Find out why you should choose a retaining wall
The first retaining walls were used in antiquity. Built for agricultural purposes on stony, sloping terrain, they were primarily used to protect large buildings built on terraces. Inca temples are a perfect example of this.
What is the purpose of the retaining wall?
Today, in any landscaping project, the retaining wall is a basic element, both for residential and commercial sites. Used primarily to retain soil or other powdery or granular materials, it is particularly useful for sloping land, which is more prone to landslides or subsidence. It is therefore often used to level out uneven ground. Also used for aesthetic purposes, retaining walls can create relief or better structure and optimize your space.
