The Evolution of Geosynthetics: from the origins to the modern advanced solutions
For over 100 years we have been working alongside clients to develop nature-inclusive engineering solutions that can meet the needs of the present while anticipating the needs of the future
Beavers, badgers and other burrowing animals can sometimes cause fairly large damage when dig into bank slopes, along dykes or in road/railway embankments.
The design of natural, sound solutions for river bank protection
For over 140 years, we have developed solutions that enhance river ecosystem resilience including the social ability to recover quickly from catastrophic events.
Pre-assembled earth retaining systems: the TerraMesh family
For over 100 years we have been working every day to develop nature-inclusive engineering solutions that can meet the needs of the present while anticipating the needs of the future.
Decades of experience led Maccaferri to design, manufacture and supply rockfall protection systems for some of the most important infrastructure in the world.
Over the last few decades, the world has been rapidly urbanizing. According to the United Nations, in 1950, only 30% of the world’s population lived in urban areas: now, that proportion grew to 55% and it is expected to reach 70% by 2050.
Prefilled solutions for easy and safe underwater applications
When it comes to river works and coastal protection, the underwater implementation of solutions can be challenging. Our gabions and mattresses have proved to be excellent solutions: the idea to simplify their underwater installation while maintaining their efficacy led to the development of new solutions.
How to prevent soil erosion while promoting the establishment of vegetation
Soil erosion becomes a serious issue not only for the physical removal of topsoil, but also from an environmental perspective. Deterioration of the topsoil can cause loss of biodiversity, flooding by poor water holding capacity and an unbalanced exchange of CO2 with the atmosphere. Vegetation plays a key role in soil erosion prevention, therefore its growth must be preserved.
How HELLOMAC turns a rockfall system into a smart protection
HELLOMAC is the brand new solution which provides our client with real-time connection to rockfall protection systems. It is an alert system for safeguarding lives, infrastructures and buildings protected by any kind of barriers, able to detect events (boulders, stresses, sagging, etc.) and sending real-time notifications via APP, email, SMS.
