The Right Steps to Overcome Landslides at the Marriot Luxury Hotel, Labuan Bajo using MSE Wall Solutions from Maccaferri

Labuan Bajo, a fast-growing tourism destination in Indonesia, is now at a striking development focal point. One of the things that supports the development of Labuan Bajo is the construction of the Marriot Luxury Hotel.

The construction of the Marriot Luxury Hotel in Labuan Bajo brings hope for economic development. However, behind the construction of this luxury hotel, there is a serious problem that must be addressed immediately. The large amount of leftover construction soil dumped into the dormitory area has created a risk of landslides around the basin area where the Ephemeral River flows. This could threaten the security of the area around the dormitories where workers’ residences are planned to be built in that area.

However, every challenge holds opportunities for innovation. The hotel quickly acted to find a solution that not only addressed the problem quickly, but was also sustainable. It’s time for Maccaferri’s MSE Wall Solutions to step in.

MSE Wall is not just a wall, but a real representation of technological intelligence that respects nature. By using the Terramesh® System, anchored gabions consisting of double-twisted steel wire provide a sturdy and flexible structure, able to withstand soil pressure steadily. Equipped with a woven polyester geogrid (MacGrid™️ WG), this solution strengthens the structure and increases soil stability to maintain the safety of the area.

To prevent the threat of water infiltration, geocomposite drainage (MacDrain™️) is installed behind the Terramesh®, while Mactex® acts as a filter layer to maintain the integrity of the filling material and prevent erosion. The implementation process not only takes into account structural stability, but also environmental sustainability and aesthetical aspect.

The advantages of the MSE Wall Solution lie not only in its powerful performance, but also in its ease of implementation. More cost-effective than traditional methods, this solution also reduces construction time, accelerating the benefits experienced by local communities. By using environmentally friendly materials, the Marriot hotel in Labuan Bajo not only overcomes the problem of landslides, but also paves the way towards sustainable development.

Through its partnership with Maccaferri, the Marriot hotel in Labuan Bajo has proven that responsible development is not a pipe dream, but a reality that can be realized. With MSE Wall Solutions, we not only strengthen the physical structure, but also the foundation of sustainable living together. In maintaining Labuan Bajo, we not only maintain the tourist destination, but also pass it on to future generations in a better way.
