When it comes to climate protection and improving living environments, building renovations and modernisations are absolutely essential. Unfortunately, however, those responsible for such projects often face challenges with regard to the topic of species protection.
If building renovations limit the living space of protected animals, compensatory measures must be implemented in accordance with the German Federal Nature Conservation Act. This requirement applies to animals such as various species of birds and bats, whose nesting places are closed up and sleeping locations are blocked off or even destroyed.
Our solution to this problem has been given a very fitting name: the “clinker nesting brick”.
This special module acts as an ideal replacement habitat for not one but many species of animals. The clinker nesting brick enables users to support species protection while ensuring that their construction work complies with the statutory regulations. The different modules can be adapted to suit every building envelope in terms of appearance. They perfectly meet the needs of the animals living in building façades while meeting official requirements at the same time.

Swift colony in Rhede fully
accepts nesting boxes made of clinker bricks
A current example of successful architectural integration and rapid acceptance of the new habitats by a colony of swifts is the new residential buildings on Eichendorfstraße in Rhede (to the expert report). Bocholter Heimbau eG, together with the architectural firm Derksen + Ritte, was the first to plan and install 120 nesting bricks there. The client, planners and the entire neighbourhood are delighted.
