Passive Rockfall Mesh Drapes

Passive mesh drape systems that contain loose material and reduce rockfall risks on mine slopes.

Rockfall mesh drapes provide a proven passive protection system for managing loose material on highwalls and batters. Installed from the crest of a slope, the mesh contains and controls rockfall movement while allowing natural drainage and ongoing ground movement behind the system. Geovert installs mesh drapes tailored to site-specific conditions, using appropriate mesh types, anchoring systems and installation methods to suit the geology and operational requirements.
