Standing Tall in the World’s Most Extreme Conditions
Sprung tensioned membrane structures endure. By design, the fabric structure sheds snow, withstands extremely high winds and shows a remarkable resistance to earthquakes.
Sprung structures are engineered to last. Their unique shape and sophisticated tension system, made up of individual 4.5 meter membrane panels tensioned both vertically and horizontally, make them more durable in extreme conditions — be it a frozen ice field or an active war zone.
Our sophisticated patented tensioning system combined with Sprung's superior quality membranes and extruded aluminum substructure ensures a durable finished product that dramatically outperforms any product of its type in the world.
