Gabion Baskets

Gabion Baskets (Boxes) are made of hexagonal Galvanized / PVC / Zinc coated double-twisted mild steel wire mesh.

Gabion baskets shall be supplied in various lengths, widths and heights. In order to strengthen the baskets, all the edges of the structure shall be selvedged with wire of greater diameter.

The wire mesh used in Gabion Baskets production strictly conforms to EN10223-3 and gabions also meet the requirements of ASTM A975-97.

All wires used in Gabion Baskets and lacing wire have the tensile strength of 350-500N/mm according to EN10223-3, 2 BS1052/80 and ASTM A641-97. (The figures above are of the wire prior to manufacturing mesh).

All mild steel wire is heavily zinc coated. When used in more severe environments, a 0,5 mm nominal thick PVC coating is extruded over the galvanised wire to provide added protection. Reinforced gabions are manufactured in hexagonal woven wire Mesh Type 80. Gabion mesh case can be filled with stones, especially the round stone or the fresh stone which was produced from the quarry. If you need the material with special gravity, Gabion mesh certainly can be your first choice. For persistency of the structure, these stones must be able to resist the climatic change, it is must be quite hard.

Haifeng's first gabion retaining structure project was constructed to retain the river banks of the River. Haifeng is known as the market-leader in gabions and mattresses. Our heritage provides a foundation of experience and credibility. Contact Haifeng to get help with your next gabion wall design.

Gabion reataining structures are rectangular. Wire mesh baskets filled with rock at the project site is to form flexible, permeable and monolithic structures such as gabion retaining walls for commercial, industrial and road projects. They are also used for erosion control for bank stabilization, channel linings, and gabion weirs. Gabion strength lies in their double twisted hexagonal mesh of steel wire which is reinforced by selvedges of heavier wire running along the edges and by transverse diaphragms. The wire will not unravel even when cut. Assembly is easy, requiring no specialized labor and nearby rock is used for fill.

Gabion retaining structures are available with different levels of protecting coating for durability. With 30% voids, gabion structures offer free drainage providing a higher bank stability when used for river bank protection.
