Solar Power World Features Eucalyptus Timber Mats
Solar Power World Features Eucalyptus Timber Mats was revised on January 6, 2026
Solar EPCs win or lose on how fast and safely they move people and equipment across large sites.
Eucalyptus timber mats create stable access roads and work pads that support heavy equipment while protecting soils.
A Solar Power World article shows how better matting can turn a cost center into a competitive advantage for large‑scale solar projects.
Eucalyptus timber mats give solar EPCs a way to control one of the most overlooked parts of a project. That’s how crews and equipment actually move across the site. Solar projects depend on reliable access roads and work pads. Many mat types will work. And, Eucalyptus timber mats help create that access while improving safety, schedule, and total cost of ownership.
What Solar Power World Said About Eucalyptus Timber Mats
Solar Power World’s article “Have you considered timber mats on your large-scale solar project?” makes a simple point. What differentiates solar EPCs from each other is execution on the ground rather than access to solar hardware. Because EPCs cannot control every supply chain variable, they should focus on what they can control. That is access and logistics, and matting is a key part of that control.
As the article notes, successful EPCs:
Get people and resources in and out quickly and safely.
Reduce risk of delays from stuck equipment and impassable access roads.
Turn access planning into a competitive advantage instead of a source of surprise costs.

Why Matting Matters On Large-Scale Solar Projects
Large solar projects are often built on farm fields, former industrial sites, or other soft and uneven ground. Without matting, heavy delivery trucks, pile drivers, and tracked equipment can bog down, damage soils, or create ruts that must be repaired before hand‑off.
Timber mats provide temporary roads and work pads that spread load and protect the ground. They help keep trucks and equipment moving during wet seasons and reduce the risk that a week of rain will halt your job while you wait for drier conditions or expensive repairs.
Where Eucalyptus Timber Mats Fit In Solar
World Forest Group designed its Eucalyptus timber mats to deliver strength, durability, and more mats per truck compared to many conventional mixed hardwood mats. This combination is important for solar EPCs who must cover long access roads and large work areas.
Because Eucalyptus timber mats are stronger and more standardized, it may be possible to use thinner mats while still supporting required loads. That can lower freight cost per mat, reduce handling time, and extend mat life under repeated use across multiple solar projects.
Next Steps: See How Mats Could Help Your Solar Projects
If you are planning or executing large‑scale solar projects, it may be time to look at how Eucalyptus timber mats could improve access, reduce weather‑related delays, and cut total matting cost. Better matting is one of the few levers EPCs still control fully on site.
