Stadia XHD-XL: A Versatile Solution for Construction, Utilities, and Events

Stadia XHD and Stadia XHD XL - heavy duty modular site access
Stadia XHD XL Portable Trackway and Ground Protection

Trackway systems have become an indispensable bit of kit for businesses operating in the construction, utilities, and events sectors. Typically manufactured in aluminium or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), these durable, and easily deployable systems offer a multitude of benefits, making them a preferred choice for temporary access solutions

Despite being often called “lightweight,” traditional trackways and road mats for heavy-duty applications are surprisingly heavy and difficult to handle. Their weight and bulkiness make transportation and deployment a significant challenge.

Enter Stadia XHD-XL, our innovative hybrid trackway and ground protection system. This revolutionary solution combines the strength and durability of heavy-duty trackways with the portability of lightweight mats. Our patented design integrates robust aluminium box beams within a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) outer layer, delivering exceptional performance without sacrificing ease of use.

Key Benefits of Stadia XHD-XL:

  • Superior strength and load-bearing capacity: Designed to withstand heavy machinery and equipment, Stadia XHD-XL provides a stable and secure surface, even in challenging terrain
  • Lightweight and easy to transport: At 36 kg for the largest panel (2.8m x 0.5m), the hybrid, lightweight construction facilitates easy transportation and deployment, minimising labour costs and time.
  • Quick installation and removal: Interlocking panels allow for rapid installation and removal, reducing project downtime and increasing efficiency. No camlocks, bolts or additional tools required.
  • Versatility and adaptability: Suitable for a wide range of applications, including construction sites, utility corridors, energy infrastructure projects and event ground protection.  
  • Environmentally friendly: Aluminum and HDPE are both recyclable materials, making Stadia XHD-XL an eco-friendly choice for temporary access solutions.   

Typical Applications:

  • Construction: 
    • Creating temporary roads and walkways on construction sites   
    • Providing access to remote or challenging locations
    • Protecting sensitive ground surfaces
  • Utilities: 
    • Accessing underground infrastructure for maintenance and repair
    • Deploying crews and equipment to remote locations
    • Maintaining access during emergency situations
  • Energy: 
    • Constructing temporary roads and walkways for wind farms and solar power plants   
    • Providing access to oil and gas pipelines and refineries
    • Supporting heavy equipment in power generation and transmission projects
  • Events, Concerts and Festivals:
    • Vehicle access: Creating temporary roadways for event vehicles (trucks, delivery vans, staff cars) to access the site, especially in muddy or soft ground conditions.  
    • Emergency access: Providing access routes for emergency vehicles (ambulances, fire trucks) in case of unforeseen incidents.
    • Ground protection in high-traffic areas: Protecting sensitive ground (lawns, flower beds) from damage caused by heavy foot traffic, especially around stages, VIP areas, and vendor booths.
    • Protecting historical sites: When events are held on historic grounds, trackway can prevent damage to delicate surfaces.  
    • Creating level surfaces for event structures: Providing a stable and level base for tents, stages, marquees, and other temporary structures. Creating safe and stable walkways and seating areas for VIP guests.
    • Car Parks / temporary parking: Creating temporary parking areas on soft ground, preventing vehicles from getting stuck. Trackway can help improve drainage in muddy car parks, keeping vehicles from getting bogged down.
    • Pedestrian walkways: Providing safe and stable walkways for attendees, especially in muddy or uneven terrain.
    • Access for disabled attendees: Creating accessible pathways for wheelchairs and mobility scooters.   

By using trackway effectively, businesses can:

  • Minimise ground damage: Protect the venue and surrounding environment.   
  • Improve safety: Create safer and more accessible pathways for attendees and staff.
  • Enhance experience: Provide a more comfortable and enjoyable experience for all.
  • Streamline logistics: Improve the efficiency of setup, breakdown, and operations.

Choosing the Right Trackway System:

Selecting the appropriate trackway system depends on factors such as:

  • Load capacity: The weight of vehicles and equipment that will be using the trackway.
  • Ground conditions: The type of terrain and its stability.
  • Project requirements: The specific needs and constraints of the project.

By carefully considering these factors, businesses can choose the most suitable Stadia XHD / XL trackway system, or combine the two to meet their unique requirements.

In conclusion, Stadia XHD-XL offers a reliable and efficient solution for temporary access in the construction, utilities, energy and events industries. The system’s unique versatility, durability, and ease of use makes Stadia XHD-XL an invaluable asset for businesses seeking to optimise their operations and minimise environmental impact.
