Gabion and Gabion Box for Flood or Erosion Control
Product Description:
Gabion baskets and es are commonly designed and constructed in a wide variety of configurations to provide long-term slope protection solutions, they are filled with rock at the project site to form flexible, permeable, and monolithic structures such as retaining walls, channels, and weirs for erosion control projects.
The wire is heavily zinc coated and for added protection can also be PVC coated. PVC-coated gabions will normally be specified in applications requiring additional protection against corrosion for example in the tidal zone of rivers, stainless steel wire is also available on special order. The gabions boxes are supplied in various sizes, 2 m long by 1 m wide by 1 m high being the most popular size. The diameter of the wire used can also be varied within limits.

Gabion and Gabion Box applications:
The portfolio of products is used in numerous solutions:
River and stream training:
Weirs and drop structures, river bank protection, and river groynes reduce the erosion caused by river flow. These solutions are often used to sustain societies by providing water supply systems and irrigation channels for agriculture. Rivers are often contained within cities by lined channels, limiting erosion and riverbank loss.
Scour protection:
Our solutions are used around bridge piers, within reservoirs, on overflow channels from dams, and within mines to limit the erosion effects from moving water.
Reservoirs, storage lagoons, and ponds:
Our solutions are used to create and line containment works for reservoirs, mine stilling basins, canals, attenuation ponds, and storage lagoons as well as for golf courses and agriculture.
Coastal protection and repair.
We offer solutions that protect the coast or structures on it, as well as solutions that repair or reinstate the coast, following damage; for example breakwaters or groynes for protection, or dune reconstruction and reef rehabilitation for repair works.
