Sustainable Screens by
DT Structures
Here we have the lovely Broyney
(a key member of our loft team) modelling DT
Structures’ latest fabric structure: sustainable and
cost-effective screens
for Holt Exhibitions.
To make these screens we
printed onto translucent Flag polyester producing a reverse image,
following
which a black stretch fabric was sewn onto the structure and then
zipped over
an aluminium frame.
When Broyney is not working
away on the sewing machines in the loft, she is an accomplished
photographer as
well as a dab hand at horse riding!
Prior to shipping our
structures are broken down into small manageable sizes making them much
easier
to handle, as shown in the above image of an aluminium framework with a
mild
steel base, manufactured by our Bristol based steelwork partner Creative
Metalwork.
Reassembly is no problem:
individual
sections of the framework easily slot together resulting in pleasingly
short
build times.
Once disassembled all elements of
the structure are
compactly packed down and ready to ship all over the world, in this
case
Germany. Each and every individual part of our designs is durable and
reusable.
DT Structures Stand for Hyder Wins the
Environment and Energy Award.
 This award was for the
most eco-friendly custom-built stand at
Sustainabilitylive! 2009, which took place in the Birmingham NEC.
Once again our all printed tensioned fabric structures showed
off their
unique and environmentally friendly style, standing out amongst the
competition.
The exhibition stand was designed and engineered to maximize
sustainability, minimizing negative environmental impact .What better
way to achieve this aim than by using tensioned fabric structures?! The thematic roof sails and freestanding snail curve of the central
structure reflect the ecological thinking which informs all of our
designs. Nothing you see here will end up in a land-fill!
With investment in DT
Structures sales will grow and grow! Come and see more examples on our
