Woven Gabion Baskets – Durable & Versatile Solutions for Erosion Control
Woven Gabion Basket is a container made of wire mesh. It is mainly made of high-strength steel wire, and its shape is usually a regular geometric shape such as a cuboid, a cube or a cylinder. The mesh opening size of the mesh basket can be adjusted according to practical applications. For example, in projects used to prevent sediment loss, the mesh openings may be smaller, while in projects used to fill large rocks, the mesh openings can be appropriately increased. The surroundings and bottom of the woven gabion basket are made of wire mesh, and have reinforced edges to ensure the stability of the structure after filling with stones and other materials.
Woven gabion baskets are high-strength, flexible wire mesh containers designed for structural and environmental applications. Made from galvanized or zinc-aluminum alloy-coated steel wire, they provide a durable and cost-effective solution for slope stabilization, erosion control, and riverbank reinforcement. Their unique hexagonal mesh pattern allows for flexibility, ensuring they adapt to uneven terrain without compromising stability.
The baskets are available in cuboid, cube, or cylindrical shapes, with adjustable mesh openings to suit different applications. Smaller mesh openings are ideal for preventing sediment loss, while larger openings accommodate coarse rock fill. To enhance structural integrity, each basket features reinforced edges and a secure diaphragm to prevent movement and deformation after filling.

Feature | Woven Gabion Basket | Welded Gabion Basket |
Mesh Type | Hexagonal (Flexible) | Square/Rectangular (Rigid) |
Strength | High flexibility, absorbs stress | Stronger but less adaptable |
Installation | Easily conforms to terrain | Requires precise placement |
Best for | Slopes, riverbanks, landscaping | Structural retaining walls |
Corrosion Resistance | High (with Galfan/PVC coating) | Moderate (welded joints prone to rust) |
If you need high flexibility and adaptability for erosion control or slope stabilization, woven gabion baskets are the best choice. For rigid, load-bearing structures, consider welded gabions.
