How are woven gabions manufactured?
Woven gabions are reliable retaining structures made of double-twisted galvanized wire with a thickness of Ф3.00 mm. They feature a hexagonal mesh opening, known as the "gabion eye," measuring 80x100 mm. Due to the "woven" construction, they are flexible and adapt to uneven surfaces both below and above them. They are available in various sizes, but the 200x150x100 cm model is among the most commonly used.
The cells of woven gabions are closed (tied) with galvanized wire or galvanized clamps and are filled with inert rock material. The mesh acts as a retaining structure, preventing the displacement of the rock pieces and ensuring stability even under heavy loads.
Most common applications of gabion 200x150x100cm
- construction of retaining walls on slopes, embankments, and terrains;
- stabilization of landslides and prevention of collapses;
- strengthening of marine and riverbanks, riverbeds, dam walls, and more;
- terracing yards and gardens, among others.
Thanks to their method of manufacture, woven gabions gain exceptional load capacity, high tensile and compressive strength. Unlike welded gabions, which are made from metal welded rigid grids, woven ones can withstand high loads without breaking.
- Material: galvanized steel
- Dimensions: 200x150x100 cm (L x W x H)
- Mesh opening: 80x100 mm (L x W)

The woven gabions 200x150x100 cm are of universal size and are the easiest and most preferred for use in the construction of high-load structures and reinforcement works. They feature 1 diaphragm that serves as an additional support.
How to choose a gabion size?
When choosing the appropriate gabion size, consider the following factors:
- Project requirements: If working on slope stabilization, embankment, or shoreline reinforcement, the gabion size will depend on the load requirements and the space that needs reinforcement.
- Load: For heavy structures and stabilization of landslides or embankments, choose larger gabions to ensure stability under high loads.
- Terrain shape: If the terrain is uneven or has specific requirements, choose smaller and more flexible gabions that can easily adapt to the ground's shape.
- Function: For decorative or architectural purposes, smaller gabions or those with different visual characteristics can be chosen.
Note that larger gabions can be heavier to work with and install but offer greater stability for heavy and large projects. If unsure about the size selection, consult our experts for optimal recommendations based on your project.
IMPORTANT!!!
The gabions are sent to the customer in disassembled form, in separate panels, accompanied by the necessary accessories for installation. Transportation costs are at the recipient's expense. We provide stones for filling and installation of the gabions for an additional fee.
