Gabion/Hesco Barriers

A gabion (from Italian gabbione meaning “big cage”; from Italian gabbia and Latin cavea meaning “cage”) is a cage, cylinder, or box filled with rocks, concrete, or sometimes sand and soil for use in civil engineering, road building, and military applications. For erosion control, caged riprap is used. For dams or in foundation construction, cylindrical metal structures are used. In a military context, earth- or sand-filled gabions are used to protect artillery crews from enemy fire.

The Hesco barrier is popular used on wide area since its invention,

It is a square barrier by welded panel and Non-woven, UV-resistant Geotextile, nail together,

Fill up with sand or stone, using as a protection wall to stop bullet or other shocks.

It is could be stop the shock

The easy installation on the arm protection wall, protection the Soldier's safety. The multi-cellular barrier system creates limitless defensive barriers, Received good reviews during the war by the soldiers,

The model cells make it could be used in any size on anywhere like a Lego model.

It could be layout like overlay, split, lengthen, widen the protection edge wall,

The hesco barrier standard size is mesh open 3”x3” (76.2x76.2mm), welded by wire diameter 4.0mm or 5.0mm, deep of 1.0m by 1.0m high, length could be 1.0m or cell x5 for 5.0m length,

And it is multi-cellular type could be working on many sizes, From Mil1-Mil 10

For example, like:

Mil 1

Flat Packed Individual Unit Dimensions & Weight

Packing Dimensions & Weights

And the products is confirm the standard like

Welded wire is confirmed to ASTM A 853

All wires conform to BS 1052. Alu-Zinc coatings are to BS / EN 10244 - 2

Spiral binders ,lacing wire confirm to ASTM A641, A 856/856M.

Non-Woven Geotextile Grab tensile is confirm ASTM D4632, UV resistance is ASTM D4355,

Geotextile lined welded wire hesco barrier confirm to ASTM A 974-97.

Hesco barrier packing is a flat pallet delivery, and it is could be recovered after using,

The delivery cost and use many times make it Competitiveness, could greatly reduce costs and logistical burdens for construction materials.

Also it is could be leave no trace after using, only some sand left, which is important for the

important places, like city landscape, famous scenery, the hesco barrier could be move-out after protection mission,

Hesco barrier’s quickly installation, make it is rapid deployment before flood, as a protective dam,

It is could be delivery via truck, and fillup by sand via large equipment, after the flood through out, it is could recover, and remove out, make the landscape same as before,

Those characteristic make the Hesco barrier Very widely used in the field of protective barrier.

The Hesco barrier could could be working an Hesco containers which is longer than standard,

Which is layout to 10-15m,

HESCO Bastion as defence barrier, flood battier, welded barrier, protection Hesco barrier wall,

Military sand wall,

It is a widely using products for protection area, it is first choice for you.
