Event Marquees
Our event marquees combine structural integrity with aesthetic flexibility for weddings, corporate functions, and festivals. Constructed from 6082 T6 aluminium frames and 650g/m fire-retardant PVC, these clear-span structures withstand 70mph winds and 0.2kN/m snow loads. Modular 3m-15m widths allow custom configurations for capacities ranging from 50 to 5,000 guests, with rapid assembly systems eliminating dangerous roof work during installation.
Warehouse Structures
Heavy-duty temporary warehouses provide secure storage for industrial equipment, vehicles, and agricultural produce. Available in 6m-15m widths with eave heights up to 4.5m, these structures use galvanised steel connectors and reinforced PVC covers. Engineered for 70mph wind resistance, they feature 2.5m extension bays for length customisation and meet BS EN 1991-1-4 safety standards for commercial applications.
Bespoke Designs
Tailored marquee systems address unique architectural challenges or branding requirements. Our design team utilises CAD software to create non-standard geometries, including hexagonal layouts and multi-level configurations. Specialised components like hip gables and decahedron connectors maintain structural integrity while achieving distinctive visual identities for high-profile events.
Accessories
Comprehensive accessory range enhances functionality and aesthetics. Includes interlocking flooring systems for uneven ground, blackout linings for lighting control, high-peak roof extensions for vehicle access, and stake pullers for rapid ground anchoring. All components are designed for seamless integration with primary structures.
Technical Support
Full technical assistance covers structural calculations, site assessments, and assembly guidance. Clients receive detailed engineering specifications, including load-bearing capacities and wind resistance data. Emergency spare parts dispatch within 24 hours ensures minimal operational disruption for critical installations.
