Freshers - with a new year starting for thousands of students, events are held to make them welcome and inflatable signs and inflatable messages play their part.
Tearfund, the Christian Relief Charity, publicised the issues of energy savings and climate change by displaying a 20ft tall Inflatable energy efficient Light Bulb in Trafalgar Square.
An inflatable 20ft Flying Foot filled with helium was recently used to good effect on the Channel 4 Dispatches programme. The programme was designed to illustrate individual Carbon Footprints.
Concept and Visualization After having received your initial enquiry, our input is immediate, offering practical applications to your projects combining design and artistic solutions. When a mutual agreement of the structure is decided a visual can then be provided and where appropriate this can be converted to a mock-up or full blown prototype.
Manufacture The process of manufacture and advice of fabric will depend on the type of inflatable being constructed. Consideration of the client's requirements is paramount and keeping them informed on progress of the manufacturing is seen as vitally important. For small point of sale items various thicknesses of PVC will be high frequency welded together to form the inflatable. Giant cold air inflatables will normally be constructed from strong lightweight nylon fabric, sewn together and fitted with an electric inflation fan blower.
Distribution and Installation Large inflatables and helium filled products can be operated easily if practical installation demonstrations are carried out. Merlin can offer this service either as an onsite installation by one of our team of skilled operators or an inhouse demo at our factory.
