Bank stabilization may involve
the construction of a retaining structure that should not
only effect the natural filtration between the watercourse
and the bank, but also guarantee the required consolidation.
Furthermore, the presence of
sub-grades and banks, that are normally saturated or which
have unpredictable erosion phenomena, make the application
of flexible structures a necessity. They must be able to
withstand differential settlement without losing their
structural integrity.
Gabion structures are the
ideal solution on account of their flexibility, natural
drainage capacity due to the stone filling, and the high
structural resistance.

Ocean Caraibes are agents for Maccaferri the folks who
invented the gabion backsets over 100 years ago. Maccaferri
gabions are fabricated from high quality steel wire where
long term durability is guaranteed by galvanizing with a
zinc 1 aluminum-MM alloy (Galfan), that can be further
protected by a polymeric coating and all of which comply
with the highest international standards.
