FODS Trackout Control Mats provide a durable, reusable construction entrance system minimizing sediment and debris tracked onto impermeable roadways. With FODS, contractors can quickly establish a stabilized entrance and relocate access locations as the project progresses.
The system is built with extremely durable HDPE and is designed to last. With a 3 year warranty and a lifespan of 10+ years, FODS mats offer contractors an effective solution for erosion and sediment control.
Compared to traditional rock entrances, FODS allows contractors to adapt stay compliant in all weather conditions while reducing labor and material costs.
Effectiveness
FODS continues to perform throughout the life of the mats. In field tests, FODS has shown to reduce trackout by 59% compared to rock.
Rock entrances are most effective when first installed. Weather events and compaction reduce effectiveness of the entrance leading to inconsistent performance.
Costs
As a reusable construction entrance, FODS can reduce costs by over 90% compared to rock entrances.
Cost of materials, delivery and labor vary from job to job. In most cases, reusing material is not economically feasible so costs continue to increase on every project.
Labor
Installation and removal can be completed in 30 minutes with two workers. FODS entrances can be maintained using a sweeper as part of the sweeping schedule reducing additional labor to maintain the entrance.
Rock entrances require time and heavy equipment to install and remove. The ongoing maintenance also requires additional material costs and the use of equipment to spread or mix material.
Lifespan
FODS Mats are designed for long life in demanding conditions with an expected service life of 10+ years, allowing multiple uses with no additional material costs.
Rock construction entrance lifespan can vary from weeks to a few months. The continual maintenance of rock entrances requires additional material costs. Weather events can further reduce the usable duration of an entrance.
Install & Clean Up
FODS can be installed and removed with simple hand tools. A typical entrance can be transported on a standard utility trailer. No heavy equipment required.
Installation and removal of a rock entrance requires equipment and multiple loads of rock to be delivered and removed at the end of the project.

The FODS construction entrance can be installed in as little as 30 minutes. Installation can typically be completed with just hand tools and no heavy equipment.
The FODS System is designed to last for over a decade in the field.
Using FODS can help to increase compliance with NPDES Stormwater permit requirements. The design enables consistent performance over multiple years on multiple jobs.
Since its initial construction in 2014, Starbase has evolved from assembly and testing site into a fully operational launch complex, serving as the primary hub for SpaceX's ambitious Starship program. Early development efforts focused on site preparation, infrastructure installation, and environmental compliance.
