Solutions for zoos and aviary buildings
Zoos are turning to Sprung to help increase revenue-generating activities through the addition of new buildings and spaces, including aviary structures. From exhibition spaces and event and entertainment centers to banquet facilities and specialty animal housing, Sprung structures are a fast and cost-effective way to add multi-use facilities to zoo grounds. While Sprung structures are permanent, they are also designed to be adaptable, which means they can be easily repurposed or moved as needs change.
Permanent and temporary enclosures
Sprung has provided fast and effective building solutions for many zoos across North America. Examples include the Buffalo Zoo’s walk-in interactive aviary building, which showcases over 300 birds native to the Australian outback. The National Aviary in Pittsburgh has also expanded its footprint by using a Sprung aviary structure as an on-site aviary enclosure.
In addition to aviary enclosures. Sprung structures have been used for retail space at the San Diego Zoo, exhibition space at the Toronto Zoo, elephant enclosures at the Edmonton Zoo, warehousing facilities at the San Francisco Zoo, and banquet spaces at the Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco.
Choose Sprung for zoo structures
Sprung structures provide much more appealing aesthetics when compared to conventional zoo tents. Our technology includes highly tensioned and extremely durable exterior membranes, optional insulation packages, high-visibility glazing walls, and a wide variety of door and exterior color choices.
All-weather aviary buildings
A Sprung structure is engineered for year-round use and is an ideal solution for multi-purpose zoo facilities and large-space zoo exhibits such as elephant enclosures, giraffe ranges and aviary structures. Our convenient in-house leasing option allows zoos to rent structures — for use as aviary enclosures or other applications — from one month to five years with the option to purchase. Zoos can also rent out their Sprung structures for special gatherings or corporate events, including weddings and parties. Contact us today to see how our solutions might work for your facilities.
