Hybrid Heavy-Duty Trackway and Ground Protection

Stadia XHD-XL is a hybrid, heavy-duty trackway and ground-protection system that combines patented aluminium box-beam inserts with PPCP panels. The result: the strength of traditional trackway with the portability of man-handleable mats. It supports 12.5-tonne axle loads and static loads up to 180 t/m² (ground-dependent) and installs rapidly with no bolts, camlocks or keys.

Why organisations choose this system

• Hybrid strength, low weight: aluminium box-beams encapsulated inside PPC panels deliver higher-rated performance without heavy plant.
• Self-locking, tool-free: built-in mechanism means no nuts, bolts, pins or keys—cleaner, faster installs and reduced FOD risk.
• Fast to deploy: typical deployment ≈ 55 m² per person/hour; container-friendly logistics up to 1140 m² per 40-ft Hi-Cube.
• Built for the elements: −30 °C to +50 °C; UV- and solvent-resistant, non-corroding.
• Recyclable design: PPC panels recyclable; enclosed aluminium is recyclable and less attractive to theft.
