The industry standard for mining, heavy construction & crane operations
Our flagship product. The 19mm thickness dominates the global HDPE ground mat market with 36.8% market share — and for good reason. It handles 80+ tonnes of concentrated load, resists chemical spills, and lasts over a decade with proper use. This is the spec Australian mining contractors rely on.

The smart choice for pipeline projects, pedestrian access & light vehicle traffic
When you don't need 80-tonne capacity but still want reliable ground protection, the 12mm spec delivers 40+ tonnes of capacity at 35% less weight and cost than the 19mm. Ideal for utility crews, pipeline ROWs, and temporary event access — where handling speed and transport efficiency matter as much as strength.
