Innovative theory, background, and a whole new approach to Mac S-Design.

Do you design for the exposure and working conditions of today or those you expect in the future?

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.

Gawac 3.0 software, our new design software for gabion walls, enhancing long-term performance and reducing the environmental impact.

For over 140 years, we have developed solutions that enhance river ecosystem resilience including the social ability to recover quickly from catastrophic events.

Maccaferri works alongside its clients to develop, manufacture, design and supply solutions for the railway industry.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Coastal erosion is a critical issue with serious environmental and social impacts that affects a large percentage of the world’s population.

Rockfall protection and rockfall mitigation are key elements in the security and safety of buildings or people.

Disaster risk is taking on new shapes and sizes. In order to face the increasing exposure to risks, we need safer and more robust solutions.

Our ParaProducts are amongst the oldest, most tried-and-tested geogrids in the world. They offer a 120-year design life and high performance, in particular against damage and creep.
