SAMSON mats formed a clear, stable trackway and work pads for trucks, cranes and EWPs, keeping the project on schedule while reducing rutting and environmental impact.

LOCATION
An Australian energy company needed to construct a critical section of an overhead transmission line. The problem was simple to explain but hard to solve: crews had to reach remote structures across soft, muddy ground. Each truck, crane and EWP risked sinking, churning the corridor into a huge mess and slowing the job to a crawl.
Environmental controls were tight, so bringing in truckloads of rock was not a good option and would add more clean-up later. On top of that, the outage window was short, and any delay meant extra cost and pressure on the team.
They needed a fast way to create stable access without tearing up the site, so they reached out to ENVIREX.
We recommended SAMSON mats to create a temporary access route and stable work pads beneath the transmission structures.
Once the order was confirmed, the SAMSON mats were loaded and dispatched for next-day delivery to the site. The brand new green mats were hard to miss, giving supervisors clear visual control of where vehicles should travel and where they should not.
Once on site, crews quickly laid out the mats, linking them to form a continuous track across the soft ground. There was no waiting around, just a solid, reliable surface that let trucks, cranes, EWPs and support vehicles move with confidence.
The green SAMSON mats did more than just stand out on site! They turned a messy, hard-to-access corridor into a clear, defined roadway that crews trusted.
Vehicles moved in and out without getting bogged, so the construction project stayed on schedule and within the planned outage window. Environmental impact was kept low, with far less rutting and clean-up than a rock solution would have created.
Site supervisors liked the visibility and control; crews liked the smoother ride. At pack-up, the mats were stacked and sent off, ready for the next project.
Now, SAMSON mats are firmly on the radar whenever this energy provider plans work in soft or sensitive ground.
