MAC.RO provides a flexible response to different problems, and combines industrial innovation, advanced research and project design.
MAC.RO. rockfall protection system allows the engineer to choose from a wide range of structural solutions adapted to suit the specific situation. Moreover, installations of this type are highly efficient and economic.
The classical distinction made in works of this type is between "active" and "passive" measures. Active measures act on the causes of a phenomenon and inhibit its initiation. Passive measures, on the other hand, are those that hinder or control rockfalls or avalanches to protect the infrastructure below the slopes, such as roads, railways, buildings, etc.
