Unit trucks, track, lighting, cranes and crowds all need safe footing, often in places that must be handed back in perfect condition. Rain or repeated traffic can turn routes to mud, delay shooting and risk damage to valuable locations.
GroundGuards Global supports production companies, location managers, studios, rental fleets and distributors who need dependable mat systems to protect sites and keep schedules on track.

Protect Valuable Locations From Damage
Historic streets, parkland, private homes and wild landscapes are all part of the story. They are also sensitive to rutting and surface damage from units and equipment. Using mats at locations helps you:
- Protect lawns, tracks and drives from vehicle and foot traffic
- Keep locations tidy and usable through long shooting days
- Reduce reinstatement time and show that you take care of each site

Maintain Reliable Access For Every Department
Camera, lighting, sound, art and locations all rely on predictable access. Without protection, access roads and paths slow down dollies, grip equipment and support trucks. Mat based access routes help you:
- Keep unit vehicles, gators and tech trucks moving in bad weather
- Give camera and grip teams smooth, stable routes for track and dollies
- Reduce delays during company moves between set ups

Clean, Organised Sets For Smooth Production
Base camps, costume, make up and catering areas must stay clean and safe, even when set on grass or rough ground. Muddy compounds slow movement and look poor on behind the scenes content. Using mats in compounds and set areas helps you:
- Create tidy, non slip surfaces for cabins, tents and trucks
- Reduce mud and water entering costume, make up and catering
- Keep core crew spaces presentable throughout the shoot

Flexible Solutions For Every Production Need
Each production has unique demands, from fast one day commercials to long running dramas and features. Layouts change as scripts, locations and schedules evolve. Using reusable mat systems helps you:
- Move protection between units, stages and locations as the schedule shifts
- Use the same stock across multiple shows and seasons
- Reduce waste compared with single use flooring and imported stone
