EMASMAX®, high-tech EMERGENCY ARRESTING SYSTEMS

ADDITIONAL AIRCRAFT PROTECTION

EMASMAX® is composed of cellular cement blocks that absorb kinetic energy and safely decelerate and stop an aircraft in a controlled fashion in the event of runway excursion (which is a common cause of accidents in commercial aviation).

A FLEXIBLE SOLUTION TO RELIEVE SPACE CONSTRAINTS AT AIRPORTS

EMASMAX® offers airports with a limited RESA¹⁶ a solution that provides safety while reducing the area required for a runway end safety area. The system also offers shorter installation times, reduced maintenance and minimal service disruption.

INCREASED PASSENGER SAFETY

Since the first installation in 1996, EMASMAX® has safely stopped nine aircraft (ranging from a Cessna Citation to a Boeing B747) in real emergency overrun situations, with the safe evacuation of several hundred people.
