Gabions are rectangular cages made of double twist hexagonal wire mesh, filled with appropriately sized rock. They are used as retaining walls, toe protection for slopes or as weirs. The flexibility of gabions allows significant deformation without affecting the structural integrity of a wall. If revegetation of a structure is required, the environmentally friendly nature of gabion cages does not impede this process.
Gabions are available in the following standard sizes:
L(m) x w(m) x h(m)
1m x1m x 1m
2m x 1.5m x 1m
2m x 0.5m x 0.5m
2m x 1m 0.5m
2m x 1m x 1m
4m x 1m x 0.5m
4m x 1m x 1m
6m x 2m x 0.5m
Crimped / double crimped wire mesh are of heaviest quality and accurate mesh which are made by spring steel, carbon steel, high tensile steel wires in different wire diameters generally used for screening, mines, quary industries, fabrication work etc. The perfect crimping insures the wire lock firmly together at the intersections. The opening and extra crimping is important. We provide the mesh with extra locking & tightness for less thickness wires.

Insects, mosquitoes and other undesirable airborne pests are a constant threat to both personal comfort and hygiene.
We stock an extensive range of standard í«insect mesh for screening windows, doors and ventilation areas in homes, offices, hospitals, restaurants and other establishments where there is a potential problem. Uk building regulations now insist upon mesh screening to be fitted above soffit board ventilators, and we are able to supply our standard grades in strip form specifically for this purpose.
