How are Custom Inflatable Manufactured?
Custom inflatables are made by following a multi-step process that involves several key stages. Some things to keep in mind are that we work hand-in-hand with our clients to be able to manufacture and deliver an inflatable that is as close as possible to our client's specifications.
Concept and Design: The first step in creating a custom inflatable is to come up with a concept or idea for what the inflatable should look like. This could be anything from a simple logo or branding message to a complex, multi-piece structure. Once the concept is established, the design team will create a digital rendering of the inflatable using 3D modeling software.
Printing: If the inflatable includes any graphics or branding, the design will need to be printed onto the material. This is typically done using a digital printing process that can produce high-quality, full-color designs. Depending on the complexity of the design, it may be printed in multiple pieces and then sewn together.
Cutting and Sewing: The next step is to cut and sew the pieces of the inflatable together. This process is typically done using automated cutting and sewn by hand precisely.
Assembly and Testing: Once all of the pieces of the inflatable have been cut, sewn, and printed, the next step is to assemble them into the final product. This typically involves inserting the air blower, attaching any accessories or support structures, and inflating the unit to check for any leaks or structural issues.
Shipping and Installation: Finally, the completed inflatable is packaged and shipped to the customer. Depending on the size and complexity of the inflatable, it may need to be installed by a professional team, although most of our inflatables can be secured by a few people. This typically involves securing the inflatable to the ground or other structures, and making sure that it is properly inflated and functioning correctly.
How Much is a Custom Inflatable?
When it comes to pricing a custom inflatable, there are several factors that can influence the cost. As a manufacturer, we take into consideration several key factors before providing our clients with a quote. Here are three points that go into pricing a custom inflatable:
Size: The size of the inflatable is a major factor in determining the cost. Generally, larger inflatables require more material and take longer to manufacture, making them more expensive.
Complexity of Design: The complexity of the design can also affect the cost of a custom inflatable. Intricate designs with multiple colors, shapes, or custom features can require more time and skill to create, which can increase the overall cost. On the other hand, simpler designs with fewer colors and shapes may be less expensive to produce. However, even simple designs can still be highly effective and eye-catching, especially when combined with creative branding or messaging. At Creative Inflatables, our in-house design team works closely with clients to create custom inflatables that meet their specific needs and budget, while still maintaining a high level of quality and visual impact.
Quantity: The quantity of inflatables ordered can also impact the cost per unit. Generally, larger orders will result in lower per-unit costs, as the manufacturing and setup costs can be spread out over a larger number of inflatables. Discounts may also be available for repeat clients or for orders of a certain size.
At Creative Inflatables, we work closely with our clients to ensure that we provide them with a quote that accurately reflects their specific needs and budget. By considering these factors and others, we are able to provide our clients with high-quality inflatables.
