Bat Boxes
Integrated bat boxes provide secure roosting opportunities within the building structure, helping developments support protected species without disturbing residents or changing the appearance of the property.
Building Habitats for Wildlife-Friendly Developments
Building habitats into new homes, commercial projects and public spaces is now an essential part of responsible construction. With Biodiversity Net Gain becoming a key requirement for new developments, integrated wildlife habitats offer a practical way to support nature without compromising the design, durability or appearance of a building.
Building wildlife-friendly habitats
TBS Cladding Solutions Building Habitat range has been developed to make it easier for wildlife to coexist with human development. Bee habitat bricks, bat boxes and swift boxes can be discreetly built into new structures, creating safe spaces for important UK species..
Thoughtfully integrated habitats bring wildlife into residential spaces, giving people a closer connection to nature while helping native species thrive for generations to come.
Our Habitat Product Range
Safe, discreet and easy-to-install building habitats for bees, bats, swifts, hedgehogs, sparrows and starlings.
Swift Boxes
Swift boxes create long-term nesting opportunities for swifts, sparrows and starlings. They are discreetly incorporated into the building fabric to help tackle the loss of traditional nesting sites.
Bee Habitat Bricks
Bee habitat bricks are built directly into walls to provide safe nesting spaces for solitary bees. They blend into the surrounding brickwork while supporting vital pollinators and local biodiversity for smaller wildlife.
Unobtrusive by design.
EcoHabitats integrate discreetly into the finished build, adding meaningful ecological value without compromising its appearance or quality.
Simple to install.
No specialist training or additional equipment required. A practical solution for housebuilders, contractors and sustainable construction projects.
Built for wildlife.
Hedgehog-friendly gravel boards connect gardens and green spaces, helping create safe wildlife corridors throughout residential developments.
Habitats for a Nature-Positive Future
Our investment in eco-habitats provides new developments with safe, usable spaces for wildlife, complementing broader ecological objectives such as Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG). Developing product ranges that address habitat loss and promote local ecosystems is a key part of a responsible sustainability strategy.
By seamlessly integrating these habitats into walls, boundaries, and external spaces, developers can foster ecological connectivity and create environments where people and nature thrive together.

Why Building Habitats Matter
Building habitats are becoming a vital part of sustainable construction across the UK. As natural nesting spaces, roosting sites and wildlife corridors continue to disappear, the construction industry has an opportunity to design biodiversity into the places we build.
From bee habitat bricks and bat boxes to swift boxes and hedgehog-friendly gravel boards, these products help create essential habitats without disrupting the living spaces of residents. This thoughtful approach allows homeowners to enjoy nature close to home while quietly supporting wider environmental goals.
Building Habitat solutions make biodiversity-friendly design easier to achieve. They are durable, attractive, practical and suitable for new developments seeking to meet sustainability objectives, planning requirements and Biodiversity Net Gain commitments.
