#safetyisournature: #geobrugg systems have to withstand completely other challenges. For example, to keep large rocks from breaking out. So there's no need to frown 😉 #naturalhazards #slopestabilization #safety Instagram repost from @pushkarcool8150 Thanks for sharing this!👍

A Quarter of a Century - This special anniversary reminds us that Geobrugg has been active in North America since before 1989*: Erik Rorem, Business Development Manager, is celebrating 25 years with Geobrugg! Erik started with Geobrugg North America in 1994 in sales, and then was President & General Manager until 2014. Today, Erik is our expert in underground mining projects and assists our sales staff with finding acceptance of new products and markets . Everyone help in congratulating Erik! It’s been great to have Erik with us. *) The world's first 1:1 rockfall tests with flexible barriers were carried out in 1989 in California under the leadership of CALTRANS with our first generation of barriers. **) Picture with "whale net" - Erik is at the very right

Challenges in Slope Repair

Sustainable: We did this #slopestabilization in 2014: https://www.foresternetwork.com/erosion-control/soil-erosion/article/21080477/challenges-in-slope-repair Details: G65/3mm #TECCO mesh, 1'200 ft boundary ropes, 536 P33-40 spike plates, galvanized soil nails

#mesh-art or "méchant" ?

This report by Rai, the major Italian TV station, shows from minute 2:30 how #Geobrugg tests rockfall barriers. It also explains why our high-tensile nets are so important for #naturalhazards mitigation and how the installation of #rockfallbarriers (mostly Tecco #slopestabilzation) in Italy is being carried out. For those who don't speak Italian - the pictures are self-explanatory: https://youtu.be/jJdXvSVSFeA?list=LL0fIGi3JdHJpFbnFqIKryoQ&t=142

What an incredible picture, Jonathon shared with us! Looks like it was taken during a TECCO®/MINAX® rockfall drape installation in a quarry. Jonathon, I hope you will still experience many of these working days. If you do this by installing #Geobrugg systems - so much the better ;) Take care...
