Although they look
the same in shape and every aspect, not all tents are made equally. Before you
buy a custom canopy tent, it’s always better to consider a few
features and materials that present in your tent. In this guide, we want to
discuss what makes an excellent tent to buy or invest in. But first, we want to
know your reason.
Generally, there
are two main reasons why people are using 10x10
custom tent:
promotional or recreational. It’s essential to keep your business stays
relevant in a fierce and competitive market. Promotional tents are great to buy
for business owners and entrepreneurs who want to advertise their products or
services during a trade show, corporate events, fairs, or festivals.
To catch the
attention, sometimes they use interactive objects such as banners, flags, and
implemented designs to show that they’re different from others. This way, they
can get the attention of so many curious customers. That’s why experts in
marketing said that a custom 10x10 tent is one of the best promotional
techniques to apply.
The second reason
to have a custom canopy tent is recreational—a tent for this purpose is usually
used at the beaches, a party, or camping.
Before actually
buying customized tents, you need to distinguish between various materials, components, and
materials that are available in the market.
The Frame
The standard type
of frame materials used for a custom canopy tent is whether aluminum or steel. There are plenty
of reasons why these are the best in the market. First, they are cheap, and
second, they’re pretty strong. As the cherry on the pie, they pretty light as
well, so the build-up process of the tent is relatively easy.
The Shape
When looking at
the catalog, you may notice some tents have different shapes of legs. Sometimes
they’re square or hexagonal. So what’s the best form to pick? Hexagonal-shaped
legs are more robust and resistant to strong impact and dents. Diameter and
thickness are the keys here.
The thicker it is,
the stronger the frame will be. But the trade-off is the weight, which can be
troublesome for transporting.
Truss
Bars, Connectors, and Footplates
The materials
mentioned above are responsible for the overall durability and stability of the
tent. Just like the leg tubes, the thicker it is, the stronger it gets.
Double-sided connectors which function to connect truss bars are considered the
best in the market. These components will make your 10x10 canopy tent stronger against breaking, twisting, and
collapsing.
Locking
systems
The locking
mechanism will lock the framework, connect the components during the setup
process and takedown steps. There are three locking systems available: push the
trigger, pull-pin, and button press. Usually, most commercial grade canopies
are equipped with the pull-pin system due to the easiness of releasing the
locking system.
Fabric
Material
One of the vital
components of a custom canopy is the fabric material. This widely misunderstood
material comes in two main types: polyester and vinyl. The first one is the
most common fabric material and is widely used for its resistance against UV,
rain, and fire. Above all, it’s also more durable and an ideal choice to print
logos and designs. It is the thickest material to be used that is light and
long-lasting. At Signleader Display, we use high-quality 600 polyesters to print
high-quality inks.
You can have
yourself a nice 10x10 event tent for your best business promotion by using
quality materials.
