Gabion box are wire mesh boxes, containers or baskets filled with rock to prevent soil erosion and to retain/contain soil particles. Flat Gabions, called River or es, are widely used in river courses where soil erosion is a problem over a large flat or sloped area in need of protection against soil loss or scour. They are used mostly in the civil engineering industry, especially in the construction of roadway drainage structures. Recently however, due to the environmental benefits associated with gabions, they are being used in many various applications and industries.

Galvanized Gabion Mattress Usage:
It is used for the scour protection of rivers, dikes and seawalls, as well as cage for the closure of reservoirs and rivers. The most serious disaster of the river is that the water scours the Bank of the river and causes the flood, which leads to a lot of loss of life and property and a lot of soil erosion. Therefore, when dealing with the above problems, the application of the grid ecological grid structure becomes one of the best solutions, which can make the river bed and bank permanent protection.
