• Hot dipped galvanized gabion mesh
• Zinc-aluminum-mischmetal (Zn-Al-MM) alloy gabion mesh (Galfan gabion mesh)
• Polyester powder (PVC) coated gabion mesh
• Polyester powder (PVC) coated after galvanized gabion mesh

• Withstands large scale distortion without failure
• Easy to construct with no special technology needed
• Strong resistance to natural elements, rust, and harsh weather
