We are Strata
Hello,
Let’s reach new heights together with Strata Climbing Walls.
Hello,
Based in Barry, South Wales, Strata Climbing Walls is driven by a profound love for the sport of climbing and a mission to make it accessible to all. For over a decade, we’ve been at the forefront of constructing climbing walls across the UK. From small community projects to expansive commercial facilities, our expertise and dedication have helped us leave our mark on the climbing world. At Strata Climbing Walls, we don’t just build walls; we build opportunities for adventure, challenge, and growth. Join us in our mission to democratise climbing and create a vibrant, inclusive community of climbers.
Let’s reach new heights together with Strata Climbing Walls.
Where did our name come from?
Situated on the Vale of Glamorgan’s Heritage Coast, our workshop is surrounded by a breathtaking array of rocky formations. These cliffs, standing as imposing monuments, command attention, yet some prove unsuitable for climbers due to their unstable nature. Nevertheless, their sheer heights, often surpassing 100 feet, are a testament to nature’s grandeur. Comprised of carboniferous limestone, these rocks exhibit captivating layers, typical of
sedimentary formations. In geological terms, this distinctive layering is aptly termed “stratum,” commonly recognised as “Strata.”
Environmental Conscience
Rock climbing frequently leads us to some of the Earth’s most stunning natural landscapes, fostering a profound connection with nature and instilling in us a deep appreciation for its fragility. At Strata Climbing Walls, we are committed to preserving and respecting the environment in all our endeavours. That’s why we prioritise responsibly sourced wood for our constructions, support local businesses by purchasing fixings and fasteners nearby, and diligently recycle all packaging and leftover materials whenever feasible. By embracing sustainable practices, we strive to minimise our ecological footprint and ensure that our passion for climbing harmonises with our commitment to environmental stewardship.
