Solution
Diamond Grid™ saved 65% over traditional concrete, with a tailored pavement plan, proper subbase prep and efficient installation.
Outcome
A robust, low-maintenance surface that handles heavy loads and lifts operational efficiency.

Heavy vehicle workshop slab

2,500 m²
Challenge
A durable workshop floor for heavy mining equipment, facing high costs and long construction times with traditional concrete.
Solution
Diamond Grid™ was installed over compacted road base and completed in 2–3 days.
Outcome
Operational within 7 days, reducing costs and disruption.

Industrial lay-down area

12,000 m²
Challenge
A reliable all-weather pavement to support heavy machinery and forklifts, minimising downtime.
Solution
A Diamond Grid™ unbound pavement gave a cost-effective, tough surface with quick installation.
Outcome
A low-maintenance pavement, operational within 7 days.

CHPP pavement solution

Challenge
A sealed pavement around the fixed plant to improve safety, manage coal spills and reduce water accumulation with minimal operational disruption.
Solution
Diamond Grid™ delivered a 78% cost saving over concrete, with quick sectional installation for a sealed, easy-to-clean surface.
Outcome
A safer, low-maintenance pavement installed with minimal disruption.

Holiday park turf stabilisation

1,050 m²
Challenge
A reinforced grass surface to withstand heavy foot and vehicle traffic while keeping a natural look.
Solution
Grass-filled Diamond Grid™ was installed for stability, erosion control and improved drainage.
Outcome
A long-lasting surface that preserves natural grass while preventing rutting and wear during peak use.

Remote private access road

350 m
Challenge
A sandy road with steep inclines needed a durable solution to improve access, withstand harsh weather and minimise maintenance.
Solution
Diamond Grid™ was installed and filled with aggregate, improving surface stability, load-bearing capacity and erosion resistance.
Outcome
Quick installation, improved terrain stability and reduced long-term maintenance.
