Protect Woodland While Keeping Works Moving

Why Ground Protection Matters For Forestry & Land Management

Forestry and estate work often takes place on soft, uneven ground that quickly churns under repeated traffic. At the same time, tree roots, habitats and access tracks must be protected for the long term. Without the right ground protection, operations slow down, reinstatement costs rise and woodland can suffer lasting damage.

GroundGuards Global supports forestry contractors, arborists, estate teams, rental fleets and distributors who need dependable mat systems to balance productivity with protection.

Protect Roots While Working Near Trees

Tree Root Protection Mats

Work near veteran trees, avenues and protected woodland often needs machinery access, but exposed roots and soft soils can be easily damaged. Using tree root protection mats helps you:

  • Spread loads so machinery can cross root zones with less compaction
  • Protect valuable and protected trees during construction or access works
  • Reduce reinstatement time and complaints after works are complete

Keep Timber & Estate Traffic Moving

Temporary Roadways & Haul Roads

Timber haulage, brash extraction and access for estate vehicles all rely on tracks that stay usable in wet weather. Bare ground and stone alone can quickly rut, wash out or become unsafe. Using mats for temporary roadways helps you:

  • Keep machinery and timber vehicles moving on soft or waterlogged tracks
  • Reduce rutting and erosion on forest roads and rides
  • Cut back on stone import and post job track repairs

Safe Productive Operations On Site

Work Pads & Storage Areas

Loading areas, timber stacks, chipping zones and machinery service points all benefit from stable, level ground. Without matting, these areas can quickly become muddy and hard to use. Mat based work pads and storage areas help you:

  • Provide stable surfaces for machinery, timber stacks and chippers
  • Improve footing for crews working around equipment
  • Reduce ground damage around gateways, rides and stack sites

Reliable Access, Lower Reinstatement Costs

Protect Habitats & Reinstatement Areas

Many forestry and land management projects take place in sensitive landscapes such as nature reserves, parkland or public access woodland. Deep ruts, compaction and erosion can take years to recover. Using mats to protect sensitive areas helps you:

  • Limit damage to rides, paths, lawns and open habitats
  • Reduce soil compaction in reinstatement sensitive zones
  • Lower long term reinstatement and habitat recovery costs
