Gabion Basket are wire mesh boxes, containers or baskets filled with rock to prevent soil erosion and to retain/contain soil particles. Gabion and geotextile are normally used together to reduce water velocities and to re-capture river bed sediment in streams.

GABION BOX is consist of rectangular units, fabricated from a double-twisted hexagonal mesh, filled with stones. In order to reinforce the structure, its edges with a wire having a thicker diameter than the mesh wire. Gabion boxes be divided into cells by diaphragms at every 1 meters.

Gabion basket works as building blocks of gravity walls, framing of gravity walls and other reinforced structures in the form of a combination of reinforcing wire mesh containers. Gabion basket represents the best solution in places where there is a problem of extensive erosion along the watercourse
