Since its establishment in 1956, Birdair has been committed to the technological development of custom tensile architecture in numerous market sectors.
Early radomes and rapid deployment command shelters led to commercial applications in bulk storage and removable sports facility covers. In 1957, the Buffalo, N.Y., home of company founder Walter Bird was pictured on the front cover of LIFE magazine. It featured an air-supported pool enclosure in winter, as a glimpse of life in the future.
Birdair continues that innovative spirit today, working as a specialty contractor with architects and owners in the construction of lightweight tensile architectural structures of all sizes and complexities. To date, the company has completed more than 1200 major installations in more than 30 countries, requiring over 30 million square feet of architectural fabric membrane.
These dynamic structures – created for sports, retail, commercial, transportation and other market sectors – have been erected in the most geographically diverse settings, from the Arctic Circle to Saudi Arabia; from St. Petersburg, Fla. to Paris, France; from Perth, Australia to Vancouver, British Columbia and beyond. Each job is unique, using the latest materials, and treated with the utmost attention to detail.
Birdair mission is to satisfy the client completely. Birdair's corporate office and manufacturing plant are ISO 9001:2008 certified. This certification ensures clients of Birdair's commitment to the highest standard of quality. By partnering early in the design-build process and utilizing the versatility of fabric membrane, steel and cable systems, no architectural vision is beyond reach.
