FAUN TRACKWAY USA Launches Light Weight Vehicle Recovery Mats

FAUN TRACKWAY USA INC, the leading manufacturer of portable roadways and runways, is enhancing its portfolio of ground mobility systems with the launch of Light Weight Vehicle Recovery Mats (LVRM).

Light Weight Vehicle Recovery Mats (LVRM)

A lightweight woven matting that weighs just 9lb, the LVRM provides a recovery solution for vehicles of up to 10 tonnes that have become bogged down.

Through a composition of durable textile strips and reinforced epoxy transverse rods, the matting provides even wheel load distribution to military and civilian vehicles with pneumatic tyres.

Suitable for use in very soft muddy or snowy conditions as well as loose, granular sand, the LVRM can be quickly rolled out laid by hand to minimize the time a force is out of action.

The non-slip material is resistant to both chemical and biological degradation and can be easily cleaned and repackaged for future use. Offering 15 sq ft of ground covering as standard, there is also the option of ordering bespoke sizes to suit forces’ specific needs.

Michael Holdcraft, vice president of business development at FAUN TRACKWAY USA, said: “There’s been much interest from expeditionary forces with small vehicle fleets for a robust, lightweight recovery solution, which is what we’ve delivered with the LVRM.

“The new system neatly complements our existing product catalogue, delivering multi-terrain capabilities at a much lower weight. We’re confident it will prove popular with a range of military organisations.”
