Multiple Locations, VIC
FODS Trackout Control Mats, an innovative approach to sediment control on construction site entrances, are in high demand in its US home ground. But how do they perform in Australian conditions and workplace standards? We put them to the test on two of Victoria s major road and rail infrastructure projects.
Kooragang Island, Port of Newcastle, NSW
How composite swamp mats provided temporary access into mangrove wetlands with known acid sulfate soils. The project required careful environmental management to protect the sensitive wetland ecosystem while enabling essential geotechnical investigations.
Sydney, NSW
The New M5 twin underground motorway tunnels required a stable working platform for structural works. Dura-Base mats were instrumental in suppressing dangerous silica dust and providing access for heavy machinery in the confined tunnel environment.
Multiple locations, QLD
The Australia Pacific LNG Project faced 14 months of geotechnical investigations in extremely sloppy ground conditions with daily tidal fluctuations. Dura-Base mats created a firm platform for drilling rigs, enabling over 100 core penetration tests.
Port Moresby, PNG
The Korobosea rig site and Moro base camp were among the first locations in PNG to utilise Dura-Base Composite Matting for oilfield rig mats, breaking a 50-year trend of using timber. This innovative method provided a solid footing for campsite flooring and rig locations, leading to the successful completion of the drilling program.

Defence armed forces required a temporary camp to conduct training in a remote desert environment characterised by barren, dusty, and sandy terrain. Dura-Base mats were deployed to create a stable 5,000sqm surface for the camp.
Townsville, QLD
The $225 million Ross River Solar Farm faced severe ground instability due to flash flooding. Dura-Base mats provided a stable, temporary platform for piling works, ensuring the installation of 450,000 solar panels continued despite the wet conditions.
Western Australia
How composite matting was used to support works at a Class A Nature Reserve. This environmentally sensitive project required the highest standards of ground protection.
Gold Coast, QLD
The opening ceremony for the 2018 Commonwealth Games premiered on the 4th of April at Carrara Stadium, Gold Coast and was in need of event matting. JWA provided comprehensive ground protection solutions for this world-class sporting event.
Brisbane, QLD
The construction of Brisbane Airport s new runway included the installation of HIAL runway lights. Dura-Base mats were utilised as a stable piling platform for a 280-tonne crane operating with a vibro-hammer, mitigating wet weather risks.
Undisclosed
Dura-Base mats were subjected to rigorous tank trials to test their suitability for military use. The mats provided a robust surface capable of withstanding the immense weight and abrasive tracks of heavy military vehicles.
Multiple Locations, VIC
The dangerous and congested crossing between Skye and Overton Roads in Frankston required a removal solution that improved safety and reduced congestion. Dura-Base mats provided essential temporary access in this constricted, high-traffic environment.
