Maccaferri New Zealand products

Prevention of rockfalls is often extremely difficult owing to site access and the extent of the instability. The concept behind a protection system is the combination of risk analysis and the right choice of systems. To respond to the different problems associated with instability of rock faces, Maccaferri has developed a range of Rockfall mitigation systems to meet these specific requirements and to assist the designer in the selection of products to be used.  A key distinction must be made between `active` and `passive` protection systems.

Maccaferri can offer you different solutions to suit your changing applications or council requirements. Each solution will have its own merits, whether its long and low or short and deep, needs pretreatment etc. We can help with your design. With an Infiltration system stormwater enters the VersiTank or EcoAID structures (underground) to soak away. As the stormwater fills up the VersiTank / EcoAID structure, the stormwater can soak out into the surrounding soils through the geotextile lined walls and base recharging the surrounding natural soils and water tables rather than pooling or causing runoff problems on the surfaces above.
