PanHorizon is a manufacturer of rapidly deployable pneumatic-frame hangars (warehouses and shelters) in Central Africa.
These are modern mobile structures whose framework is formed by excess air pressure inside special hollow arches...
The outer shell is made of a high-strength PVC tent resistant to UV radiation, moisture, and mechanical damage.
Unlike traditional metal or solid buildings, pneumatic hangars do not require a complex foundation—a level, prepared site is sufficient. This allows for installation in just 1–7 days, compared to the months required with traditional construction.
The structure is completely collapsible and transportable: when folded, the hangar fits into standard shipping containers, allowing for easy delivery anywhere in Central Africa. A large span without internal supports (up to 40 meters) provides completely open interior space, convenient for storing large equipment, organizing production, or warehousing operations.
Pneumatic hangars are ideal for both cold and hot climates: they can withstand heavy rain, high temperatures, wind, and humidity. With proper load calculations, the structure will last over 25 years and can be used as a temporary or permanent structure. PanHorizonAfrica offers a full service, from design and manufacturing to delivery and professional installation anywhere.

Application
Where are air frame hangars used?
- Warehouses in the portThey work well as temporary and permanent warehouses in port areas. They provide reliable protection for cargo from rain, sun, and wind, and can be installed in just a few days, which is important for seasonal shipments.
- Agricultural storage facilitiesThey are a convenient and cost-effective solution for storing grain crops, sunflowers, corn, wheat, barley, and other agricultural commodities. Thanks to their good ventilation and quick installation, they can be quickly deployed near fields or at logistics hubs.
- Facilities for aircraft maintenanceThey are widely used as mobile and stationary hangars for the storage, repair, and maintenance of aircraft and helicopters. Their large spans and lack of internal supports allow for convenient storage of aircraft.
- Structures for mining equipmentWidely used for storage and maintenance of mining equipment, excavators, drilling equipment and quarry equipment. They allow you to quickly organize protected warehouses and repair areas directly at the fields.
- Production facilitiesThey allow for the rapid deployment of workshops, assembly lines, or product processing facilities without lengthy capital construction and large investments, while meeting all customer requirements.
- Sports stadiumsThese hangars are used to build indoor sports arenas, training halls, and stadiums with stands. They allow for the rapid creation of a protected space for competitions and training sessions at any time of year.
- Repair area for quarry equipmentThe large clear span allows for the access of large equipment, and rapid installation allows for prompt maintenance in remote areas.
- Mobile shelters for military equipmentA reliable solution for creating mobile shelters for military vehicles, repair bases, and temporary weapons depots. Thanks to their quick assembly and reusability, they are widely used in military and peacekeeping operations worldwide.
Advantages of airframe hangars
- Quick installation: 2–7 daysGet your warehouse or production site up and running in record time—complete installation in just 2–7 days. You'll be up and running significantly faster than with traditional construction.
- No foundation: a level surface is sufficientSignificant time and money savings—no expensive foundation required. A level surface is sufficient, dramatically reducing the overall project cost.
- Mobility: easy to disassemble and transportYour investment is always with you—the hangar can be quickly dismantled and moved to a new location whenever your business needs it.
- Low cost: cheaper than permanent buildingsGet a fully-fledged modern space at a price several times lower than that of capital buildings, while maintaining high quality and functionality.
- Large span: no internal supportsMaximum usable space—completely open, column-free space, ideal for large equipment, warehouse storage, and convenient work organization.
- Climate resistance: suitable for any regionReliable protection in African conditions—it withstands heavy rain, wind, scorching sun, and high humidity. Your goods and equipment are always protected.
- Versatility: the length of the structure can be increased in the futureGrow without limits - you can easily expand the hangar at any time as your business expands.
Frequently Asked Questions
about air-frame hangars
What are airframe hangars?
These are mobile structures whose framework is supported by positive air pressure inside special arches. They are made of high-strength PVC tarpaulin and can be quickly assembled and disassembled on any surface.

How long does it take to assemble a hangar?
Assembly time ranges from 2 to 10 days, depending on the size. A small hangar (200–500 m²) can be erected in 1–3 days.
The work is performed by a small team, without a permanent foundation or the use of specialized equipment.

Does a pneumoframe hangar require a foundation?
No, a solid foundation is not required. A level surface (asphalt, concrete slab, or compacted soil) is sufficient. This significantly reduces the cost and timeframe of the project compared to traditional hangars.

Is constant air inflation required in the building?
No. Pneumatic frame structures (inflatable arches) do not require continuous compressor operation or permanent inflation. Thanks to special automatic valves, the pressure inside the arches is maintained automatically.

Features of PanHorizon Africa air hangars:
Pneumatic hangars don't have rigid standard dimensions—we manufacture them to suit any purpose and operating conditions. Each 2,000-square-meter structure is housed in a single 40-foot shipping container.
High-strength, fire-resistant PVC membranes were used in production, which withstand intense solar radiation, high humidity, and the salty air of coastal port areas.

Key design advantages:
- Operational flexibility – different heights and volumes can be combined in a single structure.
- Complete mobility – the hangar can be easily disassembled and transported to a new location without loss of materials.
- No foundation required – mechanisms are attached mechanically or with ballast to existing asphalt or concrete slabs.
- Sectional design – the hangar can be extended or shortened at any time, requiring only a few people and a mobile scaffold.
- Versatility – it can even be stored on the water to protect marine vessels and provide conditions for their 24/7 maintenance.
Our company successfully implements projects in Central African countries. We offer solutions for the supply and installation of pneumatic hangars adapted to harsh climates, operating conditions, and customer requirements.
We provide fast delivery and professional installation of hangars throughout Central Africa, including Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi and Rwanda.
We offer a flexible installation supervision plan. If you already have your own installation team, you won't have to pay extra for a full turnkey installation. This saves you up to 60% of the installation cost and maintains the full warranty.
We also actively collaborate with agents and sales representatives throughout Africa on mutually beneficial terms: you receive a percentage of each closed deal and a reward for successful project support.
In addition to manufacturing and professional assembly, PanHorizon
sells hangars on an installment plan and rents them out.
This is a convenient option for companies that need temporary or seasonal storage infrastructure without major capital investments.
Our social mission is to support small businesses and farmers in Central Africa. Renting air-frame hangars allows entrepreneurs to quickly obtain the space they need without the lengthy approval process for major construction projects. Furthermore, such projects are often eligible for grant support from governments and international organizations.
You can rent a ready-made hangar for any period—from a few months to several years. We handle delivery, installation, maintenance, and dismantling after the lease ends.
This gives you a flexible and cost-effective solution: you use a modern hangar when you really need it, without having to commit to a purchase.
