Specialist rail plant hire and wet hire solutions for rail construction, civil infrastructure, maintenance and shutdown projects across Australia.
Our modern fleet supports projects of every size. More importantly, our experienced operators understand the demands of working safely within live rail environments. As a result, clients receive both reliable equipment and practical industry expertise.
Whether you require a single excavator or a coordinated fleet, Matrix delivers safe, efficient and dependable plant solutions.
Plant Hire Designed for Rail & Civil Infrastructure
Unlike general equipment hire companies, Matrix specialises in supplying plant for rail infrastructure and civil construction projects.
Our equipment regularly supports:
Formation rehabilitation
Ballast installation
Earthworks
Shutdown works
Because our operators understand rail environments, they integrate quickly into existing project teams while maintaining high safety standards.
Wet Hire That Adds Value
Hiring machinery is only part of the solution.
Equally important is having experienced operators who understand rail construction, site safety and project productivity.
Matrix provides wet hire, meaning every machine can be supplied with a qualified operator. Consequently, projects benefit from improved efficiency while reducing mobilisation and training requirements.
Our operators work closely with clients, supervisors and other contractors to maintain safe and productive work sites.

Why clients rely on us Downtime on a rail project is expensive, and unreliable equipment or inexperienced operators are two of the biggest causes of it. Our fleet is maintained to a high standard, and our wet-hire operators bring real rail and civil experience - not just a licence, but an understanding of the environment they're working in. Whether you need a single excavator for a short drainage job or ongoing plant support across a multi-month program, we scale with your project.
