When compared with traditional aggregate designs project cost savings can exceed 30%. Additional savings are obtained through a reduction in preliminary costs associated with programme reductions. Maintenance free Surface Armouring designs offer further cost savings of 25% over a two-year lifetime.

A single gang can enhance an area of 3,000m2 or half a kilometre of haul road per day. Multiple teams can be mobilised to complete areas exceeding 10,000m2 per day subject to programme requirements. This is achieved through the use of unique plant and processes, reducing the number of operations required to complete works. A reduced reliance on aggregate means programme is not dictated by the delivery of raw materials.

The number of vehicles required to undertake works is considerably reduced, this decreases congestion and local community interruption. Health and safety improvements are obtained on site as less heavy vehicle movements take place in the area, there is a reduced need for large stockpiles and the requirement for tipping plant is reduced.

Geosynthetic materials made from non-recyclable plastics are not required when using SUREGROUND™. Traditional aggregate designs often require more than one layer of plastic geosynthetics which are hard to remove at decommissioning stage and is often left within soils; this has negative effects for both the local ecosystem and future soil quality.

The number of plant items and processes interfacing with site personnel and the public is reduced. Management of on-site health & safety is improved throughout the installation operation and surfaces are less susceptible to rutting or potholes which can be the cause of injuries. Ankle sprains are one of the most common causes of absenteeism for site staff within the United Kingdom.
