Military Defensive Barrier HMIL-7

At HeslyGabion^® we provide confidence through the quality of design, development and manufacture of each product. From flood to military operations, procurement professionals can specify our GABION products for multiple applications, confident in their ability to protect personnel, property or environments.

The HMIL Bastion Barrier unit is a multi-cellular barrier system manufactured from welded zinc-aluminum coated steel wire mesh and joined with vertical, helical-coil joints. The units are lined with a heavy-duty non-woven polypropylene geotextile. When joined and filled, the system can be used to create barriers of exceptional strength and structural integrity.

All HMIL Defensive Barrier products are pre-assembled and delivered palletised with joining pins, to enable the connection of individual units, which can then be filled with available material using minimal manpower and commonly available equipment. Protection is afforded by the fill material of the structure as a consequence of its mass and physical properties, allied with the proven dynamic properties of Concertainer units.

The standard HMIL Blast Wall unit was enhanced years ago with the introduction of the recoverable range of HMIL units. Available in the same range of sizes, and deployed and filled in exactly the same way as standard HMIL units, recoverable HMIL allows for easy removal of a barrier at the end of its use. A game changer in expeditionary operations.

Assembling the Blast Wall entails unfolding it and (if available) using a front end loader to fill it with sand, dirt or gravel. The placement of the barrier is generally very similar to the placement of a sandbag barrier or earth berm except that room must generally be allowed for the equipment used to fill the barrier. The main advantage of Gabion Barrier, strongly contributing to their popularity with troops and flood fighters,Military bastion, is the quick and easy setup. Previously, people had to fill sandbags, a slow undertaking, with one worker filling about 20 sandbags per hour. Workers using Defensive Barrier and a front end loader can do ten times the work of those using sandbags.
