FINA World championships - Melbourne 2007

Giant Inflatables was honored to be chosen as the supplier of inflatable product for this prestigious event. The inflatable back screens which floated on the water at the water polo pool were a real challenge, with 20m of digitally printed signage trying to blow away in the wind.Luke Osland quipped (when we had sorted the problem out) “that’s why we use local suppliers”. It didn’t end there – for the event organizers had forgotten that the screen was higher than the winners’ podium and the cameras just couldn’t see though the huge inflatable wedge. So again another midnight service call took place to insert 6 deflation Zips into the unit so it could be deflated rapidly for the winners’ awards and re-inflate for the next round. Giant Inflatables also supplied the set of ‘Marker buoys’ for the open water swimming events for which the ‘branded inflatable arch’ was used as the start and finish line.

Spring carnival is just around the corner and “It’s bigger than you think” This is the slogan that generated this design that was used to launch the “spring racing carnival” in Melbourne . The show was ‘opened’ when this Giant Inflatable horse burst out from under a tarpaulin and inflated in 18 seconds.

Inflatable “Stage sets”

Image
The giant inflatables team excels when it comes to working in real time with a design for an inflatable stage set. It can never be totally pre-designed utilizing our state of the art 3D design software. For the inflatable stage set to have “magic” it gets lovingly grown by hand from the basic concept. It’s where science gives way to art.

Inflatable Wall at Federation Square

Image
With the increasing awareness and urgency for becoming energy efficient, the administration at Federation Square took the next step in bringing the heating costs of the atrium under control by commissioning Giant Inflatables to add an additional section to the inflatable wall that we build 3 years ago. The design brief was again to reflect the geometry of the building and to snuggly fit the removable inflatable wall to the existing structure to reduce the cold air draft that winter brings with it. It was a pleasure working with Peter Brace, of Federation Square Management who went out of his way to make sure that everything was ready for our team to perform the inflatable wall installation in a comfortable and hassle-free environment. Thanks.

Its so uplifting for our team when the sweat and effort we put in to ensuring our clients get more than they expect is rewarded. The reward from our client at National Foods was even more enriching because they gave us another product to replicate following on the success of the 1.5m high Orange Juice - Inflate and seal - adflatable - and the jumbo inflatables we made of their new Double shot coffee bottle. Our team really appreciates the recognition. Thanks
