Custom Metalwork & Balustrading System from Stainform

Taronga Zoological Park

Working closely with the architect and zoo representatives, we fabricated all metalwork components of the project to custom designs.

For this cutting-edge, 500k+ project, we fabricated a range of complex structures, comprising a new lemur enclosure at the Taronga Zoological Park. Five years in the planning, the exhibit is the first of its kind in Australia. Opportunities for observation, active play and education are incorporated into one innovative, interactive space.

The lemur containment structure and accompanying night den include floor and roof framing, floor grating, gates, mesh panels and hatches. Balustrades and handrails blend seamlessly with the sensitive heritage environment. A spiral staircase provides access to an interactive visitor platform. Suspended above the platform is a 4m x 2m brass waterfall roof and soffit.
