Snow Avalanche Barriers


Snow avalanche barriers are used in the prevention of snow avalanches. The system uses the combination of flexible nets and high yield anchors. The placement of the system is pre-engineered by avalanche experts to pinpoint the exact locations on the slope where the system is to be installed.

Although these systems are extensively used throughout Europe,

  • Janod installed the only Brugg System in North America in Snoqualmie Pass, Washington State, in the year 2000.
  • The system is also the largest snow avalanche barrier installed in the world.
