Slope Protection Gabion Wire Baskets Retaining Wall Gabion Box
History of Gabion Box:
Box-shaped wire mesh gabions in the world have been used for over 100 years. For the first time as a reinforcing material of construction gabions have been used in France in the early 19th century. It is noteworthy that these early structures are functioning properly until today. Gabion can be used to reinforce slopes, hillsides, embankments, cuttings, gullies, road-bridge structures. In some areas, gabion structures, until recently, had limited application and used only to strengthen the embankment slopes. Experience shows that the construction of gabions is an alternative way to protect road-bridge slopes.

Gabion box application:
Gabion advantage
1). Flexible structure to adapt to changes in the slope without being destroyed, better than the rigid structure with the security and stability;
2). Anti-erosion ability, able to withstand the maximum flow rate of up to 6m/s.
3). This structure has essentially permeability, groundwater and the filtering effect of the natural role of a strong inclusive, suspended matter and silt in the water to move in to fill the crevice in precipitation, which is conducive to the growth of natural plants, and gradually restore the original ecological environment.
