PVC Coated Gabion Mattress Reno Mattress
Product Introduction:
Reno Mattress is a gabion mattress for structural support and erosion protection. It consists of wire mesh encased in galvanized steel or PVC filled with soil and other materials. The mattress is rectangular for an even weight distribution for enhanced structural integrity. A Reno Mattress has various applications, including slope stabilization, stream bank protection, bridge protection, and erosion control. Their reliable, resilient structure provides exceptional structural integrity, preventing slippage or soil degradation.
They can be used in many different environments and soil conditions, making them the suitable choice for erosion control and the protection of slopes. This is because they are resistant to corrosion and degradation, thanks to the galvanized steel or PVC wire mesh material that encases them.

Typical Applications for Reno Mattresses
- Reno Mattresses are ideal for numerous projects due to their superior strength and durability. We provide this engineering solution for various applications, including shoreline protection, embankment stabilization, bridge abutment stabilization, wing walls, and hydraulic applications.
- Reno Mattresses are an excellent solution for hydraulic applications such as weirs. When used to protect rivers and streams, they form an essential line of defense that limits scour and stream channel erosion. Reno mattresses have longevity and low long-term maintenance.
- Reno Mattresses are ideal for many applications, including permanent protection and support solutions. The convenience, affordability, and quality of these solutions are unparalleled. At Gabion Supply, we provide Reno mattresses with technical design services, competitive pricing, superior installation options, and comprehensive delivery solutions, so you can rest assured you’re in good hands with us.

What is the Difference Between Gabion and Gabion Mattresses (Or Reno Mattresses)?
- Gabions and Reno Mattresses are two popular solutions for flood control and streambank stabilization. Both systems utilize interlocking units filled with stone, but each solution has unique benefits. The primary difference is the size of the Reno Mattress: they are slightly wider and shorter than a traditional gabion.
- Gabions are large baskets or cages filled with rock. They provide extra stability to steep or eroding streambanks and channels or dams with higher velocity flows. These cages come in many shapes and sizes and can fit virtually any terrain.
- Reno Mattresses are similar to gabions but have a unique shape. They have interlocking cells, allowing them to adapt to irregular terrain, which makes them great for stabilizing natural shorelines or ponds. The hexagonal design makes them incredibly versatile and is ideal for areas with curves and bends.
- Another advantage of Reno Mattresses is their use for large or small applications. Whether it’s for residential or commercial applications, Reno Mattresses offer a much lower labor cost than gabions due to their flexibility. Reno Mattresses also require less heavy equipment when installing because they are generally easier to place than gabions.
- It’s necessary to consider the differences between gabions and Reno Mattresses when choosing a flood control or streambank stabilization solution. Gabions are great for high-velocity channels or dams, while Reno Mattresses are ideal for irregular terrain. Ultimately, the best option will depend on the needs of your project.
