prevent erosion with reno mats

Reno Mats along with gabion baskets offer excellent protection as soil erosion stabilizers around bridges, bridge piers and  slopes. Reno mats are a low profile gabion made of galvanized or galvanized and PVC coated double-twisted wire mesh and filled with rocks. These Reno mats are available in various length, widths and height. The most common sizes are : 12’x 6′, 9’x6′ and 6’x6′  with depths of 6″, 9″ or 12″. We also supply Reno mats in rolls to lenghts up to 100′ long.  

Generally, the degree of the slope to be protected shall determine what structure type is best suited for a specific application.

Slopes with an angle of 1:1 or steeper usually  require standard gabion retaining wall protection. Slopes with an angle of 1:1.5 or less may use a combination of gabion baskets and REno mats for slope protection.

Reno Mats are double twisted hexagonal woven galvanized or galvanized and PVC steel wire mesh compartmented basket with a low profile, rectangular mattress shape. The compartment or cells of the reno mattress are of equal size and dimension and are formed by internal diaphragms being placed within the basket providing even distribution of the stone fill throughout the mattress even after structural movement. Even distribution of the stone fill ensures that the reno mattress maintains intimate contact with the foundation soil.
