We are Pumped. We create inflatable solutions for your creative problems. In an industry where it’s easy for creative dreams to be deflated by budget, feasibility and timescale, we believe our solutions will breathe life back into your project in a uniquely beautiful way, and keep everyone, well, pumped.


Your Ideas, inflated.

 

The Pumped attitude is that no brief is too big or too weird. Bring us your most imaginative briefs (the more unusual the better), and we’ll transform your concept into reality.

From customer brief, to design, to completed units, all manufacturing is done in-house at our state-of-the-art premises in Cape Town. Our skilful design team will work with you to visualise, and plan your project in 3D, before handing over the approved design to our stitchers to manufacture it to perfection. 

To achieve superior workmanship, we use highly-specialised equipment, including computerised cutting tables, digital printers, 3-D design packages, high-frequency (HF) welders, hot-wedge welders and dye sublimation printing.

 
 

 WHY INFLATE?

creative and design

- Superior detail to traditional staging, with full graphic print sublimation, and dyed or airbrushed finishes.

- While traditional building materials don’t lend themselves to curves – we can create the most shapely of structures. 

- Use UV paint to seamlessly transition your activation from day to night.

- Inbuilt UV lights allow products to be lit from within.

- Capacity to inflate sections individually, and on cue.

- Units can be designed so that fascias conceal solid structures such as stage sets or buildings.


Logistics

- No more need for huge crews – our products typically require a team of 4-6, depending on scale of the build.

- Our inflatables pack up small enough to be easily transported, nationally and internationally. This removes the need for fuel guzzling trucks, plus, where possible, we deliver by electric vans.

- The base of our inflatables mould to the ground, removing the need for a deck and a level surface.

- Forget extortionate storage costs – our products are easy and cost-effective to pack away.

Health and Safety

- UNITS CAN BE FR treated ON REQUEST.

- if needed We can provide structural calculations for large outdoor units. 

- Our units are continually pumped through with cold air. This means that even in the rare event of a puncture, the structure stays inflated.

- Repairs are simple and fast – akin to patching a punctured bike tyre.

- Our inflatable units can be deflated and packed away within 20 minutes, even in high winds.

- Speaking of wind, our inflatables can withstand gusts of us to 25mph. They are both internally ballasted, and secured with ropes.


Cost

-Your product can be reused repeatedly, without needing to adapt it to individual site requirements.

- We can train your crew to install, further minimising logistics costs.

- Our units pack down to a pallet size, keeping shipping, haulage and storage costs nice and low.

- Cheap to air freight - your entire stage set can be in another country in a matter of hours – which comes in handy. 

- Minimal power requirement.
