Bespoke interior, exhibition and exterior fabric structures

What we do

We design, manufacture and install bespoke/custom made tensile fabric structures for interior, exhibition or exterior use.

Providing simple but sensible design advice, our initial consultation with the client offers information on both design details with examples of past installations to guide the process. We will then provide budgets and quotations with confirming sketches or visuals.

Once design and budget is approved we will manufacture the item which can require a number of processes for example aluminum or steel work, fabric construction and printing. Our riggers will then install the bespoke fabric item at a time appropriate to you.

We have categorized our three bespoke business areas into Interior, Exhibition and Exterior tensile structures - which inturn are split depending on the type of application.

Tensile fabric will be designing, manufacturing and delivering the canopy whilst the experienced client used to dealing with such products are happy to install the canopy themselves.

Blackberry Exhibition Canopies

[Completed]
For the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona 2010 Tensile Fabric were asked to create a number of Tensile Fabric features for Blackberry by Shelton Flemming.


The first feature was a number of classic conical shapes to both disguise the existing wall columns and create a great feature. These cones were internally lit via high and low level lighting accessible through vertical zips in the fabric. Further cone shapes were used to draw attention to the products else ware on the stand space.


Large ceiling elements were also installed to enclose the space and provide light reflectance using a white fabric - providing a very clean space.


Lanterns were also commissioned as part of the design - internally lit, they reinforced the Blackberry logo as well as adding high level colour.
