Mattress gabion JUMBO

Maccaferri Jumbo Gabions are used on large scale civil engineering projects where large volumes of gabions are to be constructed. Identical in concept to our regular gabions, Jumbo Gabions are just much larger! They enable the contractor to install gabion units faster and more efficiently, due to the economies of scale of the units and construction process. Delivered flat-packed, our gabions are assembled and then filled with stones at the project site. Maccaferri gabion baskets are made from high quality steel wire, which is heavily galvanised to provide long term corrosion protection. An additional protective polymeric coating is also applied for gabions that are to be used in more aggressive environments, or where a longer design life is required. In order to reinforce the structure, all mesh panel edges are selvedged with a wire having a greater diameter. Our new PA6 polymer coating has been added to our range of protective coatings to offer a solution to those projects that require improved environmental and technical performance to the existing PVC and HDPE coated mesh products on the market. Maccaferri gabions are manufactured in our factories around the world. The management and production system in many of our factories is certified in compliance with ISO 9001. In selected factories, the gabion mesh is produced in compliance with CPR – Construction Product Regulation 305/2011, having EC marking in compliance with ETA-09/0414. The management and production system is certified in compliance with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 (related to the environmental management system).
