III. Diverse Classifications, Meeting Multiple Needs

1. Classification by Surface Treatment
   • Electro-Galvanized Gabion Mesh: Through the electro-galvanizing process, a uniform zinc layer is formed on the mesh surface, providing certain rust resistance at a relatively low cost. It is suitable for river protection projects with moderate protection requirements and limited budgets.
   • Hot-Dip Galvanized Gabion Mesh: The gabion mesh is immersed in molten zinc, forming a thick zinc layer on its surface. This treatment offers excellent corrosion resistance and a long service life, making it suitable for harsh environments, fast-flowing water, and severely eroded river protection, such as mountain rivers and seasonal rivers.
   • PVC-Coated Gabion Mesh: Also known as plastic-coated gabion mesh, it features a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polyethylene (PE) plastic coating on the metal wire surface. It offers good corrosion resistance, aesthetics, environmental friendliness, and insulation. Available in various colors, such as grass green, dark green, and white, it blends with the natural environment of the river, enhancing aesthetics. It is widely used in urban rivers and scenic river areas with high environmental aesthetics requirements.
   • Plastic-Dipped Gabion Mesh: Offers excellent corrosion resistance, weather resistance, and impact resistance. After plastic dipping, a tough plastic coating forms on the mesh surface, effectively resisting erosion from natural factors like UV rays and rainwater. It also provides cushioning against external impacts, reducing mesh damage. Commonly used in large outdoor river protection projects, such as embankment protection and river slope reinforcement.
2. Classification by Application: As river protection gabion mesh, it is primarily used for river slope protection to prevent soil collapse and landslides caused by water flow erosion and rainwater, ensuring the stability of riverbanks. It can also be used for river isolation to define management boundaries, preventing unauthorized personnel and animals from entering hazardous areas, ensuring safety and the normal operation of river facilities. Additionally, in river remediation projects, gabion mesh can be used to stabilize riverbeds, prevent sediment from being washed away, and maintain the normal form and function of rivers.

IV. Product Features

1. Aesthetic Appeal: Uniform mesh holes and a flat surface, combined with a simple weaving process, give the gabion mesh a visually appealing appearance. Its smooth lines and regular mesh pattern complement the natural landscape or urban environment of the river, enhancing overall aesthetics and creating a comfortable, pleasant water environment.
2. High Strength and Impact Resistance: Woven with thicker metal wires, the gabion mesh offers high strength and impact resistance. It effectively blocks external impacts like water flow and falling rocks, providing reliable protection for rivers. Even under significant impact, its elastic structure cushions the force, reducing damage and lowering maintenance and replacement costs.
3. Corrosion Resistance and Long Lifespan: Through high-quality material selection and advanced surface treatment processes, our gabion mesh offers excellent corrosion resistance.

Good permeability also supports the balance of river ecosystems, ensuring the survival and reproduction of aquatic life, aligning with modern ecological river management principles.
6. Strong Adaptability: With good flexibility and plasticity, the gabion mesh adapts to various complex river terrains and slope gradients. Whether on steep slopes, gentle banks, or irregular river bends, it can be easily installed, closely fitting the terrain to provide comprehensive protection.

V. Product Specifications

1. Mesh Size: Available in various sizes, such as 50mm×50mm, 60mm×60mm, and 80mm×80mm. You can choose the appropriate size based on factors like water flow speed, sediment content, and protection requirements. Smaller mesh sizes offer tighter protection, preventing fine sediment loss, and are suitable for fast-flowing, high-sediment river areas. Larger mesh sizes prioritize water permeability and ventilation, ideal for slow-flowing areas with lower sediment retention needs, such as gentle river sections or scenic zones.
2. Wire Diameter: Wire diameters range from 2.0mm to 5.0mm, with different diameters corresponding to varying strength and protection levels. Thicker wires provide higher strength and impact resistance, suitable for areas prone to significant external impacts, such as fast-flowing river sections or embankment edges. Thinner wires offer cost savings while maintaining adequate protection, ideal for areas with lower strength requirements, such as upper river slopes or gentle banks. We can recommend the appropriate wire diameter based on your river’s specific conditions.
3. Mesh Height: Mesh heights typically include 1.2 meters, 1.5 meters, 1.8 meters, and 2.0 meters. You can choose the height based on factors like river depth, slope height, and protection level. Taller meshes provide better protection, preventing people and objects from falling into the river, and are suitable for deep, high-risk river areas. Shorter meshes focus on aesthetics and spatial openness, ideal for areas with lower safety requirements, such as urban river platforms or small stream banks.
