SKU GM876800
The Dura-Base ground mat 800 series is a heavy duty composite mat designed to deliver maximum ground protection with reduced weight. Offering the same strength and durability as traditional mats, it improves transport efficiency, simplifies handling, and provides reliable performance across demanding site conditions.
The Dura-Base ground mat 800 series has a thickness of 10.2cm and is engineered for projects that require high-performance ground protection with improved logistics and handling efficiency. Manufactured from high-density polyethylene using a patented formulation, this dura-base composite mat delivers the same load-bearing strength as traditional mats while reducing weight by 15%.
With a size of 2.44m x 4.27m, DuraBase mat it's particularly suitable for large-scale operations where transport costs, manual handling, and deployment speed are critical. The reduced weight allows for easier positioning on site without compromising durability or performance.
- 15% lighter design improves transport efficiency and reduces handling effort
- 600 psi (40 kg/cm²) compressive strength supports heavy plant and machinery
- Non-permeable surface prevents contamination and environmental risk
- Two-sided usable design increases flexibility and extends product lifespan
- Single-piece HDPE construction ensures durability in demanding conditions
- 100% recyclable material supports sustainable project requirements
The durabase ground mat is suitable for use across construction, infrastructure, utilities, and access projects. It provides effective soil stabilisation on all ground types, helping to maintain safe and stable working conditions.
Unlike traditional timber alternatives, this ground protection mat solution is non-absorbent, allowing full cleaning and decontamination between uses. This reduces environmental risk and supports compliance on sensitive sites.

Dura-base 800 series mats are designed for global use in extreme environments, including hot, wet, and dry conditions. The HDPE material offers excellent resistance to environmental stress while maintaining structural integrity.
Typical operating temperatures should not exceed 66°C, with intermittent exposure up to 82°C. The mats have also been successfully used in temperatures as low as -34.4°C without loss of performance.
The manufacturing process ensures zero material waste, with all scrap reintroduced into production. This supports sustainability goals while maintaining consistent product quality.
