In recent years, the global tent market has experienced explosive growth. It is predicted that the global tent market size will exceed 13.5 billion US dollars by 2025, and the Chinese market will also exceed 10 billion yuan. This growth is mainly driven by an increasing number of large-scale sports events, exhibitions, and music festivals.
With the continuous expansion of the event scale, traditional tent materials are facing multiple challenges such as resistance to extreme weather, rapid disassembly and assembly, and environmental sustainability. Hubei Jinlong New Materials Co., Ltd. is providing new solutions for this industry with its technological accumulation and innovation advantages.

1、 The four core challenges brought by mega events

1. Balance between scale and security

Modern international events require temporary spaces covering tens of thousands of square meters, such as the 124000 square meter PTFE membrane roof used at the Vietnam National Convention and Exhibition Center. The structure of such a large-span tent must be able to withstand wind speeds of up to 80km/h, which places extremely high demands on the tensile strength and durability of the materials.

2. Quick construction and dismantling requirements

Large scale events usually have strict schedules, such as Huaye Tent being able to complete the construction of a 2000 square meter tent within one day. This requires tent materials not only to be lightweight and easy to operate, but also to be perfectly matched with supporting structures to achieve rapid deployment.

3. Environmental and sustainability pressures

With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the demand for recyclable materials in the market has sharply increased. It is expected that by 2025, the market penetration rate of recyclable PVC tarpaulin will reach 65%, and by 2030, it will exceed 90%. Tent materials must have environmental characteristics to reduce their impact on the environment.

4. Multi functional integration and intelligent adaptation

Modern activities require tents to be not just simple shelters, but also integrated with ventilation, lighting, temperature control, and even intelligent monitoring systems. Materials need to work in conjunction with other high-tech components to provide a comfortable and safe environment.

1. Wide width production technology to eliminate hidden seam hazards

The 6-meter wide non splicing tarpaulin production line developed by Hubei Jinlong Group with an investment of 120 million yuan has completely solved the problems of water leakage and non durability at the joints of traditional tarpaulins. This global widest industrial fabric production technology enables seamless coverage of large tents, greatly improving waterproof performance and overall stability.

2. Diversified material system to meet the needs of different scenarios

Jinlong Film Materials has developed over a thousand products in five categories, including advertising materials, canopy materials, tent materials, airtight materials, and emergency rescue materials. For different application scenarios:

High strength application: Using high-performance coating materials such as PVDF and PTFE, the tensile strength is much higher than that of steel, and it has super strong creep resistance

Environmental Protection Needs: Developing Recyclable PVC Materials to Reduce Environmental Impact

Special function: Provides materials with characteristics such as fire resistance, flame retardancy, UV resistance, antibacterial and mildew resistance, acid and alkali resistance, and corrosion resistance

3. Multi functional design to cope with extreme weather conditions

Jinlong membrane material is processed through special techniques to provide various protective functions for the product

Fireproof and flame retardant: meets the German DIN41022 B1/M2 standard, effectively reducing the risk of fire

UV resistance: protects personnel and items inside the canopy from UV damage

Waterproof and weather resistant: using high-performance coating technology to ensure impermeability in heavy rain environments

Thermal insulation: Special thermal insulation coating can reduce the temperature inside the canopy and improve comfort

4. Intelligent and customized services

Jinlong Film Material provides highly customized services, customizing tent materials in various colors, specifications, thicknesses, and functions according to customer requirements. The white side curtain can also be digitally printed or screen printed to help businesses create mobile advertising platforms.

3、 Application examples of Jinlong membrane materials in large-scale events

1. International sports event guarantee

In large-scale events in Shanghai, high-quality tents are equipped with high-strength 6082-T6 aluminum alloy frames and PVC tarpaulins, which can withstand strong winds of 8-12 levels and provide a safe and stable environment for the event. Similar solutions are also applicable to outdoor activities such as Loong Boat Race and Equestrian Race.

2. Large scale exhibitions and convention centers

The Vietnam National Convention and Exhibition Center uses PTFE membrane materials produced in China, with a total unfolded area of approximately 124000 square meters and a maximum membrane single piece of 680 square meters. This permanent building membrane material uses a unique impregnation coating and leveling drying technology to coat glass fiber yarn with tetrafluoroethylene resin, forming high-performance composite materials.

3. Cultural festivals and music activities

In traditional festivals such as the Loong Boat Festival, the membrane structure tent is used for facilities such as the Loong Boat race area and sunshade, which can reduce the body feeling temperature by 8 ℃ in the hot sun. The flexibility and beauty of the tent enable it to integrate cultural elements, such as the hollow texture into the Dragon Boat Festival pattern, and project the silhouette of wormwood and Loong Boat under the light and shadow.

4. Emergency and Temporary Placement

As a permitted supplier of emergency rescue supplies such as national emergency rescue tents, military fasteners, and military mobile command tents, Jinlong Membrane Materials' products have shown excellent performance in emergency situations, enabling rapid deployment and providing safe and reliable temporary spaces.

4、 Future Development Trends and Technological Prospects

1. Material Innovation and Sustainable Development

The tent industry is developing towards a more environmentally friendly direction. The commercial production technology of bio based materials (such as sugarcane based tent fabrics) is becoming increasingly mature, which can reduce carbon emissions by 40%. Jinlong Membrane Materials is also actively developing environmentally friendly materials to meet the market's demand for sustainable products.

2. Intelligent integration

Future tents will integrate more intelligent functions, such as environmental control (temperature, humidity, air quality), safety monitoring (smoke, gas leakage), and remote control systems. It is expected that by 2025, the market share of smart tents will reach 15%, and by 2030, it will exceed 30%.

3. Modularization and rapid deployment

Modular design enables quick assembly and disassembly of tent units, increasing construction efficiency by over 50%. The popularization of modular bathroom, kitchen and other supporting facilities will further expand the application scenarios of tents.

4. Energy self-sufficiency

Through technologies such as photovoltaic integrated roofs and energy storage systems, tents are expected to achieve energy self-sufficiency. This not only reduces operating costs, but also minimizes the impact on the environment.
