Creative Custom Inflatables – a Giant Wall and an Ice Mountain!
September was a busy month here at ABC Inflatables. Busy and BIG, with two huge custom inflatables for different clients. Both inflatables were incredibly imaginative and, because of their size, both demanded a lot of workshop space to build them. It was an enjoyable challenge for us to use some ABC creative magic to bring […]
Wine and Wheels at the Lord Mayor’s Show 2016
ABC was delighted to be involved once again in the Lord Mayor’s Show. This annual London spectacular is world-famous and this year the show took place on November 12th. In 1215, King John issued a Royal Charter that allowed the City of London to elect its own Mayor. Since then, the newly elected Mayor has left […]
Pink Floyd Pig Flies Again
We got a call to ask if our giant inflatable Pink Floyd Pig could fly again. Of course, we said yes! We had made him to recreate the image designed for Pink Floyd’s album cover Animals. In 2011, the record company remastered the Animals album and several other Pink Floyd classics. And at that time we flew the Pig over Battersea Power […]
Custom Inflatable Bike in the Netherlands
We were thrilled when a client in the Netherlands contacted us earlier this year with a special request. They had seen pictures on our website of the giant Tour de France inflatable bike we created for Leeds City Council last year to promote the Tour de France when it came to Yorkshire. They immediately recognised that […]
Inflatable Art for Nicholas Byrne
These pieces of inflatable art are updated designs by the artist Nicholas Byrne. We originally made a number of inflatables for him to feature at The Cultural Olympics in London 2012. So successful were they – and universally admired – that we subsequently made another giant inflatable ‘Betty Boo’ artpiece that went to the Glasgow […]
Giant Inflatable Guardsman
This giant cold air-filled giant inflatable guardsman was so big we couldn’t even stand him up in our workshop! He is over 8m tall and was made with a big plinth attached for him to stand on the client’s roof of their storage building on the North Circular Road in London. He is cold air-filled with a […]
Inflatable Hard Hat for Institute of Quarrying
Sometimes, what seems a relatively straight forward project can actually have underlying complications! The Institute of Quarrying asked us to create a giant helium filled inflatable hard hat to use at their big outdoor show, held at the Hillhead Quarry near Buxton. So far, so good. The custom inflatable itself was expertly executed by our […]
Giant inflatable Bike for the Tour de France 2014
We are often asked to make inflatables for major sporting events and we understand the impact they can have on large crowds of sports fans and spectators. When we were asked to create something for the Tour de France 2014, we set about designing and creating an inflatable that captured the spirit of the prestigious […]
Sport Relief Giant Tennis Balls
We were delighted to be asked to help David Lloyd Leisure with their fundraising efforts as the Official Fitness Partner for Sport Relief 2014. They had a fun idea to create some giant tennis balls which would tour the UK, inviting the public to help roll the ball over a mile across each major city and […]
