DURA-BASE Composite Matting System

Dura-Base provides project teams with the option to use reusable platforms and roads in place of traditional methods of trucking aggregates or building concrete pads. With a single semi-trailer can hold up to 420sqm worth of mat coverage, composite matting can reduce or replace the need for single-use materials, reducing overall landfill waste. It may help to reduce emissions from overall truck movements required to deliver, refill and remove the equivalent in aggregates and fill material.. Dura-Base mats are made of non-porous HDPE which minimises the risk of cross-contamination while working in sensitive sites. It installs rapidly, forming a protective load-spreading layer to minimise topsoil disturbance during operations, which helps to preserve any underlying plant root substructure for optimal chance of regrowth. It also prevents equipment from rutting the ground and potentially exposing acid sulfate soils to the air. By minimising ground disturbance during construction, Dura-Base reduces remediation works required after completion of the project. Dura-Base are reusable over multiple sites and projects. They are made of HDPE which are 100% recyclable after the expected lifecycle of over 15 years under standard use conditions. Methodologies using Dura-Base may minimise earthworks and ground preparations required. Laying down Dura-Base mats does not generate dust compared to the installation and top up of crushed rock pads. Dura-Base enable projects the option to build reusable roadways and working platforms with minimal ground disturbance.
