For corporations, universities, clubs or associations in need of a tent or enclosure for an event, there are few better choices than an inflatable structure. And there are none better inflatable tent system than the products available from X-Gloo. The X-Gloo system is designed with portability and ease of set-up in mind. Unlike older style inflatables, X-Gloo models are sleek and modern. This is achieved by using materials and design principles used in paragliding and kite boarding. The use of this material mean more space can be covered with significantly less bulk and weight.

One of the benefits of using an inflatable event tent is impact. The high-domed structures are quickly noticeable and are therefore ideal to attract visitors at any large indoor or outdoor gathering. The trade-off previously was the effort to set-up and break down these structures. Older inflatables use heavy polyvinyl material that requires considerable planning for transport and set-up.

The design and materials used in these systems also necessitates that the side supports be bulky, taking up valuable space. Also, to achieve the rigidity necessary to keep these older structures standing, powerful blowers are required to inflate the structure. This makes them less than ideal for many events.

The X-Gloo system resolves these issues by using superior design and materials. Taking cues from the lightweight but rigid sails used in paragliding and kite boarding, the designers at X-Gloo significantly reduced the size of the supports, but maintained the strength and rigidity needed to provide a stable structure. The interior of the four corner supports are made of highly flexible TPU tubing which provides a strong and rigid support system when inflated. The tubes are further stabilized with Dacron cloth.

The other result of this design and use of materials is that the structural members are much smaller than other inflatable event tents. This means significant weight reduction. The typical X-Gloo inflatable weights about 20kg and even the largest 6m x 6m tent is only 28kg. This light weight makes the system easy to transport and get to the set-up location. This makes it ideal for promotional use where often the location is away from an unloading area, such as on a beach, park or at a stadium.

Visibility and brand impact is another area in which X-Gloo inflatables are superior to other tents and enclosures. The shape allows for full 360 degree visibility of any signage or artwork to reinforce branding and messaging. The material used on the tent provides a fabulous canvas for vivid color printing. Just about any design can be incorporated onto the X-Gloo enclosure. X-Gloo event tents also have interchangeable side enclosures. This allows for different branding and messaging to be incorporated for different event types.

The X-Gloo inflatable event tent is a true innovation. Check out this X-Gloo video to see how easy it is to transport and set-up this enclosure system. X-Gloo tents are also modular so they can be combined in almost infinite combinations to adapt to any space. Simply stated, the X-Gloo is the premier inflatable event tent on the market today.
