Gabion Basket means the provision by the machine a twisted hexagonal wire mesh surface together constitute a box-shaped components. Gabion at the construction site by a stone fill to form a fiexible, permeable and overall structure, is mainly used in retaining walls, channel lining, weirs and other works of retaining and erosion protection.
For over a century, triple twist hexagonal mesh has been used successfully in construction work. The triple twist weaving prevents unravelling. Baskets and mattresses made of this mesh fabric are a valid and effective technical solution in the design, construction and maintenance of a variety of protective flexible structures.
