Advantages of gabion wire mesh
  1. Its flexible design allows it to conform to slope movements without sustaining damage, offering superior safety and stability compared to rigid alternatives.

  2. It exhibits high resistance to scour, capable of enduring water velocities as high as six meters per second.

  3. The inherently permeable structure promotes natural groundwater drainage and filtration. Suspended solids and silt settle within the voids of the stone fill, creating a suitable environment for native vegetation to establish and progressively restore the original ecosystem.

The gabion mesh is fabricated from a single layer of mesh, sharing the same wire, weave, galvanization, and PVC coating specifications as standard mesh boxes. This system allows for rocks of diverse shapes and sizes to be placed into the alloy mesh bags, creating a cohesive, flexible unit. These units can be transported via crane, truck, or barge and interconnected to form extensive structures. This makes the placement process during construction highly convenient, rapid, efficient, and economical.
