​Why Galfan Coating Matters​

We use a new Galfan wire coating for our gabion boxes—this isn’t your regular zinc coating. Galfan is 95% zinc + 5% aluminum alloy, and it’s way better at fighting rust. Studies show it lasts 2-3 times longer than standard galvanized coatings, even in wet or salty environments (like rivers or coastal areas). That means your gabion structure will stay strong for decades, not just a few years.

​What Makes Our Gabion Boxes Special?​

  1. ​Built to Last​
    The Galfan coating is super tough. It resists abrasion (from rocks or water flow) and corrosion better than regular zinc. Even if the coating gets scratched, the aluminum and zinc work together to protect the steel inside. This is a big deal for river diversion structures—they face constant water pressure and erosion, so durability is key.
  2. ​Simple to Install​
    You don’t need heavy machinery or expert skills. Our gabion boxes are made of hexagonal woven wire (a classic design that’s been used for over 100 years because it works). Just stack them like Lego blocks, fill with local rocks, and secure. Farmers, contractors, and even DIYers can handle it.
  3. ​Eco-Friendly & Natural​
    Gabions are a green choice. They let water flow through (so no water buildup behind them) and plants can grow through the rocks and wire. Over time, the structure blends into the landscape—way better than ugly concrete walls. Plus, Galfan is recyclable, which is a plus for eco-conscious projects.

​Perfect for River Diversion & Erosion Control​

Our gabion boxes are ideal for:
  • ​River Diversion​​: They slow down fast-moving water and guide it away from vulnerable areas (like farmland or roads).
  • ​Erosion Control​​: Stop soil from washing away on riverbanks, slopes, or construction sites.
  • ​Flood Protection​​: Act as a barrier to prevent floodwaters from damaging property.
Real Example: A community in Iowa used our 6×2×0.3m gabion boxes to divert river water away from their homes during a flood. The structures held up against the strong current, and the riverbank stayed stable. “It was easy to install, and we didn’t have to worry about rust for years,” said one homeowner.

​Technical Specs (Simple Version)​

  • ​Size​​: 6m (length) × 2m (width) × 0.3m (height) – perfect for small to medium river projects.
  • ​Volume​​: 3.6m³ (holds a lot of rocks, so it’s stable).
  • ​Wire Diameter​​: 2.0–3.0mm (strong enough to hold rocks).
  • ​Mesh Size​​: 80×100mm to 100×120mm (lets water flow through but keeps rocks in place).
  • ​Zinc Coating​​: 215–275g/m² (meets international standards for durability).

​Why Choose Us?​

  • ​Affordable​​: Cheaper than concrete walls (and no curing time!).
  • ​Customizable​​: We can adjust the size or coating if you need it.
  • ​Fast Delivery​​: Get your gabions in 2–4 weeks (perfect for urgent projects).
