Product Description
Gabion refers to PVC coating on zinc coating wire fabric containers that comes in variable sizes with rocks filling to form a permanent structure. And the Green Gabion Mattress, also known as Gabion Mattress System by Fibromat makes a great Earth Retention System caters for slopes erosion control, toe and river bank protection, maximizing permeability on the structure while providing reinforcement and grass establishment.
Gabion basket also named gabion box, is weaved by corrosion resistance, high strength and good ductility galvanized wire or PVC coating wire through mechanical. Wire's material is zinc-5% aluminum alloy (galfan), low carbon steel, stainless steel or iron. Gabion mattress is similar to gabion basket. But gabion mattress's height is lower than gabion basket, structure is flat and big. Gabion basket and gabion mattress are stone containers, uniformly partitioned into internal cells, interconnected with other containers and filled with stone at site to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures to control and guide water or flood, protect dam or seawall, or used as retaining walls, channel lining and other applications.

Application
(1)Control and guide rivers and floods (2) Spillway and diversion dam (3) Prevent water and soil erosion (4) Retaining wall (5) Road protection For example 1.Gabion nets have strong resistance to natural damage, corrosion and harsh weather. It can withstand large deformations, but still does not collapse. The mud between the cracks in the cage is conducive to the production of plants and can be integrated with the surrounding natural environment. 2. the gabion net has good permeability and prevents hydrostatic damage. Conducive to the stability of hillsides and beaches and save transportation costs. It can be folded, transported and assembled on site. Good flexibility: no structural joints, the overall structure is ductile. Corrosion resistance. 3. Gabion nets can be used for slope support, foundation pit support, spraying of suspension nets on rocky surfaces in mountainous areas, slope birth (greening), and railway and highway isolation block nets. It can also be made into cages and net pads for river, dike and seawall protection, reservoirs and river interception nets.
1. Ends,diaphragms,front and back panels are placed upright on the bottom section of wire mesh 2. Secure panels by screwing sprial binders through the mesh openings in adjacent panels 3. Stiffeners shall be placed across the corners, at 300mm from the corner. Providing a diagonal bracing,and crimped 4. Box gabion filled with graded stone by hand or with a shovel. 5. After filling,close the lid and secure with sprial binders at the diaphragms,ends,front and back. 6. When stacking tiers of the weled gabion,the lid of the lower tier may serve as base of the upper tier.Secure with sprial binders and add pre-formed stiffeners to exterior cells before filling with graded stones.
1. Raw Material Inspection Inspecting wire diameter, tensile strength, hardness and zinc coating and PVC coating, etc
2. Weaving Process quality control For each gabion, we have strict QC system to inspect the mesh hole, mesh size and gabion size.
3. Weaving Process quality control The most advanced machine 19 sets to make every gabion mesh Zero Defect.
4. Packing Every gabion box is compact and weighted then packed into pallet for shipment,
The gabion box package is folded and in bundles or in rolls. We also can pack it according to customers special request
