Construction & Infrastructure
Construction ground protection
Construction sites demand ground stability, safety, and uninterrupted access, especially when working with heavy machinery and tight timelines.
Ground protection provides a reliable foundation for cranes, excavators, and piling rigs, while also shielding delicate surfaces like grass, soil, and buried utilities. Whether you’re navigating soft ground, managing demolition zones, or maintaining access in poor weather, ground protection keeps your site operable, compliant, and secure from the ground up.
Civil engineering ground protection
Civil engineering projects can face complex logistical challenges, from unpredictable ground conditions to strict regulatory and safety requirements. Ground protection helps create safe, stable working platforms and access routes to reduce surface wear and ensure your project remains safe and on schedule.
Pipeline work often involves unstable, waterlogged, or remote terrain. Ground protection enables safe and efficient movement of heavy machinery while creating staging areas and temporary roadways to reduce project delays.
Additionally, this helps create the best environment for your equipment and keeps teams working with confidence across all site conditions.
Energy & Industrial
Energy projects often take place in complex, high-risk environments, from tidal zones to soft rural ground to fragile ecosystems.
Ground protection ensures safe access and operation for heavy equipment, drilling rigs, and support vehicles across unstable, waterlogged, or ecologically sensitive terrain.
Solar & wind farms ground protection
Solar and wind energy installations are often located in remote, exposed areas with difficult access and uneven ground. Ground protection allows heavy materials, like turbines, to move and be operated on safely without delays.
As well as this, having reliable access roads and work zones supports construction and long-term maintenance, helping renewable energy projects stay on time and on budget.
Land Access
Outdoor events and festivals, especially those with hundreds, if not thousands, of attendees, are prone to getting muddy, which creates an unsafe environment for everyone.
To stop this from happening, walkway mats are used to provide stable, non-slip routes for pedestrians and those using mobility aids, while trackway systems help protect grassy or muddy areas from foot traffic and small vehicles.
Forestry operations require careful navigation of natural landscapes, where safety, access, and environmental protection are all top priorities.
Ground protection mats allow machinery to move safely across uneven or soft terrain while minimising damage to the forest floor. They help prevent vehicles from sinking, reduce fire risks in dry seasons, and maintain reliable access throughout the year, even in remote or weather-affected areas.
