The city is strategically positioned near major transport arteries such as the M6, M54, A449, A41, and A454, facilitating efficient logistics for complex aviation projects across the City of Wolverhampton Council area. While the region is dominated by major commercial hubs, the local infrastructure supports a diverse range of aviation activities, from private airfields to military operations. Stardom operates from its base at Trident Business Park in Nuneaton, CV11 4PN, allowing for rapid deployment to sites throughout the West Midlands. The company brings decades of management experience to the sector, understanding that airfield surfacing demands a level of precision and durability far exceeding standard road networks. This proximity ensures that Stardom can respond quickly to the unique operational constraints and security protocols inherent to working on active airfields and military bases in the area.

What We Offer in Wolverhampton

The surfacing of runways, taxiways, aprons, and aircraft stands requires rigorous adherence to aviation standards due to the extreme dynamic loads imposed by aircraft operations. Stardom Ltd employs a fleet of Vögele pavers, the world's leading manufacturer in this sector, to deliver machine-laid asphalt with exceptional precision. The company utilizes the Vögele Super 1800-5, a highway-class paver with a 10m width and a capacity of 700 tonnes per hour, alongside the 8m wide Super 1803-3i and the compact 4.5m Super 1303-3i midi paver. These machines are selected for their ability to achieve the tight tolerances and uniform compaction necessary to prevent pavement deformation under heavy aircraft weights. The team applies specific material specifications designed to withstand fuel spills, high temperatures, and intense friction. All works are managed by a team of over 20 skilled professionals, all holding CSCS cards, ensuring that every layer of the pavement meets the stringent quality management systems of ISO 9001. This technical approach guarantees a surface capable of supporting the heavy traffic of modern aviation without premature failure.
