Gabion Cage & Revet Mattress
Gabion cages are double-twisted hexagonal mesh boxes filled on site with stone. The structure is flexible and free-draining, so it tolerates settlement that would crack rigid concrete. Used for retaining walls, riverbank and slope protection, flood channels and road embankments.
Revet mattresses are the same mesh spread over a large plan area at low thickness. Internal diaphragms keep the stone in place on slopes and under flowing water, for channel beds, shorelines and embankments.

Euro Revet Mattress
A wide, shallow gabion: the same mesh spread over a large plan area at low thickness. Internal diaphragms divide it into cells so the stone stays in place on slopes and under flowing water. Lines channel beds, riverbeds, shorelines and embankments against scour.

EE-GB-03
Euro Reinforced Earth Unit
A gabion facing with a continuous mesh base panel running back into the compacted fill. The panel anchors the wall, so vertical-faced structures can be built without a mass-gravity section.
