Constant-pressure arches
A constant-pressure arch is a gas-tight advertising arch that is inflated once and stands for several days without power – on a forest trail, a beach and anywhere there is no socket.

How to choose the right model?
How long does a constant-pressure arch hold air?
Once inflated, the arch keeps its shape for several days; after big temperature swings (a cold night after a hot day) top it up for a minute in the morning. The electric pump is included and runs from a 230 V socket, a generator or a car inverter.
Straight or bevelled?
A straight arch has a horizontal beam across the full width, so it takes the longest lettering; the bevelled version has cut corners – two extra fields for sponsor logos and a more dynamic silhouette in finish-line photos. Both versions cost the same in the same size.
What is a constant-pressure arch and how does it differ from a fan-blown one?
A constant-pressure arch has two layers: a gas-tight TPU inner (approx. 340 g/m²) and an outer skin of PVC-coated polyester (300 g/m²) that carries the print. It is inflated once with the electric pump supplied, the valve is closed, and the arch stands for several days with no blower and no power. A fan-blown arch needs continuous power – in return it is cheaper and faster to set up.
When to choose a constant-pressure arch?
- on a running, cycling or off-road course where there is no power and a generator is a hassle,
- on a beach, promenade or in a park – the arch stands silently, with no cable to trip over,
- in rain and snow – there is no blower to protect from water,
- for multi-day displays, e.g. at fairs, rallies and festivals.
Sizes and price
Full-size constant-pressure arches have clear openings of 5x3, 6x4 and 8x4 m with 1.12 m legs, in a straight or bevelled version. Smaller and lighter constant-pressure arches are in the SLIM line, fan-blown ones under inflatable arches. The arches complete ARIO's gas-tight family: constant-pressure tents and constant-pressure pillars.
