Bent Glass Exhibit

When Auckland Zoo commissioned the refurbishment of their Pride Lands exhibit, the brief was simple – the best possible viewing experience without compromising guest or animal safety. Our commercial bent glass – TemperShield® – was skillfully installed into natural rock to provide the perfect solution giving visitors an experience of being almost in the Pride Lands themselves. Walking around a convex curved enclosure in one instance and to be enveloped in a concave one the next adds a sense of inclusiveness that flat panels simply cannot deliver; and at 19mm (3/4″)thick, security is never compromised.

“I found Glasshape an absolute pleasure to deal with. Their level of professionalism from initial contact through to glass delivery was second to none. This was our first curved glass project and I don’t think that we could have picked a better organisation to assist us. The digital measure service also provided by Glasshape removed any margin of error and gave us complete confidence in the ordering process. We will not hesitate to use them again in the future.”
