The heavy duty panels Light are inexpensive floor panels that can be driven on at events and construction sites with heavy traffic . The plastic floor covers (recycled PVC) are non-slip on many surfaces and are suitable as terrain panels in outdoor areas or as event floors in indoor areas. The panels are also laid for protection, for example as floor protection for tartan tracks or over a sensitive hall floor. If they are used as construction site panels, closed surfaces can be created that are smooth and even. At events, for example, the panels can then be used as a base for stages, tents, containers, etc., and also as temporary areas for standing areas and seating.

The heavy duty panels Light offer a load capacity of 2.0 t / dm². This means that the panels can also be used to set up infrastructure at an open-air event and can be driven on by a heavy truck, articulated lorry, forklift truck, etc. as a transport and construction road .

The plastic material is similar to that of our Ranger cable protectors – recycled PVC, which is mixed with UV stabilisers and is resistant to oil, acid, solvents and petrol as well as being normally flammable (fire protection class B2 ). Furthermore, it has very good thermal insulation properties and reduces impact sound .

You can buy the heavy duty panels here in two sizes:

• The large Remopla Light at 80 x 120 x 2.2 cm and
• the small Remopla Light with 80 x 60 x 2.2 cm (length x width x height).

The weight of the heavy duty panels is 20 kg or 12.5 kg. The panels are stackable, and 50 or 100 panels can be transported on each Euro pallet.

Surface and substructure of the heavy-duty floor

Small and large dimples ensure a non-slip surface that provides safety for people, vehicles and machines. A chamber profile forms the substructure of the heavy-duty panels and ensures optimal grip on a variety of different surfaces (turf, gravel, cobblestones, sand, soil). Cleaning the construction site plates is easy. Dried soil can be tapped off or removed with a steam jet. We only recommend placing a separating layer (e.g. foils or fleece) under the plates to protect them when laying on green areas or similar.

Remopla heavy duty panels light – more than just PVC panels

about the material: Remopla heavy duty panels are made of recycled PVC, just like our cable protectors. This results in a "used" look. The signs of wear are production-related and do not constitute grounds for complaint. The use of recycled PVC has no influence on the quality of the robust floor panels.

Correct installation of a heavy-duty floor provides safety for pedestrians, forklifts, lorries and other vehicles.

The prerequisite for proper installation of the tiles is a level surface. This is necessary to ensure a secure connection between the elements. If you are laying the heavy-duty floor on tartan tracks, lawns or similar sensitive surfaces, you should place a PE foil or a geotextile as a separating layer between the surface and the heavy-duty floor. This results in more stability, prevents abrasion and the event floor does not get dirty on the underside.

The panels are connected by a circumferential fold – a tongue and groove system. This connection system means that the heavy duty panels can be quickly installed and easily dismantled. Furthermore, this system is hardly prone to errors. The panels should always be laid so that the joint (element bottom ⊔ ) is on the floor first, so that the groove (element ⊓ ) can be conveniently snapped into the joint from above. This groove-joint principle is repeated until the desired length (area/path) has been laid.

To create greater stability, we recommend laying the floor covering in an offset pattern. To obtain straight edges with this installation method, a small heavy-duty panel should be installed at the end of every second row.

As an accessory for barrier-free installation, you can purchase special access ramps for the heavy duty panels. If you work with these ramps, you should also start with them when laying the floor.

The angle]of the access ramps does not exactly match the value given in the MVStättVO. According to experience reports, the responsible authorities are very accommodating and accept the floor plates even without ramps. Nevertheless, we recommend: Play it safe and get approval from the relevant authorities.

: the behaviour of the plastic heavy duty panels varies depending on the ambient temperature. Very high temperatures cause the PVC to become softer, while the material is harder when it is cold. Recycled plastic becomes brittle and prone to breakage at extremely low temperatures. "Blow ups" (the bulging of the plates) are avoided by providing the heavy-duty floor with sufficient space to expand when it is laid. This phenomenon can be observed at higher temperatures if the plates do not have enough room to move.

Maintenance of PVC tiles

The heavy duty panels Light do not require any special maintenance. By using underlays (foils, fleece) on green areas, cleaning of the panels is almost completely eliminated. After the event, both sides of the heavy duty floor can be easily cleaned with a steam cleaner and used for many more events.

