Welded Gabion Baskets
The welded gabions are popular in architectural applications.
Made of steel wire, welded gabion box is in different treatment types, such as HDG wire, HDG after manufacturing, powder coating, etc.. Instead of lacing wire in woven gabion, for welded gabion box, each panel is connected by spiral tensile wire to form a box structure. Comparing to woven hexagonal gabion, welded gabion box is more rigid in shape. By lined with certain geotextile inside, welded gabion box is the ideal material for build up a defensive barrier fast and easily in military combat. We have been producing this design since the developing stage of HESCO barrier.
The philosophy of the Welded gabion is similar to our woven units; our welded gabion units consist of panels of quality welded wire mesh, secured together to form a gabion unit, which is filled on site with gabion stone to form the appropriate structure.
Architectural and landscaping are popular uses for these units, as they have a formal appearance when filled correctly with quality stone.

Advantages of Welded Gabions
Durable structure & Transformer prevention
High strength steel wires and solid welds ensure welded gabion a rigid structure. It can prevent transformation even it is filled with stones. The stiffeners can help keep its structure effectively.
Utmost corrosion resistance
99% pure zinc coating or Zn-Al coating (Galfan coating) is excellent in anti-corrosion and anti-abrasive. They can keep good condition even in the harshest environments.
Easy to assemble
It is easy to fold up and assemble on construction site just need simple accessories and tools. Lacing wire, spiral wires and various connection method for efficient installation.
Environmental friendly
Galfan or galvanized gabion, made of welded mesh panels, is considered a durable alternative to traditional concrete and timber for flood and soil erosion control. Meanwhile, it has less impact on the surrounding environments.
Aesthetically appearance
welded gabion has a natural appearance and can be painted in various colors to blend well with surroundings. Meanwhile, we provide enhanced aesthetically appearance if combined with green plants or vegetation.
High adaptability
Superdura welded gabion baskets can be applied to environmental sensitive conditions such as marine areas with high velocity water flow - that is because spaces between rocks can efficiently dissipate large flow energy as well as drain the flow positively.
