Markets & Industries

The base on which progress is built.

Landpac caters to large-scale infrastructure projects in a wide range of industries. High Energy Impact Compaction (HEIC) is fundamental to our work in establishing key infrastructure assets such as shipping terminals, airports, and other transport networks.

HEIC can make light work of land that other methods of compaction simply can’t touch – including reclaimed or otherwise inaccessible land – opening up new development and commercial opportunities.

Which industries do we work with?

MINING

The mining industry is the cluster of processes that are involved with extraction, management, and processing of naturally occurring solid minerals from the earth’s surface. Australia is the world’s largest producer of lithium and a global top five producer of gold, iron ore, lead, zinc, and nickel. It also has the world’s largest uranium and fourth-largest black coal resources, respectively.

The market size, measured by revenue, of the Mining industry was $501.8bn in 2022.
The Mining industry increased 39.3% in 2022.

Maritime

The Maritime industry is an intrinsic part of the Australian economy in the transportation of goods – imports and exports, as well as tourism and other value-added activities.

This industry employs over 31,000 people nationally and contributes more than $80 billion to the Australian economy each year. Australia relies on sea transport for 99% of our exports.
Including ports, terminals, and marinas.

Rehabilitation projects

Land rehabilitation is a process of restoration to bring an area of land back to its natural state after it has been damaged or degraded, making it safe for wildlife and flora as well as humans.

What is land rehabilitation after mining? The Mining Act 1992 defines rehabilitation as the treatment or management of disturbed land or water to establish a safe and stable environment.

Lack of knowledge, topography, soil conditions, high rainfall, high surface runoff, poor vegetation coverage, poor monitoring and evaluation, poor implementation and poor training on the technology use are major challenges encountering the land rehabilitation practices in an effective way.

Environmental &  Waste ManagemenT

Around 27% of Australia’s waste goes to landfill according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS). The amount of waste generated in Australia is 76 million tonnes, with around half of that – 38.5 million tonnes – being recycled.

The largest source of waste comes from the construction and demolition industry, who spends $2 billion annually on waste services each year, representing a 35% growth since 2016–2017.
The construction sector alone generates 16.8% of annual total waste, making it the second largest waste producer behind manufacturing, reports the ABS

Infrastructure

Infrastructure is defined as the basic physical systems of a business, region, or nation and often involves the production of public goods or production processes. Examples of infrastructure include communication networks, sewage, water, and school systems as well as civil development including roads, tunnels, and airport container terminals.

Australia’s largest infrastructure projects include the $16.8 billion (AUD) WestConnex 33 km traffic motorway in NSW, due for completion in 2023
The infrastructure sector represents more than 1,900 companies engaged in the civil construction industry in Australia

Residential

The residential building industry is one of Australia’s most dynamic, innovative and efficient service industries and is a key driver of the Australian economy.

The Australian residential construction industry contributes $95 billion each year to the Australian economy and drives the economic livelihood of millions
Construction is the third largest industry in Australia, producing over 8 percent of our GDP and employing roughly one million people

Recreational Sites

Sport is an important part of life in Australia. It improves our physical and mental health, benefits the economy, and helps to strengthen our national pride and international relationships.

Australia’s recreational sector is the largest and most widely dispersed recreational activity that uses a natural resource.
Sports and Physical Recreation Activities is the largest sector in the Arts and Recreation Services industry, employing 44.7% of workers.

Commercial / Industrial  Developments

The Commercial and Industrial Building Construction industry consists of firms that primarily construct non-residential buildings, such as offices, shopping centres, cinemas, restaurants, airport terminals, factories and warehouses.

The Commercial and Industrial Building Construction industry has grown over the past five years, with revenue climbing at an annualised 2.6% through the end of 2022-23 to $52.5 billion.

Forestry Industry

Australia’s forest industries support 80,000 direct jobs across the full industry value chain with an annual economic contribution of around $24 billion.

Landpac works with the industry to negate negative impacts on the environment by reducing the effects of soil degradation due to water run-off, tree felling and soil destabilisation.

Petrochemical Industry

The petrochemical industry is an industry branch that produces organic intermediate products such as refinery products, natural gas, plastic, rubber, fibre raw materials.

Petrochemicals include a wide range of products. Plastics, fibres, pesticides, fertilisers, paints, and detergents are all created using petrochemicals. Manufacturing of all types owes a large debt to the petrochemical industry.
The petrochemical industry of Australia is a significant contributor to the GDP and accounts for 13% of exports.

Power Industry

The Australian energy industry encompasses all economic activity in relation to the generation, distribution and supply of electricity and gas to end users. The Australian electricity sector has been historically dominated by coal-fired power stations, but renewables are forming a rapidly growing fraction of supply.

Renewable energy sources like hydro, solar, and wind saw a significant increase, accounting for 35% of the National Electricity Market demand. This was accompanied by a record investment in renewables, reaching 7.1 gigawatts, indicating a clear shift towards greener energy solutions.
