Gabions are cubicoid baskets in different sizes appropriate for requirements of civil engineering projects. They are made of wire gauze with hexagonal mesh from wires joined by twisting. In the production thick zinc plated wires* are used or even the latest generation wires that are coated with the so-called aluzinc (CRAPAL, BEZINAL). All and any kinds of wire can be additionally covered with PVC that improves their anticorrosive properties and enhances their aesthetic values.
