Engineered with structural precision, our leading helideck profile configurations provide unmatched stability and quick assembly capabilities tailored for high-demand projects.
Indonesia, the largest archipelagic state in the world, spans over 17,000 islands with major economic sectors clustered in offshore oil and gas extraction, dense high-rise commercial developments in the Greater Jakarta area, and isolated mining activities in regions like Kalimantan, Sumatra, and Papua. Due to the country's geographical complexity, aviation infrastructure acts as a vital lifeline. Helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS), corporate transport, and maritime logistics require exceptionally reliable and compliant helicopter landing zones.
Traditionally, helipads in Southeast Asia were constructed from concrete or structural steel. However, tropical marine settings present critical engineering challenges: extreme relative humidity, high salt spray (C5-M atmospheric corrosivity), and frequent seismic activity. Modern engineers are rapidly transitioning to structural aluminum alloys (specifically 6000-series Al-Mg-Si alloys). Aluminum helidecks offer a dead load reduction of up to 60-70% compared to concrete. This structural weight relief significantly decreases the overturning moment for offshore platforms and reduces structural retrofitting costs for aging urban skyscrapers in seismically active cities like Jakarta.

For offshore vessels (FSOs, FPSOs) and drillships operating in the Natuna Sea or Makassar Strait, structural resilience is crucial. The combination of structural wind loads, ship motions, and helicopter landing impacts requires safety equipment engineered with high-strength structural profiles. Additionally, perimeter protection is mandatory under global and local maritime safety laws. Helideck perimeter safety nets must withstand dynamic drop tests and environmental weathering without degradation.
| Specification Parameter | Aluminum Helidecks (Alloy 6082-T6 / 6061-T6) | Structural Steel Decks (S355/S275) | Reinforced Concrete Decks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dead Weight Impact | Extremely Low (~70-90 kg/m²) | Moderate (~180-250 kg/m²) | Very High (>450 kg/m²) |
| Corrosion Resistance | Excellent self-passivating oxide layer. No painting needed. | Poor. Requires periodic marine grit blasting & painting. | Subject to carbonation and rebar corrosion from salt. |
| Installation Timeline | Fast. Modular interlocking planks, bolted on-site. | Medium. Heavy hot-work welding and NDT inspection. | Slow. Extensive wet curing, formwork, and shoring. |
| Seismic Performance | Excellent. Low mass reduces dynamic inertial force. | Moderate. Subject to structural fatigue. | Poor. High mass increases earthquake shear stresses. |
| Seawater Spray Lifetime | 30+ Years with minimal structural maintenance | 5-8 Years before coating breakdown occurs | Varies. High risk of spalling in marine tidal zones. |
Leveraging direct manufacturing advantages to deliver premium aluminum solutions worldwide.
Established in 2015 and located in Foshan City, Guangdong (the aluminum fabrication capital of China), LvXing Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. hosts an advanced R&D and engineering department. We specialize in transforming demanding architectural and aviation design requirements into structural reality.
We source structural-grade Fenglu aluminum, providing a diverse catalog of custom profiles. Our extrusion facilities, with press capabilities ranging from 800T to 20,000T, process high-strength alloys in 1xxx, 2xxx, 3xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx, and 7xxx series. Our production capability reaches cross-sectional widths of up to 1.2 meters and single-profile continuous lengths of 28 meters.
These oversized profiles are critical for fabricating modular helideck planks with fewer joints, optimizing load distribution. Our operations are fully certified under GB/T19001-2016/ISO9001:2015 quality management systems, and we have achieved the highly sought-after "Special Aluminium Materials for Aerospace" Certificate.
We hold the dedicated "Special Aluminium Materials for Aerospace" certificate, validating our structural integrity under high-fatigue loading conditions.
Our heavy extrusion lines handle multi-cavity profiles up to 1.2 meters wide and 28 meters long, reducing joints for stronger deck panels.
Our engineering team has 15 years of industry experience, turning client specifications into verified, high-performance physical structures.
Tailored engineering layouts that meet the distinct environmental and operational challenges of the region.
Offshore oil platforms, FPSOs, and marine drilling rigs require helipads that resist constant salt spray, strong winds, and structural movement. Our marine-grade 6082-T6 aluminum planks provide excellent corrosion resistance. Paired with high-strength stainless steel 316 helideck perimeter safety nets, our assemblies prevent accidents while resisting aggressive corrosion.
Rooftop helipads in Jakarta must meet strict structural weight limits and earthquake building codes. Heavy concrete helipads place high structural loads on buildings. By using lightweight, high-strength aluminum profiles, building developers can reduce structural loads, cut reinforcement costs, and speed up building approvals.
Accessing remote interior mining sites often requires helicopter transport. Transporting materials and machinery to these locations presents severe logistical challenges. Our modular aluminum helipads are designed for simple shipping in standard containers and quick assembly on-site with basic tools and no heavy welding equipment.
Emergency medical services require landing zones that are immediately safe, slip-resistant, and low-maintenance. Our customized aluminum profiles feature knurled, non-slip surfaces with built-in drainage channels. These systems prevent water pooling during heavy monsoon rains, ensuring safe operations in wet conditions.
