Here at UK Tents we recognise the support we can provide for businesses to improve capacity instantly, so for this blog we are talking a bit about this. From a commercial and hospitality point of view, you can never have enough welcoming space for your customers, your events, or your teams.

This has become evident during the difficult times we have all experienced over the last year and a half.

Being able to utilise outdoor areas and provide comfort and weather protection has been critical to many of our customers. Providing protection from the elements, whilst maintaining covid compliant ventilation have seen our Marquees take on a myriad of new applications in a wide variety of settings. From pub beer gardens to hotel lawns, from golf clubs to film sets, from covid testing areas to hospitality.

The ability to open marquees at each end have ensured they pass mustard and their durability and crisp white finish with large, bright airy windows in a range of styles create the perfect “indoor feel” outdoors.

Our year-round marquees come in a range of sizes, to fit every need and available space from the garden party to large gatherings and receptions. They can optionally be lined with stylish drapery adding that luxurious feel for your occupants and guests.

The framework is sturdy galvanised steel, offering piece of mind from the elements. They are anchored by strong drop bolts that can be used on a wide range of surfaces from lawns to hard standings. You can choose from a range of materials, all weatherproof, easy to clean and compact to store.

• PE (Polyurethane) is lightweight, economic, and flexible. Our PE marquees are made from approx. 180g/m² PE material, UV resistant and 100% waterproof.
• Our economy PVC is made from500g/m² PVC Tarpaulin Material, UV resistant and 100% waterproof. Its ideal for regular short-term use.
• Our Premium PVC tents are strong, robust and is fire resistant as standard. Our premium PVC is made of approx. 500g/m² PVC Tarpaulin Material, UV resistant, fire resistant and 100% waterproof. Its ideal for longer term installations.

Our tents are durable all-weather construction – the Premium range are even sturdier thanks to the ground bars provided as standard.

For that extra piece of mind, especially if the marquee is to remain erected during the inclement months on a soft surface, you may wish to consider investing in the optional Storm Protection Kit.

This simple to install kit provides extra security during bad weather and the reinforced tension straps are ratcheted to ensure stability.

We are proud to guarantee the availability of spares for ten years from your date of purchase because accidents can happen!
