On new housing and commercial developments the need for robust retaining systems is ever present. Increasingly, the appearance of the structure plays a significant role. Gabions constructed to a high standard and faced with local stone can deliver a structure that not only looks good but also reflects the natural environment. Where required, Terramesh® combines the aesthetics of a gabion wall with the additional strength of reinforced soil.
For an equally attractive finish, reinforced segmental block walls, developed in the United States over 25 years ago, can be offered with a split-face finish in a range of colours. Timber Crib structures, suitable for low height walls and landscaping, complete the range of retaining systems offered by Maccaferri.
If you require assistance with your scheme our team is available to provide engineering designs and technical advice.
