Anchors to any substrate. Pyramids clean tires by deforming treads and allowing trapped sediment to become dislodged. Sediment collects at the base of the mats away from vehicle tires.
FODS Trackout Control System
Learn about the FODS Trackout Control System and how you can reduce street sweeping by 59% compared to stone stabilized construction entrances. The system effectively minimizes tracking from construction sites and helps to reduce costs and increase compliance with NPDES guidelines.
Benefits include:
Minimizes trackout on job site egress points.
More effective than stabilized rock entrances over equal distance.
Install and relocate in under 30 minutes with minimal labor.
Compact exit that can minimize trackout in space restricted areas.
Durable construction entrance that supports weight in excess of 80 tons.
Lightweight, quick to move, reinstall, and reuse during project phases.
Lower cost per entrance and long term savings with a lifespan of 10+ years.

The Modern Construction Entrance BMP
A common cause of stormwater pollution on construction sites is vehicle trackout which is then washed into storm drains. FODS engineered a modern, reusable construction entrance BMP that has proven to be both effective and low cost.
The unique patented structure of the mats allows efficient cleaning of sediment and debris from vehicle tires. The pyramids deform tires to spread tread lugs capturing debris at the base of the mats.
Effective
The FODS Trackout Control system effective at reducing roadway debris, airborne dust, stormwater pollutants, and riprap waste. FODS mats contains rows of staggered pyramids that deform vehicle tires and allow sediment to break loose. Sediment is contained away from vehicles at the base of the pyramids.
FODS are effective at cleaning debris from any size tires. Contractors using the system can stay compliant with stormwater regulations and avoid stormwater violation fines. On a high traffic project in Harris County, FODS has been demonstrated to reduce street sweeping by up to 59%.
Because FODS Reusable Construction Entrance is more effective than rock entrances, a standard 1x5T configuration (35’ long) is commonly used to substitute for a 70’ rock entrance. See CDOT Spec.
The durable mats are made to hold up to construction site workloads. Each HDPE pyramids can hold over 23,000 lbs each. Total weight capacity of the mat is over a million lbs!
Durable
FODS Construction Entrance Mats are designed for heavy-duty applications. The high density polyethylene mats are strong enough to hold haul trucks and loaders while also able to be traversed by passenger vehicles. With an embedded UV inhibitor, the system has an expected service life of 10+ years.
Unlike traditional one-time-use rock entrances, FODS Reusable Construction Entrance is designed for repeated applications. FODS will not become flattened under heavy loads or rain events and can be quickly refreshed by cleaning when sediment builds between the pyramids. The mats are fully reusable and contractors can eliminate the need for consumable materials such as aggregate and geotextile fabric on their construction entrances.
Contractors can complete all maintenance on-site without the need for additional materials which helps to keep the total operating costs to a minimum.

CalTrans I-10 Tune Up Project Uses FODS as a portable construction entrance on each phase of the job. Minimal preparation and remediation is needed at each site.
Portable
On phased projects such as highway projects, pipeline jobs, and residential subdivisions FODS can be even more useful. Many highway projects require installation of tens or hundreds of construction entrances. A single set of mats can last for 10+ years and can substitute for 1,000 of tons of aggregate. As the portable mats are reused through each phase of the project, contractors are able to significantly reduce the costs associated with site preparation.
The FODS system can be anchored on any substrate and be installed and relocated in as little as 30 minutes. Each mat is 12’ wide x 7’ long and can be transported using a standard utility trailer or flatbed.
In most cases, there is no preparation needed before installation, and the mats can be installed without heavy equipment. Because there is no removal of sediment, or addition of foreign aggregate, remediation is minimal.
