Reduce Costs & Increase Production
Maintaining comfortable, open manufacturing facilities helps boost production and efficiency. With adaptable manufacturing buildings, your operation will reduce costs and increase production for all processes. Implementing fabric manufacturing structures allows you to create weather-resistant, custom and versatile spaces to suit your evolving needs.
Calhoun’s fabric buildings offer an ideal setup for manufacturing processes. Manufacturing relies on efficient, stable structures to meet and exceed production goals. Large, open spaces and advanced designs allow you to create a cost-efficient setup that enhances productivity while reducing costs. Ensuring the safety of your personnel and equipment is simple with our durable fabric structures. Quickly expand your configuration without sacrificing insulation and strength by using Calhoun fabric solutions.
Manufacturing requires space, durability, and flexibility. Calhoun structures provide clear span interiors that support production flow and equipment movement.
Why Calhoun
Wide-span interiors eliminate columns, allowing for optimized equipment layout, streamlined workflows, and uninterrupted production lines.
Open spans and large openings accommodate oversized machinery, material handling systems, and continuous movement of goods.
Translucent fabric reduces reliance on artificial lighting across large floor areas, lowering operating costs over time.
Hot dip galvanized steel and durable fabric covers provide long-term performance with minimal maintenance, helping avoid costly downtime.
Calhoun's proprietary 3D Finitite Element Analysis (FEA) ensure the steel frame and fabric work together as a system to ensure long-term performance of your structure.
Compared to traditional building materials, Calhoun's fabric structures boast a lower cost per square foot, lower overall maintenance, and long-term operational savings.
With many profile designs to choose from we custom-engineer your structure to accommodate bulk materials, overhead equipment, conveyors, catwalks, equipment storage, and shipping and receiving equipment.
While engineered for permancen, our fabric stuctures have the ability to be taken down and relocated thanks to is modular design and fabric installation method.
Tell us about your project goals, building requirements, site location, and intended use. Whether you need warehousing, storage, manufacturing space, or equipment protection, our team will help identify the right building solution for your operation and budget.
Once we understand your needs, we review key project details including building dimensions, access requirements, fabric options, doors, ventilation, insulation, and site conditions. We also evaluate local wind, snow, and environmental loads to ensure the structure is designed specifically for your location.
After project approval, our engineering team performs a comprehensive site-specific review using advanced 3D Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Once engineering is complete, the steel framework is fabricated, hot-dip galvanized, and prepared for shipment alongside the fabric building system.
Calhoun offers installation services through experienced crews or can support your preferred contractor. Following installation, our team remains available for inspections, maintenance, repairs, fabric recovering, and relocation services to help maximize the lifespan of your investment.
