Triton® Gabions and Triton® Gabion Mats
Triton® Gabions and Triton® Gabion Mats offer a durable, non-corrosive and installation-friendly alternative to conventional steel wire gabions, including galvanized and PVC-coated gabions. Constructed with Tensar® Geogrid, Triton® Gabions and Gabion Mats are available in prefabricated units or in standard roll form. Triton Gabions and Gabion Mats are specified for use where there is high potential for corrosion, including:
- Salt water environments
- De-icing salt/chemical runoff
- Acidic environments in mining operations
In addition to their corrosion resistance, the lightweight gabion and mat materials are ideal for use at remote locations, where site access is a significant challenge.
Triton Gabion Mats are used for:
- Channel linings, ditches and spillways
- Scour aprons
- Shoreline protection
- Canal and stream bank protection
Mat dimensions can be customized to limit waste and increase installation efficiency, while the grid aperture can be reduced to accommodate smaller stone fill, decreasing mat thickness. Lighter weight than metallic mats, Triton Gabion Mats are easier and less costly to transport, handle and install.
