Geofabrics® Geobox™ gabion baskets are constructed with double-twisted steel wire mesh to form gabion retaining walls.
Designed to interconnect with adjacent units, this allows them to create flexible, permeable and continuous structures. It makes them ideal for applications such as gravity retaining walls, erosion control, channel linings, revetments and hydraulic structures like weirs.
The gabion cages are assembled on-site and filled with either locally sourced or imported rocks. Rocks are carefully hand-placed on all visible faces to achieve a neat and visually consistent finish, ensuring both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.
Geobox Gabion Baskets are ideally suited for a wide range of projects including civic and landscaping, sport and recreation and construction.

INSTALLING GEOBOX GABION BASKETS
Installation time can be reduced by up to 50 percent using our specialised tools available for hire, such as pneumatic lacing tools. The use of ‘C’ rings applied using our pneumatic lacing tools as an alternative to lacing wire makes gabion wall installation easier.
Geobox gabion walls are supported by dedicated technical specialists at Geofabrics Australasia and advanced design software to deliver fast, accurate and tailored design support for every project.
The team at Geofabrics Australasia can also connect you with recommended specialist gabion installers, who can ensure adherence to best-practice gabion wall construction methods.
