Video Highlights Eucalyptus – It All Adds Up:

Eucalyptus crane mats help contractors move from treating mats as a necessary expense to treating them as a profit driver. Because Eucalyptus is significantly stronger than typical mixed hardwood, you get longer life. Because Eucalyptus is lighter inch by inch you increase mats per truckload. You also reduce jobsite damage. The result is lower total cost of ownership over the life of the mat fleet. That means better margins on every project. 

Explainer

  • Stronger material: Single species plantation eucalyptus mats deliver higher bending strength than common mixed hardwood mats, so they last longer under heavy equipment.

  • More mats per truck: Because Eucalyptus mats are lighter inch by inch vs. mixed hardwoods you get more mats per truck. And, a thinner Eucalyptus mat can typically replace a thicker mixed hardwood mat. You can load even more mats per truck, lowering freight cost per usable mat.

  • Better total economics: Longer life plus more mats per load means a lower total cost of ownership and higher profitability across your mat fleet.

Video Highlights – Total Costs of Ownership – Why It All Adds Up

Buying a eucalyptus mat is like buying a good pair of work boots. When you choose stronger materials and consistent manufacturing, you get gear that simply lasts longer and costs less over time.

Three-point summary

  • Stronger materials: Eucalyptus crane mats use high-quality plantation Eucalyptus that behaves more like a premium boot leather. They are stiffer, tougher, and built to take daily abuse without breaking down.

  • Standardized manufacturing: A good boot brand gives you the same fit and performance every time. Eucalyptus mats are manufactured to consistent specs, so you know how they will perform from job to job.

  • Boots that last, mats that last: Paying a bit more for high‑quality boots saves money because they outlast cheap pairs. The same logic applies to eucalyptus mats. They deliver more years of service and lower total cost of ownership than typical mixed hardwood mats.
