AlturnaMATS in Action
Posted 05.27.2011

Drainscope working in conjunction with Victoria Drain and the Hancock Wildlife Foundation, recently rescued and saved a baby Eaglet in the area of Sydney, BC. A key part of the operation was the use of AlturnaMATS ground protection mats to access the damp bog with the crane needed for the rescue. It was an fantastic operation by many folks and a heart warming display of goodwill in action.

Testimony #141 Colt Rainwater, Holmes Erection
Posted 03.04.2011

We have no complaints about the  pads and they have exceeded our expectations. They are very durable and reliable when supporting extreme weights. We tried a similar mat that was cheaper and found out the hard way that it was a mistake. They were not near as durable as the DICA outrigger pads and show severe signs of wear after very little use. After a year of use, the DICA pads are still in full service with no problems.

We trust these outrigger pads to support well over 200,000 lbs of weight distributed throughout the four outriggers of the crane. The only replacement we have made to these padss are the rope handles. We put to service several different models of DICA pads including the DR482, DR362, DUN23552. We are overall satisfied with DICA.

Thanks,
Colt Rainwater

“AlturnaMATS Have Paid For Themselves!” Testimony #139
Posted 10.10.2010
The Ground Protection Mats are working just as expected.  We transported 50 yards of dirt, 30 tons of roadbase, and 45 half pallets of pavers across them in a two week period and today the client is mowing the area of turf as if nothing happened. So the AlturnaMATS have paid for themselves on the first job. Look at the invoice for the mats I bought and compare that to the $3,700 I would have charged the client for re-sod of the traffic area. Pretty cool!
