Gabion is a geotextile container used for building coastal and river structures for erosion protection; dewatering a wide variety of wet slurries, wastes, and sludges; and containing, dewatering and reusing dredged material. Gabion products are small, highly UV resistant sand-colored geotextile containers filled either hydraulically or mechanically with sand and utilized in lieu of stone, concrete, or other hardened armor systems to protect coastlines.
Water Conservancy are an ideal, environmentally sensitive solution for many geotechnical, erosion control, stream bank stabilization and channel lining applications. Gabion structures is an important aspect of how a gabion structure restores the environment back to natural conditions once construction works are complete. Gabion products and solutions have been developed specifically for coastal protection. Their use as an ideal solution for these applications has grown over the years due to the numerous advantages and ease of implementation both from the design and construction perspectives.
