Double-twisted hexagonal mesh boxes filled with stone — the building block of every gabion wall. Flexible, free-draining and built to hold back earth and water where rigid concrete cracks. Available in GI and PVC-coated wire.
A gabion box is a rectangular cage woven from double-twisted hexagonal wire mesh and packed on site with hard, durable stone. Because the mesh is twisted rather than welded, a single broken wire will not unravel the panel — load keeps distributing across the whole structure.
Stacked and laced together, the boxes form a gabion wall: a gravity retaining structure that drains freely, tolerates settlement without cracking, and grows stronger over time as silt and vegetation bind the fill together. See our gabion wall design guide.
We manufacture to your project's drawing and governing standard. Typical parameters we supply against:
| Parameter | Available options |
|---|---|
| Mesh type | Hexagonal double-twisted, machine woven |
| Wire coating | Heavily galvanized (GI) or PVC coated over GI |
| Box dimensions | Manufactured to project requirement (length × width × height) |
| Diaphragms | Internal diaphragms fitted to retain shape under fill |
| Selvedge / edge wire | Heavier gauge than mesh wire, mechanically bound |
| Stone fill | Hard, durable stone, sized larger than the mesh aperture |
| Raw material | Procured to ISI standards from verified manufacturers |
| Quality system | ISO 9001:2015 certified (Cert. No. 305024011282Q) |
