Restoring the Penguin Pool | Coffs Coast Wildlife Sanctuary

4 August 2025

Restoring the Penguin Pool | Coffs Coast Wildlife Sanctuary

When it comes to a pool housing penguins, repairs are anything but typical.

We recently worked with Coffs Coast Wildlife Sanctuary, supplying a specialised relining product to solve ongoing problems with their penguin pool. Previous patch repairs had led to cracks, causing significant water leakage and raising concerns for both maintenance and the penguins’ wellbeing. Given the sensitive environment, choosing the right solution was essential.

Durability and Safety First
We needed a coating that could withstand constant saltwater exposure, be completely safe for the resident wildlife, and complement the sanctuary’s natural setting.

A Wildlife-Friendly Solution
Using our high-performance product, applied by the sanctuary’s skilled team, the penguin pool is now fully sealed, durable, and environmentally safe—offering a secure habitat that supports both operational needs and animal welfare.

A huge thank you to Tiga and the team at Coffs Coast Wildlife Sanctuary for trusting us with such a unique and rewarding project. If you haven’t been, make sure you visit, they’re doing incredible work for our native wildlife.

Whether it’s working around wildlife or solving complex water issues, our team brings the right skills, products, and problem-solving mindset to get it done.
