The Value Of Time
We know you have enough to worry about when planning your event but much like the weather, sky-high costs and last minute surprises can really rain on your parade.
Our products benefit you and your business by offering one unique ingredient: the gift of time. Because weâre constantly working hard to make our structures affordable and our pricing transparent, it means that in the long run, you are given the gift of time because you invested in a quality product - no need to replace in a couple of years, no need to repair or replace any parts.
4 Ways We Help You Stand Out From The Crowd
The truth is, when presented with a new brief, a new client or a new event challenge (arenât they all challenging?) you find yourself at a cross road. At this point, the question is always: A) do we take the road where things have always been done the same way, or B) opt for the lesser explored road and create something unique and satisfying - for both you and your client.
In the ever-expanding event industry, you know all about what beating out the competition means and how important it is to do a better job than you did yesterday. Part of the secret to success is what you have on offer: friendly, helpful staff - tick; the best service - tick. But how about your selection of products to tantalize your customers?

Festival Fascinations
Music to our ears⌠Music festivals are at an all time high. If itâs bespoke entertainment that makes your music festival experience unique and memorable, then these guys are playing your tune! Itâs at these events that you really see how the event organisers and coordinators have applied themselves.
Theyâve got you covered and have considered all your wants and needs⌠even those things that you didnât know you needed or wanted! Perhaps one of the first questions those brains behind the scenes ask is: how can we help you make the most of your day? Is it a raincoat you need, perhaps a poncho or a pair of wellies? Or the other extreme - an umbrella or parasol for some sun protection?

A Ballast Guide
Definition: `Heavy material, such as gravel, sand, iron or lead, placed low on a structure to improve its stability. Something that gives stability or substanceâ.
For safe use, any environmentally susceptible structure should be anchored to the surface on which it has been installed. Variables such as environmental aggressors (wind and rain), engineering criteria (mainstay horizontal and vertical position, angle and ballast type) and surface types (dry or wet tar-surface, dry or wet concrete, smooth or rough surfaces, grass, dirt or gravel) are all taken into consideration. Written specifications for anchoring are conveyed via installation instructions from on-site engineers. Elements taken into consideration: * site wind exposure * Terrain category * Wind Region * 5 day forecast * duration of tent on site * soil density for staking (holding power) * soil water saturation (drought or muddy) * nearby structures (buildings, trees) * size of the tent (surface area) Ballasts should be placed on all four corners of a marquee (for example) however, if requested, additional smaller-sized anchor points can also be used, giving extra support for side walls. Every leg should have a ballast point, or the leg becomes a âfloatingâ leg and if exposed to high winds, becomes a danger. There are several anchoring options available for all surface types.
