Topeka Zoological Park - Rain Forest Dome Upgrades

How does one know when it is time to replace the glazing on a tropical rain forest? Perhaps when the facility exceeds 40 years old and the acrylic panels are becoming hazy and cracked. Maybe then the time is right. 

Such is the case with the Tropical Rain Forest Exhibit at the Topeka Zoological park. As residents patiently wait, KBS Employees are quickly replacing the glazing panels at the facility.

Of course you might still wonder if the expense of restoring the dome is really necessary.

Then you see the difference new acrylic panels make. 

Re-glazing work underway

Make plans to come by the Topeka Zoological Park this summer. Experience the refurbished Tropical Rain Forest Exhibit and see the plants and animals again, this time in all their splendor.
