The Eco Friendly Gabion Mattress is a flat, flexible wire mesh structure using a double-twisted hexagonal weave. Filled with stones, it is then applied to the slope. Its porous design allows water to flow freely, while surface sediment promotes rapid vegetation growth, improving the micro-ecological environment. It is suitable for ecological slope protection, riverbed lining, and wetland conservation projects.

Product Advantages
Highly Permeable
With approximately 30% open porosity, water flows through naturally, eliminating hydrostatic pressure behind the wall without the need for pre-drainage holes.
01
Flexible and Adaptive
Utilizing the strong ductility of its double-twisted structure, it can withstand ±5% slope settlement, maintaining structural stability and preventing cracking.
02
Simple Construction
Precast mesh is assembled on-site and filled with stones, requiring only a "1 machine, 5 people" setup, allowing for the completion of 300-500㎡ of laying per day.
03
Low overall cost
Compared to cast-in-place concrete slope protection, material costs are reduced by approximately 20%, construction time is shortened by 50%, and subsequent maintenance costs are almost zero.
04
Rapid Ecological Restoration
Grass naturally grows in the cracks within 3-6 months after paving, and vegetation coverage can reach over 80% after one year, eliminating the need for artificial sowing.
05
Functional Value
Concrete slope protection
We do not need drainage holes. Water seeps through the gaps in the stones. This helps get rid of pressure.
01
Natural vegetation restoration
Soil gets stuck in the gaps between the stones. This soil helps grass seeds and shrubs grow. We do not need to add soil on top.
02
Water purification assistance
The stones have lots of holes. These holes help river water mix with the soil on the slope. This mixing helps clean the water.
03
Strong erosion resistance
This method can handle flowing surface water. The speed can be 4 to 6 meters per second. This is much faster than using turf for slope protection, which can only handle than 2 meters, per second.
04
Applications
Eco Friendly Gabion Mattress is widely used in various fields due to its unique ecological characteristics and excellent engineering performance:
1. Hydraulic Engineering: Used for erosion protection of embankment slopes and riverbanks, as well as riverbed and slope toe protection.
2. River Regulation Engineering: Used to construct flexible protective structures in river regulation and management projects to improve riverbank stability.
3. Ecological Protection Engineering: Used for ecological protection and defense in projects such as ecological protection, flood control, and post-disaster reconstruction.

FAQ
Q: Does the Eco Friendly Gabion Mattress require foundation treatment?
A: On ordinary slopes, it can be laid directly after clearing weeds and sharp rocks. For the toe of the slope or areas with rapid water flow, it is recommended to dig a 0.3-0.5m deep trench, fill it with gravel, and then place the bottom layer of mesh mat.
Q: Is the mesh mat suitable for frozen areas?
A: Yes. The flexible structure can withstand frost heave deformation, and the double-twisted mesh will not break due to ice thrust. Galfan coating is recommended for high-altitude and cold regions.
Q: How does the maintenance cost of the mesh compare to concrete slope protection?
A: Almost zero maintenance. Concrete is prone to cracking and requires repair, while mesh only requires occasional checks for loose binding wires or lost aggregate; localized repairs are simple.
