Galvanised Gabion Mattresses For Revetments / Sea Wall / Channel Lining

Gabion Mattress Used for Revetments, Sea Wall and Channel Lining

Gabion mattress has a flat structure, a lot lower than gabion basket. Division plates separate the mattress into several small chambers. Each chamber is filled with stones before used. Triangle, rectangle or trapezoid mattress is provided on special order.

Standard mattress sizes are 3m x 2m & 2m x 2m in plan and available in depths of 0.17m and 0.3m respectively. These are typically supplied in a Galfan coated wire with a PVC coating on top as traditionally they are laid on the beds of watercourses or beneath gabion walls to provide erosion protection and under scour. Once filled with stone or rock and the lid closed, they form monolithic blankets.

Gabion mattress prevents soil erosion and embankment from water flow or flood damage.
