PVC Coated Gabion Wire Mesh Protecting Riverbanks, Slopes, And
Channels From Erosion
Woven Gabion Wire Mesh
Constructed from high-tensile galvanized steel wire (wire diameter
3.2-4.7mm, zinc coating ≥250g/m²), this hexagonal double-twisted
mesh forms flexible revetment matrices for coastal breakwater
foundations and reservoir embankments. The 100x120mm apertures
optimize stone interlock in riprap applications, while reinforced
vertical stays (8-gauge) enhance load distribution across
wave-impact zones. Prefabricated rolls (2m width x 50m length)
allow rapid deployment in submerged erosion control works, meeting
ISO 10394-2 specifications for saline environment durability.
Compatible with gabion baskets or mattress configurations in
large-scale hydraulic infrastructure.
Using PVC-coated wire mesh offers several environmental benefits:
1. Reduced Corrosion and Maintenance:
The PVC coating provides excellent protection against corrosion and
rust, which are common issues in traditional wire meshes. This
means that PVC-coated wire mesh has a significantly longer lifespan
compared to uncoated options. For example, while galvanized wire
mesh may last around 10-15 years, PVC-coated options can last
upwards of 30 years under similar conditions. This extended
lifespan reduces the need for frequent replacements, thereby
minimizing waste and the environmental impact associated with
manufacturing new materials.
2. Durability and Longevity:
PVC-coated wire mesh is highly durable and can withstand harsh
weather conditions, including rain, snow, and UV rays. This
durability ensures that the mesh maintains its structural integrity
over time, making it suitable for long-term use in various
environments. The reduced need for maintenance and replacement
contributes to lower environmental impact.
3. Sustainable Material Use:
The use of PVC-coated wire mesh can reduce the need for other more
environmentally harmful materials. For example, in landscaping and
erosion control projects, using natural stone fill within
PVC-coated gabions minimizes the need for concrete, which has a
higher carbon footprint. Additionally, using locally sourced
materials, such as local stones for gabions, is a best practice for
reducing environmental impact.
4. Recyclability:
While PVC itself may not be as easily recyclable as some other
materials, the steel core of the wire mesh is recyclable. At the
end of its life cycle, the steel can be separated and recycled,
reducing waste in landfills.
5. Energy Efficiency:
PVC-coated wire mesh is lightweight, which means that less energy
is required for manufacturing and transportation compared to
heavier materials. This reduced energy consumption contributes to a
lower overall carbon footprint.
In summary, PVC-coated wire mesh offers significant environmental
benefits through its durability, reduced maintenance needs,
sustainable material use, recyclability, and energy efficiency.
These factors make it a more eco-friendly option compared to
traditional wire meshes.
