Mammal Ledges & Shelves 

Althon have just launched a new range of mammal ledges in GRP and mammal shelves in HDPE. 

Mammal shelves and ledges can be installed on new or existing culverts and allow animals such as badgers, otters and other wildlife to pass through culverts or under bridges reducing the risk of drowning in the culvert or river.

Please visit the mammal shelves and ledges section of our website for more information or for pricing please contact our sales team by email sales@althon.co.uk or by telephone on 01603 488700
