Enhancing Wildlife Habitats with SentryGlas: Our Latest Project at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of our latest project at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, where we had the privilege of enhancing the grizzly bear enclosure with several pieces of SentryGlas. This project stands as a testament to our commitment to combining safety, durability, and aesthetic excellence in all our installations.

Why SentryGlas?

SentryGlas is a high-performance interlayer for laminated glass that was originally developed to withstand the harshest conditions, including hurricanes. Its superior strength and durability make it an ideal choice for a variety of applications, including wildlife enclosures. Here’s why:

  • Unmatched Strength and Durability: SentryGlas is significantly stronger and more durable than conventional laminated glass. This ensures the highest level of safety for both the animals and visitors, withstanding impacts that would shatter regular glass.
  • Enhanced Safety: The primary concern in any wildlife enclosure is the safety of both the animals and the visitors. SentryGlas provides an extra layer of protection, significantly reducing the risk of breakage and potential injuries.
  • Superior Visibility: Traditional materials can often impede the view, but SentryGlas offers unparalleled clarity. This allows for a more immersive and engaging viewing experience for zoo visitors, bringing them closer to the animals without compromising safety.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond its functional benefits, SentryGlas also enhances the overall aesthetic of the enclosure. Its clear, unobstructed views help create a more natural and pleasing environment for the animals, while also making the habitat more visually appealing to visitors.

The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo Project

Our team worked diligently to install SentryGlas in the grizzly bear enclosure, ensuring that every piece was perfectly fitted to meet the highest standards of safety and visibility. The result is a stunning enclosure that allows visitors to observe these magnificent creatures in a way that is both safe and engaging.

The grizzly bears now enjoy a habitat that not only meets their physical needs but also allows for more natural behavior and interaction with their environment. For the visitors, the enhanced visibility means a more enjoyable and educational experience, fostering a greater appreciation for wildlife and conservation efforts.
