various exotic plants in the glasshouse. Despite temperatures hitting peaks of 53
degrees Celsius outside, the indoor climate is carefully controlled.
With innovative climate systems and high-quality installations, we can properly
regulate the temperature and humidity, which means that plants from all over
the world can be found in this beautiful enormous botanical garden.

PORTAL FRAMES – Wildlands adventure zoo
Two projects for new zoo Wildlands
At the tropical adventure park Wildlands you can visit „Rimbula‟. This huge glass
construction is the new home for birds, monkeys and elephants. At around two
hectares in size, 23 metres in height and situated 4 metres under the building
line, this enormous glasshouse is unique in Europe. Smiemans is responsible for
the 6,200 m² curtain wall, made from polycarbonate because of its excellent
insulation properties, transparency and favourable pricing.

Butterfly temple with large farming areas
The smaller glasshouse of 1,100 m² has a higher section accommodating a
butterfly house and a habitat for other reptiles, as well as a lower section which
is 200 m² in size. This is intended for the cultivation of plants, caterpillars and
butterflies. Smiemans built the whole project: the steel construction work, the
curtain walls and the roof.

Imitation of Tropical climate with enough daylight
The greenhouse construction was provided with a special 3-layer ETFE foil
(inflatable cushions). This special foil allows not only daylight, but the complete
light spectrum. In addition, the system offers excellent insulation, allowing the
tropical climate to be well simulated. These matters are essential for tropical
plants and animals in the greenhouse. One really experiences the feeling of
being outside!

Many benefits of ETFE foil
The glass construction with ETFE foil was a conscious choice with many
advantages;
a lot of natural daylight;
the insulation saves energy;
the butterflies can survive because of the full light spectrum;
the feeling of being outside;
imitation of the tropical climate in which the animals normally live;
the special 3-layer foil is extremely hard-wearing and UV-resistant.
