Innovative Air Domes For Flexible Space Solution
The air dome is a contemporary, inflatable construction with flexible design and energy efficiency.
Features of Shelter Structures' Air Dome
Advanced Materials
We use premium PVDF coated or PVC coated fabrics to manufacture the air dome. This material guarantees durability and stability. With a lifespan of about 25 years, it makes the air dome last for a long time.
Technological Innovations
To improve the performance of our air domes, Shelter Structures made a lot of innovations in technology. As a result, the tent has intelligent controls for air quality, temperature, and humidity.
Professional After-Sales Services
Whether there is a problem with using your air domes or damaged components, our professional after-sales team will always be there to help you solve your problems.
Reliable & Durable
Based on internal experimental data, our air domes show great performance in terms of explosion, wind, and snow resistance. The vast majority of accidents and bad weather cannot invade these tents.
Safety Warning
An alarm system protects workers from harmful substances. If toxic gas concentrations reach a high level, this system will trigger alarms and takes safety measures.
Customization Options
You can choose from various sizes, shapes, and configurations of the air dome according to your different needs.

Air-Supported Dome Structure
- Supported by Air Pressure: Generally made with a single-layer or double-layer fabric envelope. These envelopes are inflated with air to create a pressurized space. The stability of this dome structure is maintained by slightly higher air pressure inside.
- Usages: These structures are usually used as sports facilities, swimming pools, and long-term warehouses.
- Site Requirements: They need controlled entrances and exits to maintain air pressure. The length of the site should preferably exceed 50 meters
Air-Inflated Dome Structure
- Inflatable Design: Air-inflated structures create space by inflating beams, arches, and walls. The air-inflated dome structures serve as the load-bearing element of the structure, offering self-supporting properties.
- Usages: They are ideal for bouncy castles, escape slides, and temporary warehouses.
- Site Requirements: They don’t need any entrances and exits. They are suitable for venues less than 50 meters in length.

Integrated Smart Systems for Air Dome
Anchoring Base System
The anchoring system evenly distributes uplift forces on the PVDF fabric, ensuring uniform air dome load distribution. So it effectively increases stability of the tent.
Mechanical Control System
The air dome has a mechanical system for energy efficiency. This system includes inflation, fresh air, air conditioning, temperature, humidity control, and backup power supply to ensure people’s safety.
Steel Cable Reinforcement System
The air dome has a steel cable system to reduces the external load of the PVDF fabric. This makes the air dome more resistant to wind, snow, earthquakes, and pressure.
Smart Control System
The intelligent control system helps you to check the status of the air dome anytime. This makes it easy for you to identify problems with your tent and take maintenance measures in a timely manner.
Power backup System
Our backup power system keeps the air dome running safely. This system automatically switches to a diesel generator during a power outage to keep the air dome running.
Intelligent Snow Removal System
The PLC control system manages snow removal blower and deicing spray systems based on snowfall. If there is too much snow, the snow sensors in the air dome will alert.
