Design & Performance
Technical details, installation guidance and specification information
Designed for Compliance and Performance
The Habibat 003 conforms to BS 42021:2022, supporting best practice in biodiversity and ensuring suitability for UK construction projects.
Manufactured from non-toxic, lightweight insulating concrete, it provides a thermally stable and durable roosting environment while integrating seamlessly into the building fabric.
