Every inflatable project at Landmark Creations begins with selecting the right materials, chosen to perform reliably and look great for your specific shape, lighting system, and intended use. This guide provides a closer look at the high-performance fabrics we work with and explains why they matter.
Flame Retardant Materials: Built for Safety
All fabrics we use are flame-retardant (FR) and meet or exceed the safety standards required for:
- Indoor venues like schools and gyms
- Stage and theatrical installations
- Trade shows and exhibitions
We maintain FR certificates for every roll of fabric used in your project. We can provide:
- Digital or printed FR certificates
- A Manufacturer’s Statement of Materials Used
- Unprinted fabric swatches for fire marshal burn testing
Note: If your project requires additional painting or treatment, it’s important to discuss it with us first. Certain coatings may affect flame resistance.
Fabric Finishes & Print Options
| Finish Type | Appearance | Common Uses |

| Satin | Smooth with subtle sheen | Soft lighting, sculptural looks |
| Glossy | Bright, shiny finish | High-impact visuals |
| Metallic | Foil-like shine | Accents, stylized elements |
| Clear | Transparent or tinted | Lighting effects, windows, and support concealment |
Durability, Handling & Maintenance
| Factor | What We Consider |
| Weight | Impacts ease of transport and inflation |
| Packability | Some materials wrinkle or crease more easily |
| Cleanability | Most fabrics can be wiped clean; some are washable |
| Repairability | Most damage can be patched, but visibility varies by material |