Heavy duty panels in use as terrain panels, driveway panels or construction site road

The Remopla Light heavy duty panel is versatile. At events, the composite panels are used to create temporary paths and surfaces. If you lay just one row of heavy-duty panels, it is ideal for pedestrian paths, ants or lifting trucks. The more panels you use, the greater the possibilities: here, the heavy-duty floor then serves as a resilient terrain plate for trucks, forklifts, articulated lorries and the like.

The construction site panels create a very stable surface for the infrastructure on the site. This can be used, for example, to create temporary parking areas, as a space for catering stands and containers (sanitary and office containers), as well as seating and standing room in public areas. Under certain circumstances, the heavy duty panels can also be used as a substructure for stages, grandstands and similar. For large structures, we recommend that you get the okay of a structural engineer.

visually appealing results, the heavy-duty floor can be covered with screen printing plates and a visually appealing floor covering, for example an exhibition carpet.

Surfaces such as grass and what should be considered

It is generally possible to lay heavy duty panels on grass, but there are a few points to consider. These include the condition of the lawn and the climatic conditions.

A damp lawn is an unsuitable surface for heavy duty panels, because the panels could partially sink into the ground. If they are at an incline, the connecting pieces will no longer fit properly into each other. Heavy duty panels are not lawn mats! The grass will not get any light and will have great difficulty in "breathing" underneath. Heavy duty panels should therefore not be left on a lawn for too long. What is not possible is to use them on expensive, heated football pitches. Heavy duty panels should never be used here!

Information, tips and tricks for the correct use of floor plates

We have put together a few tips to help you ensure optimal handling, correct use and, last but not least, a safe event. Please note the following points:

• Heavy duty panels can be worked on with a circular saw (wood saw blade).
• Drilling a hole for screw fastening is not a problem.
• Heat softens the plates and can cause bulging due to expansion.
• Cold makes the PVC material harder and more brittle.
• Cables can be crushed or cut under the plates, so we recommend using cable protectors.
• Do not turn on the spot with vehicles, as this will cause the plates to shift.
• No emergency braking is allowed; always approach the plates slowly
• Heavy duty panels do not distribute the pressure evenly across the entire surface, but stability can be increased by laying them in an offset pattern and by adding a protective layer (foils, fleeces)
• A smooth surface and full load capacity can only be guaranteed on firm ground
• Heavy duty panels are ideal for combining with panels because they are the same height.

Heavy duty panels compared

In the following list, alternative products are compared with the heavy duty panel Light:

Portafloor
Portafloor is only a formwork sheet with a grass covering, which is only designed for foot traffic.

Formwork panels
are a cheaper alternative to Remopla heavy duty panels, but are not as durable and tend to warp.

Plywood
Plywood, like plywood, is made of wood. They also tend to warp and do not form a homogeneous surface, and are not as non-slip.

Panels
panels weigh many times more than Remopla heavy duty panels, but they distribute the applied loads. Panels are often used in combination with heavy duty panels.

Accessories for the event floor

You can buyheavy duty panels, as well as the appropriate accessories, in our shop. With an access ramp, we offer the option of a clean and barrier-free finish for the heavy duty panel light . If you do not use access ramps, the height offset of the edge can be highlighted with warning tape. To protect sensitive floors such as tartan tracks, we recommend using our PE foil 90 my as a separating layer. Our geotextile (155 g, grey) should be placed under the heavy-duty plates on green areas to avoid leaving any rubber residue or rubbish in the green area. Furthermore, the use of geotextile prevents soil from being pressed into the chambers on the underside. Our warning tape is recommended for the subdivision or demarcation of heavy-duty slab areas.

Alternative floor covering for heavy duty

For heavy traffic from tractor-trailers, etc., we offer you the heavy-duty panel Heavy as an alternative to the heavy-duty panel Light. This also consists of recycled plastic and has the same properties. The difference lies in the load capacity, the weight, the height and the surface structure.

A comparison of light and heavy:

The small variants of the heavy duty panels are in the same ratio to each other as the large ones.
