Norway serves as a worldwide distribution network. 

The Matrix Equipment concept

Matrix’s concept is based on the modularity of our products: all our products are based on standard dimensions of the elements. Therefore, our various product can be easily adapted in length and width. That enables us to deliver special solutions swiftly, efficiently and cost effectively using our standard products. Our products are also re-usable. That is our way of combating environmental pollution. By keeping our stocks at strategic locations, we can deliver quickly and adequately meet the challenges of our commissioning parties.

Matrix Equipment worldwide

Matrix Equipment operates in both the civil and military market. We serve the latter with our standard products via our business unit Security and Disaster Relief (SDR). Furthermore, we also deliver permanent bridges worldwide in places that are difficult to reach, for example in Sri Lanka, Ghana or Thailand. For realising this, we have a special unit: Matrix Equipment International.
