Fabric Structures for Aircraft Hangars and Airport Terminals
Fabric structures are the perfect solution when you are planning to acquire an aircraft hangar, a cargo facility or an airport terminal such as an arrival/departure building but are not sure about its long term use or location. Our semi-permanent structures are designed for permanent use but they perfectly adapt to your changing business environment because you can move them to another location. This is possible because of our membrane-to-frame technology. Both standard and custom designed structures are truly modular: they can be both extended or relocated.
In cooperation with business partners we also deliver turnkey service upon your request. This means e.g. the completion of our structures with lighting, doors, heating, ventilation and other services.
A dedicated project team designs and engineers custom fabric structure solutions that answer your needs for hangars, cargo handling facilities, temporary terminal structures, storage for ground support equipment or e.g. security screening.
Aircraft hangars
With our fabric structures, we have a durable and uncomplicated hangar solution for your aircrafts with wingspan sizes up to ca. 46 m.
Our aluminum framed TFS (Tension Fabric Structure) can be designed as a temporary hangar for aircraft maintenance on the spot or as a permanent hangar solution from a sun shade type up to a hangar equipped with doors, HVAC, lighting and insulation package. The unique roof shape design of our TFS enables its use at the most harsh locations in the world. No super heavy steel truss structure is required to resist to high snow loads as the TFS sheds snow. Transport is very efficient. It requires up to 6 times less space compared to an equivalent sized steel hangar.
In case local regulations or customer specifications require a steel hangar solution, our SFS (Steel Fabric Structure) can provide you the solution you are looking for.
At existing airports, implementing a new hangar is not an easy task as it has to comply with many airport regulations. Limited radar visibility is one important aspect. Here our fabric structures give you more freedom to choose a location because our structural membranes are radar transparent. With a TFS or SFS hangar you have an option to deviate from the regulated height restrictions of structures close to the airstrip.
