PVC coated gabion description:
Galvanized Gabion Baskets : Gabion Baskets consist of rectangular cells, are made of a double-twist, hexagonal mesh of soft, heavily galvanized wire. the mesh panels are reinforced at the edges with wires of a larger diameter (called edge/border or selvedge wire), to strengthen the structure. Gabions are divided into cells by cells called diaphragms which have the function of reinforcing the gabions by internal panels and easing the assembly and erection.
Galfan Gabion Baskets : This specification of Galfan/Zinc-Al coated steel double twisted woven wire mesh gabion baskets, filled with stones and used for various applications including retaining walls, mechanically stabilized earth structures, bank protection, slope protection, weirs, drop structures etc.
Galvanized or Galfan Gabion baskets with PVC or PE coating: The characteristics of these products are similar to those of the galvanized gabions; however the wire, prior to manufacturing the mesh, is coated with a nominal 0.5-1mm thick special PVC coated. Better protection against possible corrosion is obtained so the gabions become more suitable for use in marine or polluted environments.
