Gabion for Riverbank Protection and Natural Landscape Decoration

Gabion is an element in the form of blocks made of wire mesh netting of twisted hexagonal opening or welded square or rectangular openings, which is filled with natural stone for landscape design and riverbank protection.

Gabion is very popular in construction and engineering with its stable structure, high flexibility and corrosion resistance. We can supply two kinds of gabion: welded gabion and woven gabion.

The welded gabion is mainly used for landscape applications, bastion barrier, retaining wall and flood controlling. It also can combine with relatively thick non-woven fabric to make fortress. The woven gabion is widely applied to slope protection and riverbank protection.
