Inflatables
built 646 days ago
Inflatables are large portable structures that are connected to a high-power fan. When the fan is turned on, the structure inflates to it's full size. Inflatables are ... know as bounce houses, moon walks or space walks. They come in many shapes and styles such as castles, water slides, and obstacle courses.

Inflatables are rented for functions, school and church festivals and village fetes. Although they are aimed at children, adult castles can be hired in the UK. Because of liability concerns moonwalks are rarely rented to adults in the US. They are often used to wrestle, bounce or rumble. Aheatrical group has started performing Shakespearian tragedies on bouncy castles at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe (Hamlet in 2006, Macbeth in 2007).

As for company subsidiaries, Aerostar's advertising inflatables and special apparel businesses were stronger than anticipated. Sales were $3.5 million, equivalent to the year-ago's first quarter while ongoing operating income of $209,000 compared to the prior year's near breakeven result. The impact of a new operating structure, including the closure of two sewing plants, helped stabilize profits on a lower sales base, management said. The company reaffirmed that its backlog for sewn products remains significantly lower than one year ago.

A growing use for inflatables is for white water rafting and kayaking, as well as in river, lake and ocean touring. Professional-level rafts and kayaks have existed for many years; since the late 1990s, more affordable inflatable rafts, kayaks (including sea kayaks) and canoes have been developed by European and North American companies. Typically these inflatable boats contain no rigid frame members, so they can be deflated, folded and stored in compact bags.
