HESCO Barriers Blast Wall is extensively used in the protection of personnel and key assets in military, peacekeeping, humanitarian and civilian operations.
- A pre-fabricated gabion of galvanised welded-mesh steel fitted with a UV-protected
- Polypropylene geo-textile liner.
- Filling material is an easily-obtained mix of sand and small stones.
- Can be connected together to any length, and can be stacked for additional height.
- Primary military use is as force protection against blast and projectiles.
- Other military uses include as barriers of all types including:
- general walling for sensitive and/or high-value installations,
- traffic control points such as check points or border points,
- aircraft revetments,
- ammunition and fuel storage bunding.
- Shipped and stored as a flat-pack unit.
- Faster to erect than sandbags:
