Reno Mattress

Reno Mattresses, also referred to as rock mattresses, are thin, flexible rectangular mesh cages constructed from double twisted "DT" woven wire mesh. The cages are divided into cells and filled with rock to restrict movement during high-flow conditions. Due to their flexibility, these products are primarily utilised in hydraulic applications, such as weirs, and for scour protection along riverbanks and embankment stability in channel linings. Mattresses are capable of withstanding water velocities in excess of 6m/sec over extended periods.A Reno Mattress has various applications, including slope stabilization, stream bank protection, bridge protection, and erosion control.Their reliable, resilient structure provides exceptional structural integrity, preventing slippage or soil degradation.

Reno mattresses are filled with stones on site to create a flexible, permeable and monolithic structure, which can be used in river and canal bank protection works, as well as erosion control and scour protection of slopes.

Reno Mattresses are an optimal solution for hydraulic applications such as weirs. When used to protect rivers and streams, they form an essential line of defence, limiting scour and stream channel erosion. Reno mattresses are designed for longevity and low long-term maintenance. Hydraulic testing has demonstrated that by containing rock within the cells of the mattresses, the resistance to rock movement under high flows is significantly reduced, allowing for the use of smaller quantities of rock in channel lining works.

Reno Mattresses are ideal for a wide range of applications, including permanent protection and support solutions. They offer unparalleled convenience, affordability, and quality.
