Why Terraforce®? It starts with the block.

The Terraforce Retaining Walls® block is reversible and hollow-core, and that one design does a lot of work:

• Reversible: turn the block over to face either a flat/rock or round face finish. One shape adapts to many applications and site conditions.
• Interlocking: the blocks interlock horizontally like a ball-and-socket, allowing for maximum contour versatility.
• Hollow-core: the open cores fill with soil, so the wall supports plants and vegetation and blends into the landscape.

From light gravity walls to geogrid-reinforced and heavy-duty double-lay walls, it all starts with the same versatile block, a design proven for almost 50 years.

Terraforce Retaining Walls® has released the first of three animated installation guides, showing how to build a gravity retaining wall using Terraforce® blocks.

The animation follows each stage of construction, from preparing the foundation and laying the first course to backfilling, compaction and finishing the wall. Seeing the process in motion makes it easier to understand how the blocks interlock and why careful preparation and placement matter for a long-lasting wall.

The animation is intended as a guide only. Wall height, loading, ground conditions and drainage requirements must be assessed by a suitably qualified professional for each project.

Produced by Modena Technologies, the animation is the first in a series of three. The next two will cover composite walls with geogrid reinforcement and heavy-duty walls built with double layers of blocks, concrete infill and reinforcing steel.

The Terraforce® round face finish gives this retaining wall at the Takealot distribution centre in Cape Town its distinctive scalloped look. The rounded block faces create a soft, rhythmic texture that catches the light and follows the curves of the wall.

Round face blocks add character to large-scale infrastructure without losing strength or practicality. The wall also steps down at its end, showing how flexible the Terraforce® system is on a working logistics site.

Project follow-up: Terraforce Retaining Walls® walls at eZulwini, Eswatini, eleven years on

Cutting into the hillside for the new International Convention Centre and five-star resort exposed steep, unstable slopes. The solution was a tiered Terraforce® wall system: a 2m double-skin first tier, the base for 4m stepped tiers, reaching up to 26m, an all-time high for Terraforce® retaining wall engineering to date.

Designed by Fred Laker for Terrasafe® and installed by EFS Construction, a Terraforce® licensed manufacturer and recommended contractor, the walls used 267,700 customised L11 blocks.

Seedling bags were built into the infill as each tier went up, and the red oxide blocks now sit under groundcover, shrubs and creepers, as photographed in September 2026.

A Terraforce® Terracrete™ permeable paver stormwater channel under construction in Wolseley, with the Western Cape mountains as a backdrop. The pavers interlock to form a continuous, hard-wearing lining that protects the channel from erosion. The inset shows the edging detail, where the blocks are set to finish the channel edge neatly and hold the lining in place against the surrounding ground.

The pavers are laid by hand, so the system suits sites with limited access as well as developed areas. Terracrete™ is supplied through Terraforce® licensed manufacturers across South Africa and internationally.

47 Years of Building Retaining Walls that Last

Since 1979, Terraforce Retaining Walls® has been developing retaining wall and permeable paving systems that hold up in the real world, from steep rural access roads to large commercial developments.

That longevity comes from practical design, consistent block quality and a network of licensed manufacturers and recommended contractors who build to the same standard in every market. It is why Terraforce® walls are still standing, and still performing, decades after they were installed.

Whether the brief is a garden terrace, a stormwater solution or a major infrastructure slope, the approach remains the same: a system that is simple to install, built to last and designed to work with the land.

FLAT FACE. CLEAN LINES. MAXIMUM VERSATILITY.

Did you know that Terraforce® retaining blocks are reversible? Simply turn the block to display the Flat Face, creating a clean, solid and contemporary retaining wall finish.

The Flat Face is particularly effective where a more architectural appearance or near-vertical wall is required. Depending on the design, Terraforce walls can be constructed at varying inclinations, while the unique interlocking block shape allows for curves and corners.

From residential landscaping and parking areas to commercial and engineered retaining structures, the Flat Face offers yet another way to get more from the versatile Terraforce system.

One block. Different faces. Endless possibilities.

At their property in White Peaks, Western Australia, Jess and Phil Hadley have built a landscape installation that draws admiration from design professionals and passersby alike. Working with Terraforce® L16 blocks supplied by The Block Makers, the design proves refinement can be just as striking as boldness.

Tiered terracing, gently curved staircases and integrated planter boxes break up the wall faces with texture and life. The L16 block's smaller size and lighter weight made tighter radii and finer detailing possible, while a water-wise planting palette softens the hardscape without competing with it. The result feels both designed and organic, a balance that speaks to the owners' thoughtful approach.

Terraforce Retaining Walls® rock face retaining walls take on a striking form when they follow the natural curve of a slope. The rugged, natural stone-textured block face includes planting in the setback created between each course, softening the wall itself with cascading groundcover.

Above and between the wall tiers, the terraces are landscaped separately, with lawn, ornamental grasses, and seasonal planting beds completing the layered, terraced look, while curving paver paths trace the base of the walls and link the different levels.

Rock face wall systems like this are well suited to large-scale residential and commercial developments where long, curving batters need both stability and a finished aesthetic that complements surrounding gardens and public spaces.
