Rockfall control is a critical necessity in areas with steep slopes, rocky embankments, or unstable hillsides. To address this issue, active surface reinforcement systems with high-strength polyester geogrids or galvanized steel meshes represent effective, safe, and highly adaptable solutions.They are used to prevent rockfalls and maintain ground stability. In particular, both materials offer excellent reinforcement capacity. However, their final selection is determined based on the specific geotechnical, climatic, and operational conditions of each project.

Rockfall Control with Biaxial Polyester Meshes – Costa Verde, Lima, Peru.
Slope Stabilization – Costa Verde, Lima, Peru.
To stabilize the exposed cliffs of Costa Verde, a highly durable technical solution was implemented, combining metal meshes with passive anchors and green geomats. This technology effectively controlled the falling of rock material in an area highly exposed to humidity, salinity, and climate changes, ensuring the protection of the coastal road infrastructure. The green geomats not only mitigated surface erosion from early stages but also promoted natural revegetation, visually integrating the slopes into the urban landscape. The ease of installation, along with its low environmental impact and long-term sustainability, positions this solution as an efficient and functional alternative, without compromising safety or the aesthetics of the surroundings.
Rockfall Control with Biaxial Polyester Meshes – Costa Verde, Lima, Peru.
On the cliffs of the Costa Verde, a system of biaxial polyester geomeshes was implemented as an effective rockfall protection solution, ensuring controlled guidance of rock detachment and significantly reducing the risk of impact on the expressway.These meshes, characterized by their high tensile strength, structural flexibility, and regular openings, allowed for the redirection of rockfalls toward safe dissipation areas without compromising infrastructure or road safety. Their adaptability to uneven surfaces, along with proven durability against demanding weather conditions, positions this solution as an optimal and efficient alternative, low-maintenance, and suitable for the active protection of coastal slopes in challenging urban environments.
