Wedge Group Galvanizing breathes new life in to half a tonne of spike chain surrounding the village green.
When travel restrictions were finally lifted, and the animals scanned in June/July 2002, their keepers were thrilled (and amazed) to learn that both were pregnant and the race was on to get a new elephant enclosure and penning finished in time for the arrival of the two calves, due in early 2003.
RE Buildings, which also built the Safari Park's rhino and giraffe houses, is one of the leading manufacturers of agricultural buildings and a winner of Business Link North's 'Rural Business of the Year.' The company uses Pillar Wedge extensively for its galvanizing requirements.
Company spokesperson Hazel Ronson commented: 'The quality of the galvanizing supplied by Pillar Wedge helps us sell our product and is a key part of our success story.'.
