Built-in bricks for bats

Vivara Pro’s Built-in bricks bats provide practical, easy to use, and architecturally integrated solutions for creating safe roosting spaces for bats within modern buildings. Designed to be built directly into walls and facades, these purpose-made roosting features allow developers, architects, and ecologists to incorporate long-term biodiversity enhancements into construction and renovation projects. All Vivara Pro Built-in bricks bats are made in in-house, here in Europe, ensuring high quality, durability, and compliance with both UK and European conservation standards.

Practical, durable roosting solutions for bats

Developed in collaboration with ecologists and construction professionals, Vivara Pro’s Built-in bricks bats are engineered to provide secure, thermally stable roosts that support a range of bat species found across the UK.

• Practical designs that fit seamlessly into standard brickwork or blockwork.
• Constructed from weather-resistant, breathable materials such as woodstone (also known as woodcrete or wood concrete).
• Easy to use installation process — no special tools or structural alterations required.
• Provide long-term roosting opportunities without compromising building aesthetics or performance.

Each unit has been tested in the field to ensure optimal conditions for bats, offering insulation, airflow, and protection from predators and disturbance.

Why use built-in bat bricks?

As natural roosting sites in trees and older buildings become increasingly scarce, Built-in bricks bats provide an effective way to restore lost habitats within urban and suburban settings.

• Help meet biodiversity net gain (BNG) and planning policy requirements for wildlife-friendly design.
• Offer permanent, maintenance-free roosting opportunities integrated directly into buildings.
• Support the long-term conservation of protected bat species across the UK.

For urban planners, ecologists, and local authorities, these solutions offer a proven, low-impact way to integrate biodiversity measures into construction projects while maintaining architectural quality and compliance with legislation.
