FODS (Foreign Object Debris System) Track Out Control Matting

FODS reusable rumble matting is the eco-friendly solution to a common problem on construction sites – building and maintaining effective sediment control on site entry/exit points.

Made from a durable, flexible, reusable and recyclable polymer, FODS was developed by a team of contractors and engineers who were frustrated with the costs of traditional track out solutions like aggregate and wheel washes that were ultimately ineffective. They understood the need for a system that required less set-up and removal than aggregate, was more water-efficient than a wheel-wash and was environmentally friendly without costing the earth.

Current methods of constructing a rock pad and installing steel rumble grids each have their own limitations:
– Rock pads are not reusable, require constant monitoring for blockage, need regular top ups and are not recommended for sticky clay sites.
– Steel rumble grids require digging for sediment storage chambers which are troublesome to desilt regularly, and are seen as a potential risk for truck damage.

Simply laying down FODS matting provides projects a far more effective sediment control on entry and exit points of construction sites. The installation of the product only requires surface mounting which means there is no trenching required and is suitable on most surfaces including asphalt and concrete.
