90% Zinc + 10% Aluminium coating Hexagonal Wire Gabion Basket Rock Cage Retaining Wall

Gabions have been popular for many years due to their flexibility and proven performance. Traditionally when gabion baskets were rock filled they could be designed to act as a monolithic mass for retaining wall construction that was quite flexible, free draining and well suited to remote construction areas.

Orientland gabions are supplied with a 90% Zinc + 10% Aluminium coating, the new generation long life alloy coating offering double the protection than the commonly available 95% Zinc + 5% AL coating systems and an extra coating of PVC to provide protection to the galvanising and an additional corrosion barrier.

Available in a wide range of sizes to meet the requirements of your project. Supplied flat packed to be filled onsite making them more economical to freight.

Features of the Gabion:

The pliability and flexibility of the woven mesh makes it extremely flexible and tough and the ideal solution for civil engineering applications typically on poor or uneven ground, where some deformation of the basket is required or expected. The resulting wall also tends to look more natural, giving it a dry stone wall effect. As a result it particularly suits retaining wall applications for river training and coastal defence applications.

Woven Mesh Gabion retaining walls can be designed using the traditional gravity retaining wall concept, or alternatively, they can also be used as the facing element for reinforced earth retaining structures.

Applications of Gabion:

Gabions are mostly used as gravity retaining walls, although they can be used for erosion protection, bank stabilisation, as noise barriers, or even as a temporary flood wall. Moreover, they are commonly used to create aesthetic and functional architectural features in outdoor decoration and landscaping.
