Anti-slip mats for load securing: VDI-compliant & certified

Anti-slip mats in the online shop

Anti-slip mats are an indispensable aid in logistics and the transport of cargo in trucks, car trunks, containers, freight wagons, vans, and light commercial vehicles. They provide stability and security for the transported goods. The mats increase the coefficient of friction and, when used in conjunction with lashing straps and securing materials, ensure that the cargo remains in position within the vehicle, even during emergency braking. Our anti-slip mats for protecting your cargo in cars or trucks are available in our online shop in a wide range of sizes, as rolls, anti-slip pads, and as self-adhesive anti-slip coatings. This ensures you'll always find the perfect high-quality anti-slip mats for effective load securing at a competitive price, regardless of the type of cargo.

The advantages of the anti-slip mat at a glance:

• In conjunction with lashing straps, they guarantee the secure hold of the goods during transport.
• prevent the load from slipping and "wandering".
• protect against cargo damage and prevent accidents
• increase the coefficient of sliding friction
  

Every year in Germany alone, inadequate load securing causes over €300 million in damages. Often, this results in injuries and significant environmental damage. Protect your valuable cargo, other road users, and the environment with our anti-slip mats.

Essential for load securing: our anti-slip mats

Anti-slip mats play a crucial role in load securing: they hold the cargo, together with lashing straps or tensioning straps, in its intended position. According to Section 22 of the German Road Traffic Regulations (StVO), cargo in every vehicle and load carrier must be secured in such a way that it does not slip, tip over, fall over, or even fall off, even during emergency braking or sudden steering maneuvers. In addition to the Road Traffic Regulations, several other rules and ordinances with the force of law also mandate the use of anti-slip mats for load securing. Both the VDI 2700 guideline and the European standard DIN EN 12195 are fundamental texts for describing the proper securing of cargo with anti-slip mats.

Rules and regulations for the use of anti-slip mats

VDI Guideline 2700 Sheet 15 describes the technical and quality requirements for anti-slip mats and other anti-slip materials (ASM) used in load securing. These must be tested and certified by an independent institute for their respective load securing applications. The standard also provides guidance on the use of anti-slip mats, such as calculating the coefficient of friction and the required lashing straps and tensioning straps . Sheet 15 of the guideline further describes the service life of anti-slip mats and which damage and signs of wear can impair their functionality. DIN EN 12195-1 provides further guidance and examples for calculating safety forces when securing loads.

Anti-slip mats in the truck

Whether you need anti-slip mats as cut-to-size rolls, anti-slip pads , or self-adhesive anti-slip coverings, our anti-slip mats are the ideal solution for increasing the coefficient of friction when professionally securing your cargo. Our MT "Premium" anti-slip mats are available in standard sizes and various thicknesses, as rolls for individual cutting, or custom-made to your exact specifications. Our anti-slip pads are also available in our online shop in various sizes and thicknesses, or you can order them according to your specific dimensions. The pads are available in different packaging units in our online shop.

High-quality materials guarantee durability.

Our professional MT "Premium" series truck anti-slip mats and pads are made from high-quality PU-bonded rubber granules and are designed for professional use. Due to their durability and the high quality of the materials used, they are suitable for multiple uses, offering a significantly longer service life before needing to be discarded. This saves you money and protects the environment, as the consumption of anti-slip mats is noticeably reduced. The black rubber mats are placed without adhesive on the floor of the load carrier and between individual layers of the transported goods, thereby increasing the coefficient of friction to 0.7 to 0.8 µ. The coefficients of friction and the positive properties of the mats were tested and certified by the Fraunhofer Institute for Material Flow and Logistics (IML) under real-world securing conditions and in accordance with VDI 2700. The tests showed that even contact with road salt and meltwater hardly affected the mat's properties – a clear advantage over products from other manufacturers. The advantages of the MT "Premium" anti-slip mat at a glance:

• Increase in the coefficient of sliding friction to up to 0.8 µ
• Easy installation due to low weight
• Extended usability due to higher binder content
• suitable for multiple uses
• Higher elongation at break than required by guidelines
• almost resistant to road salt and meltwater
• Tested and certified according to VDI 2700 by the Fraunhofer Institute IML

Self-adhesive anti-slip coating for truck floors, vans and open trailers

Do you need a permanent solution for anti-slip mats, ideally for fixed installation on the vehicle floor or loading area, to reduce loading and securing times? Here's the solution: our self-adhesive MT Secure anti-slip mat. This category of anti-slip mats is ideally suited for vans with open loading areas, open and closed trailers, small vans, delivery vehicles, and distribution vehicles, as well as truck floors or open small trailers. This mat is also perfectly suited for tail lifts and loading ramps. With this anti-slip mat, the noise level inside the vehicle is reduced by up to -20 dB(A). The wide selection of self-adhesive anti-slip mats in various sizes and with different coatings and surfaces (smooth, granulated, hard-grained), as well as with or without a stabilizing aluminum composite panel, guarantees a coefficient of friction of 0.6 µ, even on slippery surfaces. The hard-grained surface is even resistant to de-icing salts, automotive oils, and diesel, and the smooth version of this mat guarantees a coefficient of friction of 0.9 µ. Installation of these anti-slip mats is incredibly easy, as they can be cut to size with a utility knife. The adhesive backing ensures a secure hold on wooden floors, aluminum, steel, or plywood floors. The surface color of this mat is black.

The advantages of our self-adhesive anti-slip coating:

• permanent attachment to the load carrier
• Reduction of loading and unloading times
• diverse applications
• Easy installation and cutting with common tools
• Various coatings for different applications
• Increase in the coefficient of sliding friction to up to 0.9 µ

Anti-slip mats in the car and trunk

What applies to transporting goods in trucks, trailers, or containers also applies to the trunk of a privately owned car or a car trailer. Whether you're transporting cargo in the trunk of your car, in your camper van, or on the loading platform of your station wagon or van, it must be properly secured. If goods in a car's trunk are insufficiently secured or not secured at all, they can pose a danger to the life and limb of the occupants in the event of an accident, sudden steering maneuvers, or hard braking. For car anti-slip mats, we recommend our Black Cat series, available in our online shop as pads, on a roll, or pre-cut to size. The mats are also available in different thicknesses and for different load capacities. Always use anti-slip mats that are also used by professionals. Only certified and tested anti-slip mats guarantee flawless performance, secure grip, and therefore a high level of safety.

Anti-slip mats for the van

Both our black MT "Premium" series rubber mats and the self-adhesive MT Secure anti-slip mats are ideally suited for securing cargo in vans and light commercial vehicles. Whether as flexible anti-slip mat pads, custom-cut to size, as roll goods, or as permanently installed floor coverings , you will find the right mat for professional load securing for every requirement and cargo situation.

Beware of cheap anti-slip mats

For your own safety, do not use inferior anti-slip mats without a test certificate. Being cheap here is a poor advisor, as you risk hefty fines in the event of an accident and, if people are injured, even imprisonment. According to Section 22 of the German Road Traffic Regulations (StVO), the driver, the loader, and the freight forwarder are responsible for proper load securing. Therefore, all parties involved face legal consequences in the event of a traffic stop or an accident. The affordable price of our anti-slip mats for trucks, cars, containers, and vans should convince you to use only anti-slip mats that have been tested and certified for use as load securing devices by an independent institute in accordance with VDI Guideline 2700.
