An elegant enclosure for elegant animals

Royal Zoo Artis

The sleek yet attractive enclosure offers a home for jaguars and leopards.

Webnet’s flexibility and customised production by Jakob Rope Systems made the difference in this case and contributed to the elegant design of this enclosure. Instead of rectangular standard shapes, Jakob Rope Systems supplied specially shaped nets. Together with the black colour of the net structure, this ensures that the elegance of the enclosure structure matches the elegance of the animals living within.
