Regupol Load Restraint Systems
Technical Details
| Delivery Forms | Rolls, sheets, cut to size on request |
| Friction Coefficient |
The friction coefficient of non-slip mats depends on the material combination. The contact surfaces i.e. load and floor must be swept clean and grease-free to achieve optimum non-slip properties.

| Thicknesses | 8 mm and 12 mm |
Australian Requirements:
Regupol® Load Mat offers many benefits to the Australian transport industry and manufacturers of products that have special loading requirements for transportation on Australian roads. Our rubber matting is manufactured using recycled SBR rubber (car tyres) which means that it exceeds 0.60 co-efficient of friction.
It is common knowledge that the use of rubber Load Mat underneath a load can more than halve the number of lashing needed which offers drivers, owners, operators, freight consignors, manufacturers and suppliers cost savings as the load takes less time/materials to secure and the security that the load will have a higher chance of arriving at its destination safely.
The NTC Australia (National Transport Commission) provides access to the Load Restraint Guide which outlines the correct procedures for safe cartage of loads on road vehicles. The Load Restraint Guide was prepared in co-operation with the RTA.

Regupol Non-slip mats and strips have also been tested by:
German Standard:
Applications comply with DIN 75410 and BGI 649 (formerly ZH1/413). They meet the requirements as per VDI 2700, sheet 3.2, sheet 9 and sheet 15. Regupol non-slip mats reduce damage to the load and to the vehicles. Costs are reduced by minimizing the expenditure involved in wedging and tying down the load. Regupol non-slip mats effectively increase safety on road, rail, air and sea transport.
