Introduction to our Products
All of our products are hand made in the UK of high quality materials and are compliant with BS42021:2022.
The AfS S-Brick is our most popular product, being easy to install and providing a secure nest box that lasts the lifetime of the building - perfect for birds that return to the same site each year.
With its thin-walled nest chamber it takes a small amount of space in the wall while providing more than sufficient space for the birds. Wholly made of durable materials, the AfS S-Brick will last the lifetime of the building.
Standard AfS S-Bricks come in three sizes and a choice of facings. Bespoke configurations can also be supplied.
Internally the nest-chamber is furnished with a 3mm cement-fibreboard rough, absorbent floor. A plywood nest-form is attached to the floor.
