Our projects have taken us across the globe, from the bustling highways of Australia to the icy expanses of Antarctica, Moddex are out making the world a safer place.
The beauty of our system? It’s designed to adapt to local needs and regulations, but the expertise and innovation are universally Moddex. We’ve perfected on creating solutions that are not only compliant but aesthetically pleasing to wherever they are located.
Moddex in Antarctica: Taking safety to the bottom of the world
When it comes to challenging environments, Antarctica takes the prize – it’s cold, remote, and not for the fainthearted. But this hasn’t stopped Moddex. The Scott Base Research Facility required safety railings and interconnecting walkways on the top of water tanks on site. Moddex modular, no-weld systems were perfect for the job, designed to withstand the harshest weather on the planet and ensuring quick and easy installation in extreme conditions.
Whether facing biting winds or icy surfaces, Moddex products continue to set the standard for resilience and reliability, even at the edge of the world.

Moddex in New Zealand: Bridging Safety and Innovation
Amidst the breathtaking beauty of New Zealand, Moddex was called in for a truly challenging infrastructure upgrade – Bridge 12.
The bridge faced significant safety concerns due to its deteriorating timber walkway and handrail falling below the required height standards. This deterioration necessitated immediate attention to ensure the safety of Kiwirail teams working on the bridge.
Enter Moddex – with our trademark combination of safety and innovation. We were able to offer our clip-on walkway and handrail system, KlipTread, which was specifically designed to transform bridge safety and maintenance on projects such as this.

Moddex in Papua New Guinea: Raising the Bar at Sir John Guise Stadium
In Papua New Guinea, Moddex brought its expertise to one of the nation’s most iconic sporting venues, Sir John Guise Stadium. As the stadium prepared to host major international events, safety was paramount. The Sir John Guise Outdoor Stadium required a series of upgrades, including redevelopment of the 900 seat grandstand into a 15,000 seat purpose-built athletics complex. With tight deadlines and the stadium under re-construction, limited on-site measurements were available for our brief.
Our modular handrail systems were flexible, quick to install and arrived on-site in flat pack form, enabling stadium re-construction to continue uninterrupted. New castings were designed and engineered specifically for this project to meet the high load ratings of 3kN/m required by international standards for sports stadiums as set out in the Green Guide to Safety at Sports Grounds.

And of course, Moddex in Australia: Where it all began
Descending the steep scenic riverbank of the Canning River in South Perth, Redmond Reserve is a local hidden gem of ecological, cultural and recreational significance to the locals who treasure this tranquil corner of the earth.
Seeking a modular solution for easier installation on the steep site and looking for a partner who was willing to liaise to achieve the conceptual design, the contractor turned to Moddex as their first choice.
Low-lumen LED lighting got fed through the handrailing’s tubular modules, providing an incredible aesthetic to the finished product and providing a vandal-resistant, hazard-resistant solution to otherwise more exposed methodologies.
Based on CAD documents, Moddex fabricated and supplied our modular barrier systems with precisely marked points for the electrical contractor to drill holes for the LED lighting. Certain custom designs were explicitly developed for the project by Moddex, to allow for “hidden” electrical wiring throughout the modular system.
