This move allowed the company to focus on growth and expansion, and it wasn’t long before Tensoshade™ began to establish itself as a major player in the fabric architecture industry.
Over the years, Tensoshade™ has built a network of strategic partnerships and alliances that have enabled the company to design and install thousands of tensile membrane structures across the USA, Mexico, and Central America. Today, Tensoshade™ is known for its innovative designs, high-quality materials, and commitment to customer satisfaction.
