GEKO transparent mat for petrol plate compactor CNP20(1/10) - protective base layer

Transparent protective mat by GEKO designed for use with the petrol plate compactor model CNP20(1/10). This protective base layer sits between the compactor plate and the working surface to reduce direct contact, prevent minor abrasion and protect finished paving, tiles or other delicate materials during compaction. The mat is lightweight, easy to position and remove, and intended for situations where temporary surface protection is needed while using a petrol plate compactor.

Advantages

The GEKO transparent mat provides a clear barrier that allows the operator to monitor the contact area while preventing scuffs and small chips on finished surfaces. Its material balances flexibility and durability to conform to slightly uneven plates and surfaces without tearing under typical compaction forces. The mat is simple to handle, install and store, supporting efficient workflow on construction and landscaping sites.

Suitable for

• Protecting finished paving slabs and block paving during compaction
• Preventing damage to ceramic or stone tiles when using a plate compactor
• Temporary protection of delicate surfaces on landscaping and renovation projects
• Use on thin or newly laid surfaces that require reduced direct impact

Key specifications

• Transparent protective base layer compatible with petrol plate compactors
• Flexible material that conforms to plate and surface contours
• Lightweight and easy to place and remove by a single operator
• Intended for temporary use to reduce surface abrasion and minor impact

How to use

Place the GEKO transparent mat centrally on the compactor plate before lowering the machine onto the working surface. Ensure the mat covers the entire plate contact area and lies flat without folds or creases that could concentrate pressure. Operate the plate compactor according to the machine manufacturer’s instructions, checking periodically that the mat remains correctly positioned and undamaged. Remove the mat after compaction and inspect the protected surface for any necessary finishing.

Usage recommendations

Use the mat on clean compactor plates and surfaces to avoid trapping grit that could cause scratching. Replace the mat if signs of excessive wear, cuts, or permanent deformation appear. Do not use the mat as a permanent wear surface; it is intended only for temporary protection during compaction tasks.
