Plate Compactors are used for compaction of materials like gravel and Ginninderra granite for driveways, footpaths or pathways and parking areas. A Plate Compactor is useful for compaction of back fill or when preparing to lay artificial turf. Compact sand with a Plate Compactor prior to laying pavers for a driveway or outdoor hardstand area. Our Plate Compactors have lifting points and can be craned or forked on and off your ute, trailer or truck with whatever other machine is nearby.
