Company Profile

Gabion Baskets (Pty) Ltd (Johannesburg) has been in existence since 2006, however I have been in the gabion industry from 1992. (Tel :- 011-793 1078) I managed a gabion company from 1999 until opening my own company.

Gabion Basket Specifications
Our baskets are made from Class A galvanized mild tensile steel wire in accordance with the SANS 675 specification. The baskets and mattresses are manufactured in strict accordance with the SANS 1580 and site installations are also in accordance with the latest SANS 1200 specification.

Gabions
Our mesh is hexagonal in shape meeting with the 80x100 mm mesh aperture for gabions with a mesh wire diameter of 2.7mm and selvedge wire of 3.4mm diameter.

River Mattresses
Mattresses also have a hexagonal mesh spec. of 80x100mm with 2.5mm mesh wire and 3.0mm selvedge wire diameter.

All gabions and mattresses use a 2.20mm wire diameter lacing wire which is supplied with the baskets and used to lace together the mesh panels during the erection process.

Mattresses and gabion baskets are also available with a 0.5mm thickness P.V.C. coating to enhance the resistance of the baskets to corrosion of the wire mesh. This provides a overall increase in diameter of 1mm to all wires used in the manufacturing process.

We solve soil erosion and retention problems.

Gabion baskets or river mattresses are offered Class A galvanized or together with a PVC coating to prevent corrosion of the steel wire.

Hexagonal woven mesh netting is offered and used over mattresses for large areas and for rock-fall mesh netting.

Geotextiles are normally used with gabion baskets to prevent/limit movement of soil particles through or underneath the gabion structure.

Gabion tool sets are offered to make the site installation task easier and more productive.

Biodegradeable soil blankets are permeable fabrics used to prevent soil erosion.

Impermeable liners are membranes which can be used to make gabions impermeable to water.

Subsoil Pipes are used in water logged soils to drain the water away from sensitive installations e.g. roads.

Roadway Crack Seal Tape is used for surface sealing of open cracks(up to 5mm wide) on Asphalt or concrete surfaces and pavements, It can be also be used as a pre-treatment before being overlaid.
