Nestclad’s Bee Nest Brick Support provides a safe and sustainable nesting solution for solitary bees within modern building facades. Designed to integrate seamlessly with your rainscreen cladding system, our bee nest bricks feature a versatile carrier system and bespoke brick options to match your building’s aesthetic. This ensures a cohesive design and enhances biodiversity within modern landscapes.
Solitary bees, comprising over 250 species in the UK alone, are vital pollinators for a wide range of plants, including many of our food crops. Habitat loss due to urbanisation and agricultural practices, along with widespread pesticide use, significantly threatens these essential insects. Unlike honeybees, solitary bees nest individually, often creating cavities in soft ground, stems, or dead wood. Nestclad’s Bee Nest Brick Support offers a safe and sustainable solution to restore nesting opportunities for solitary bees within modern building facades.
Each bee nest brick is constructed with natural clay, offering ideal nesting cavities for various solitary bee species. Cavity sizes may vary depending on the type; please consult Nestclad for specific product details.

Cladmate offers a unique and innovative bird nest solution designed explicitly for rainscreen cladding applications. While many existing solutions are tailored for masonry construction, they often have limited applicability for modern and highrise buildings that use cladding systems. Cladmate has developed a bespoke nesting unit designed fodeclining bird
species to address this. This unit integrates seamlessly into your cladding, remaining unobtrusive and enabling you to build with nature in mind.
Countless bird species, including sparrows, starlings, and swifts, naturally nest in holes, crevices, wal withing our built environments. However, advancements in construction methods have reduced defects in outer walls, leading to fewer nesting and sheltering spaces. This habitat loss has significantly contributed to the decline of these once-common species.
By incorporating Cladmate’s Bird Nest solution into your building, you can support biodiversity without compromising aesthetics or functionality. Carefully designed to meet the nesting needs of these birds, the units are constructed from durable stainless steel and materials that offer optimal thermal properties for comfort, providing them with a secure and comfortable refuge.
