InTents August/September 2019 - 21

"This, combined with the loading
features of the truss, means it can then
provide the support for hanging heavier
loads such as large screens, speakers and
branded displays that would otherwise
be impossible on a traditional marquee,"
Johnstone says. "Clients get more clearspan
internal space and greater height than
when using standard rigging poles. The
stretch tents lend beautiful organic lines
to the structure. The lexibility to add in
glassed walls or customize each individual
structure in keeping with each client's
requirements is a key feature, and the
inished look is then far more attractive,
resulting in a superior 'premium' structure
in keeping with luxury brands."
The modular nature of the truss and
stretch tents allows them to be scaled to it
almost any size. Lewis says that securing

the tent to the truss is easy. "We don't have
to deal with dozens of ropes and knots,"
he says. "Our truss grid is great, as we
can place the push-up poles exactly where
we want them, and this does not affect the
activation happening under us."
"There really is no difference between
anchoring a truss/stretch tent structure
in comparison with a standard frame
tent," Johnstone adds. "There are some
clear advantages in that you can avoid any
unsightly guy wires or ratchet straps and
incorporate any ballast into the overall
design so that it is a feature, rather than a
distraction or eyesore."
The combination is a winner for Colab,
which provides outdoor activations
throughout New Zealand.
"It has been great to offer an all-weather
solution that looks premium," Lewis says.
