Hybrid Series Fabric Buildings
The strength of welded-plate frames with advantages of Natural Light fabric
When you decide to build, consider getting the best of both worlds. Hybrid Buildings offer the strength of welded-plate rigid frames, are engineered to meet your necessary loads, and are custom designed to meet your needs. Hybrid Buildings also offer the lighting and ventilation benefits of a Natural Light polyethylene fabric roof. The result is a stronger, brighter and more cost-effective solution.
