MacArmour is a 2-in-1 product which combines an homogeneous structure of steel wire rope with double twist wire mesh. The result is a unique product that has an excellent out-of-plane stiffness (punch resistance) and an outstanding tensile strength in the longitudinal and transversal direction.
MacArmour is an effective solution that maximises the serviceability of the protected infrastructure: the higher the stiffness of the rockfall protection, the lesser the risk of hampering running infrastructure after a rockfall event.
MacArmour characteristics allows the increase of the anchors spacing hence reducing the cost of the project without affecting the performance of the rockfall protection.
