Colchester Zoo asked for a lecture theatre with a natural, environmentally sensitive feel reflecting the conservation aspects of this internationally acclaimed Conservation Zoo.
To meet this requirement, Fordingbridge provided a building with an insulated composite deck roof with timber clad side walls.
This project demonstrates how, with our skilful and innovative in-house design team, we are able to design and build unique structures to suit al sorts of customer requirements.
Another Fordingbridge insulated building has been constructed, in a Zoo, to form a part of an Iguana House in which a controlled environment was required for the reptiles’ survival. In this case a high light insulated building with maximum solar gains and heat retention in winter was required in order to ensure that the reptiles would remain active and visible.
One of our insulated buildings, of elegant circular form, can be found in use as a Visitor Centre housing imaginative educational displays, and a retail area.
Insulated buildings can be designed and built to conform to the highest environmental standards using re-cycleable materials with maximum energy conservation properties.
For:
retail buildings
lecture theatres
libraries
offices
public sector buildings
visitor centres
and indeed Iguana Houses
Fordingbridge has the right design and build solution – whatever your application.
