dedicated warehouse used to store fireworks prior to and during the event. Given the nature of the stored materials, the key challenge was to provide effective blast and fragmentation containment, protecting nearby assets, personnel, and event infrastructure in the unlikely case of an accidental ignition. The solution needed to be rapidly deployable, adaptable to the available site layout, and capable of using locally available fill material, while ensuring a robust and proven level of protection within a limited installation timeframe.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<div class=\"container-full text-bocolor-block-green\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-12\">\n            <div class=\"container box-container\">\n                <div class=\"row\">\n                    <div class=\"col-12\">\n                        <h3>Solution<\/h3>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>    \n    <\/div>\n        <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-12\">\n            <div class=\"container box-container\">\n                <div class=\"row\">\n                    <div class=\"col-12 content\">\n                        <p>Maccaferri\u2019s Defencel\u00ae MAC (EBS MAC) defensive barrier system was selected to create a secure protective enclosure around the fireworks storage warehouse. The modular, multi-cellular units were quickly deployed and filled on site using local material, forming a high-mass containment barrier designed to absorb blast energy and retain debris. The Defencel MAC system provided a flexible and scalable protective solution, allowing the barrier height and thickness to be adjusted to the specific risk level and site constraints. Its proven performance in blast and force-protection applications ensured a safe, durable, and efficient protection system, meeting the stringent safety requirements of a large-scale public event such as Middle Beast.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div><div class=\"wp-block-mac-container-block box-container\"><div class=\"container\"><h2>Used Products<\/h2><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12 col-sm-12 col-md-12 col-lg-3 col-xl-3 col-xxl-3\"><div class=\"wp-block-mac-card-new-block block-latest-news-container\"><div class=\"card\"><div class=\"content-images\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"box-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maccaferri.com\/ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Defencell-MAC_4.jpg\" alt=\"EBS MAC\" title=\"EBS MAC\" \/><\/div><div class=\"card-body\"><h6>EBS MAC<\/h6><span class=\"abstract\">Using our expertise in gabion mesh, we have developed a high-quality cellular containment structure, EBS MAC previously known as DefenCell MAC,\u202fto pro<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maccaferri.com\/ae\/products\/ebs-mac\/\" class=\"cta\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"EBS MAC\">View\n                           <span class=\"text\" value=\"\" \/>\n                           <\/a><div data-post-id=\"84172\" class=\"star \" title=\"Add to wishlist\"><span class=\"material-symbols-rounded starrate\">star<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!--usedproducts-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maccaferri\u2019s Defencel\u00ae MAC (EBS MAC) defensive barrier system was selected to create a secure protective enclosure around the fireworks storage war<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":85780,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","stories-category":[],"stories-tag":[],"class_list":["post-85798","stories","type-stories","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"products":[84172],"applications":[79660,79660],"solutions":[79686],"sectors":[79591]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.0 (Yoast SEO v27.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Middle Beast - Maccaferri Middle East<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Explore our Success Stories: Middle Beast.
