Gabion Baskets for Retaining Walls, River Bank Protection, and Erosion Control

Gabion baskets are a wire cage or gabion box composed of woven gabions or welded mesh, filled with materials such as stone, concrete, sand or soil. It has higher strength and durability. Its structure is more compact, not easy to deform and damage, and has a longer service life. It is mainly used for slope stabilization, erosion protection, and river bank reinforcement in projects such as roadbed protection, water conservancy projects, and garden landscapes.
