The Trade Group announces its partnership with AirClad as the US distributor for portable, architectural structures perfect for live events, pop-up shops, mobile hotels and more.
The Trade Group in Carrollton, Texas, recently partnered with architectural structures innovator AirClad to distribute its contemporary, semi-permanent pop-up systems in the U.S.
Along with the XPO structures (large entertainment and exposition buildings from 20’x16’x10’ up to 33’x65’x20’ standard), one of the flagship products is the Snoozy, an 8’x8’ sleeping pod that accommodates up to four people.
Clients have been asking The Trade Group for high-end, temporary structures that are suitable for outdoors, setup in a short period of time and provide lighting, solid flooring, climate control, electrical hookups, charging stations and more. AirClad’s semi-permanent, architectural structures like the OiO, YumYum and Snoozy meet these needs, plus they are easy to customize.
Six Reasons to Take the Snoozy to Your Next Live Event
No. 1: Ingenious award winning design
As with all of the structures in the AirClad line, the Snoozy is constructed of sturdy, aluminum supports and has been carefully engineered for speed, stability and safety. A double layer of vinyl covers the aluminum supports and an internal AirCell system is used to inflate the walls. This effect looks impressive, while blocking out noise and the elements.
Hard, laminate panels enclose the front and back sides of the units. The Snoozy also features a handy sliding door with lock for added security.
AirClad products were designed to be used in a variety of environments and don’t require a special foundation. The structures setup on the ground with foot supports underneath for stability and leveling, as well as an air barrier to avoid ground moisture. Flooring panels lock in place to help ensure the structure stands solid.
All of these smart design features helped earn AirClad prestigious awards, including the European Product Design Award, Red Dot Award for Product Design and Society of British and International Design Intelligent Design Award.
No. 2: Cool features and options
The Snoozy sleeping pods come standard with USB ports, LED lighting, Wi-Fi, shelving and two single beds. Depending on the environment and application, Snoozys can also be equipped with:
- Bunk beds that sleep four OR one double-sized bed.
- Climate control (A/C and heat).
- Electrical hookups.
- Choice of flooring (laminate, carpet or custom printed flooring).
- Additional soundproofing.
- Locking safe to store valuables.
- Guest amenities. (They will even stock the Snoozy with special treats for VIPs.)
No. 3: Branding opportunities galore
While the Snoozy features a clean, contemporary design, that look is just a starting point. All four sides – not to mention the top – can be customized with brand messaging and colors. The Trade Group can even customize flooring to further complement the space.
In addition, TTG’s design team can recommend graphics, signage, lighting and accessories that give the space the same look and feel of a company’s traditional branded spaces and other face-to-face experiences.
No. 4: Lightening fast setup, compact storage and full-service event management from TTG
Three-person teams can typically set up a Snoozy in 15 minutes. Snoozys also pack down flat and can be stacked eight high and four deep. That means you can easily fit 32 Snoozys in one truckload.
No. 5: Ideal for Creating a High-end, Multi-unit Mobile Motel for VIP Guests
What VIP wouldn’t love their own comfortable, private space to sneak away from the crowds during a multi-day event? Multiple Snoozys can be set up side-by-side in a secure, private space, ultimately creating a mobile motel for face-to-face events such as
- Music and food festivals.
- Gaming competitions.
- Product experiences.
- Brand activations.
- Glamping events and more.
No. 6: Complements other AirClad models perfectly
Along with the Snoozy and XPO, the AirClad product line also features 8’x8’ mobile offices – the OIO (office in office) model – and 8’x8’ structures with a window and awning for selling food and merchandise – the Yum Yum.
The same clean, streamlined style and customization options are available in all models. Just imagine, you could create an entire, temporary village, with Snoozys, XPOs, OIOs and Yum Yums all customized to your specifications. Now that could be an experience VIP guests will never forget.
