Breedon Gravel – The winning choice for zoos and wildlife parks

 

For many years we have supplied our Breedon Golden Amber self-binding material to zoos, safari parks, animal sanctuaries and wildlife centres across the UK.

The natural, yet durable properties of our limestone quarried here at Breedon Quarry in south Derbyshire make it the product of choice for these attractions.

 

 

Perfectly accessible year-round for all users, including buggies and wheelchair users, our crushed and graded material is ideal to surface heavily used footpaths without having to resort to bitumen-based products – therefore, in keeping with the natural surroundings.

As well as appearing on walkways and car parks, Breedon Gravel is also widely used in various animal enclosures.  From giraffes to tortoises, zebras to meerkats – it is 100% natural – making it a safe material for all habitats.

Breedon Special Aggregates have supplied Chester Zoo, London Zoo, West Midlands Safari Park and Yorkshire Wildlife Park to name a few.  More locally to us, Twycross Zoo use Breedon Gravel extensively throughout their site.

 

 

The latest addition to Twycross zoo was the Gruffalo Discovery Land where the pathways snaking through the space were surfaced in Breedon Gravel, it also includes an auditorium where the product was selected to tie in with the newly constructed footpaths.

If you would like to find out more about using our natural products in settings such as these please do get in touch with us and we will happily provide all the information you need to assist with your plans.
