Aviation Demands Precision Engineering

Remote airstrips and regional airfields require surfaces capable of withstanding repeated aircraft landing loads, jet blast erosion, and the precise grading tolerances that aviation safety demands. Structural failure is not an option when aircraft are involved.

Traditional paving solutions -- asphalt and concrete -- are prohibitively expensive for remote locations where aggregate materials must be hauled hundreds of kilometres. The logistics alone can exceed the cost of the runway itself, making many critical airfield projects economically unviable.

Weather and drainage are equally critical. Standing water on a runway surface creates hydroplaning risks, while poor drainage undermines base layers and accelerates structural deterioration. Airfield surfaces must shed water rapidly while maintaining load-bearing integrity through wet and dry cycles alike.

Airfield Applications

Runways

Unpaved runway stabilization for remote and regional airfields. Achieves load-bearing capacity for light to medium aircraft.

Taxiways

Stabilized taxiway surfaces connecting runways to aprons and hangars. Durable under repeated turning loads.

Shoulders & Aprons

Hardened shoulders prevent FOD (foreign object debris) and erosion. Stabilized aprons for parking and maintenance areas.
