Protection Systems: Made From High-Tensile Steel Wire

PROTECTION SYSTEMS
MADE FROM HIGH-TENSILE STEEL WIRE
1
WE HAVE A
LONG TRADITION
OF SAFETY.
For more than 65 years we have been producing systems made from high-tensile steel
wire that provide reliable protection for vulnerable objects. Initially, we developed solutions
to provide protection against natural hazards. We then moved on to research new areas
of application and began to steadily expand our portfolio of products. Today, our nets
and meshes are used in motorsport and tunnels. They also provide special solutions in
the context of impact protection.
We aim to achieve the ideal solution by making the best possible use of all components,
based on our many years of experience and track record of countless successful projects.
When it comes to safety, we leave nothing to chance: We support customers and planners
from the planning stage through final acceptance. We offer dimensioning tools developed
in-house on the basis of geotechnical investigations and large-scale field tests.

and attenuators are optimized for large-
scale use. Thus, we offer the right and
economical solution for every situation.

WE KEEP OUR
PROMISES.
LEADING SOLUTIONS
In international collaborations with universities and independent experts we develop innovative pro-
ducts so that we can offer our customers solutions that are not only eco-friendly but also cost-efficient.
TESTED SYSTEMS
Testing of our systems starts as early as the development phase. Our in-house tests are supplemented by
1:1 large-scale field testing carried out under independent supervision. For us, meeting the requirements of
the most stringent standards is a matter of course.
SOFTWARE AND SIMULATION

Reliable dimensioning for slope protection as well as for debris flow and shallow landslide barriers can be
carried out with our online tools, which are available free of charge. If required, we can also simulate and
calculate the requirements to be met by a protection system.
A GLOBAL NETWORK
