Stage the perfect laydown area without the fuss on removal.
The Challenge Temporary laydown yards and staging areas on unprepared ground deteriorate rapidly under material storage loads and vehicle traffic — creating mud, instability, and logistics inefficiency.
The Solution Composite mat hardstanding creates stable, all-weather staging areas, boneyards, and laydown yards without the cost and permanence of crushed rock or concrete.
Staging areas for plant and materials are often on unprepared ground that cannot sustain repeated loading.
Conventional hardstanding of staging areas causes long-term damage to underlying land and soil.
Poorly prepared staging areas reduce logistics efficiency and slow equipment and material turnaround.
Deploy rapid access systems that protect the environment while supporting heavy loads.
Engineered composite mats distribute weight effectively, preventing bogging and ground damage.
Quick installation and removal means minimal downtime and maximum productivity.
Our systems provide reliable access in any weather conditions, keeping projects on schedule.
Durable construction allows for multiple deployments, reducing overall project costs.
Real-world examples of how composite matting solves access challenges for staging areas projects.
For Adele’s first ever Brisbane concert at The Gabba, JWA provided a man-portable Rhino Mat solution. This created a temporary staging area that protected the sensitive stadium grounds during the massive event setup.
Sydney, NSW
A 4-day large-scale sporting event in Sydney featured a unique car race held on an island. Dura-Base mats were chosen to provide a high-performance surface capable of handling high-speed manoeuvres, replacing generic light-duty options that were insufficient.
Stockyard Hill, VIC
The Stockyard Hill Wind Farm project involved connecting over 74km of transmission lines across challenging and sensitive terrain. Dura-Base composite matting was used extensively across several scopes including construction access tracks, turbine construction, and trenching. This case study focuses on the transmission line works and the environmental protection measures implemented.
Sunshine Coast, QLD
The Sunshine Coast Solar Farm project faced challenges with a low-lying, flood-prone site during the wet season. Dura-Base mats provided essential temporary access for 100t cranes, crane lift platforms, and mud-free staging areas, enabling the project to be delivered safely and on time.
