There’s a good reason why you can’t find price information for custom inflatables here on our website. Unlike the cheap uninspiring inflatables available on Amazon or eBay, custom inflatables from MVP Visuals are just that—custom.
Most custom inflatables have a price between $1,000–$20,000, with the cost depending on several factors such as:
- The size of the inflatable
- The shape and complexity of the project
- The amount of artwork and customization needed
- Quantity and quality of the materials used
If you want us to give you a more helpful and accurate quote, we need to hear from you and understand your needs. Let’s explore the reasoning behind the pricing of custom inflatables.
What Is a Custom Inflatable?
A custom inflatable is made to order according to the customer’s specific needs. Unlike off-the-rack models, custom inflatables reflect your branding and advertising both in design and printing.
In one of our most successful projects for Pilots and Places, we built inflatables that looked like the Eiffel Tower, London’s Big Ben, and the Taj Mahal. This goes to show the limitless creative power of custom inflatables.
Think of custom inflatables as 3D banners. There’s virtually no limit to what you can turn into a custom design. The inflatable cans below are another example of how you can use these inflatables in marketing and advertising during trade shows and events.
Custom Inflatables in the Shape of Cans
Custom inflatables aren’t custom in shape only. To capture the branding and spirit of your organization, every color and logo has to be a perfect match.
That’s why the team here at MVP Visuals builds every custom inflatable from scratch. From the initial design to the 3D rendering and production of the actual inflatable, we customize every step of this exciting process to bring you the best results.
Ben Camerota, the owner of MVP Visuals, explains why you should consider using custom inflatables for your event in the video below.
The goal of custom models is to give you maximum returns on your investment. Let’s compare the prices of some of our most common inflatables to find one that suits your upcoming event.
Prices of Different Types of Custom Inflatables
#1: Inflatable Arches
Inflatable arches are usually simple in design, making them a cost-effective solution for outdoor events and marketing. They range in price from $900 to over $5,000, depending on their size and shape.
The most common shapes available include circles, square arches, angled arches, and custom arches. The angled arch inflatable shown below is one of our most popular designs.
Angled Inflatable Arch Designed for Coors Light
Thanks to their simple design, you can get your inflatable arch designed, built, and shipped in as little as 10 days. They come in sizes ranging from 15–50 ft wide and a variety of materials such as 600D or 420D Polyester. Customizing inflatable arches is easy with limitless color and design options.
#2: Sports Inflatables: Football Tunnels, Helmets, and Mascots
Nothing says “lionheart” better than a giant inflatable football tunnel, team mascot, or helmet. Considering how often you use sports inflatables, flawless quality and durability are imperative.
We’ve worked with some of the nation’s most illustrious college football teams to create unforgettable football tunnels and mascots. You can even mix up your brand with seasonal inflatables for holidays like Christmas, as shown below with a Santa mascot for the University of Alabama:
You can expect to spend upwards of $3,000-$5,000 for a large run-through helmet or mascot like this one. Again, the complexity of the design materials you choose will influence the price.
#3: Inflatable Product Replicas
Stretching the imagination in advertising is how brands get ahead. An inflatable product replica should be over-the-top and edgy to make it memorable, and an inflatable product replica does just that.
This inflatable shoe replica is one you’re not likely to overlook, even in a large event.
You can have inflatable product replicas in small and oversized options. They can also be sealed or require constant pumping of air. For custom replicas modeled after your product, logo, and branding, like this inflatable shoe, expect to pay from $900 to $3,000 or more per inflatable.
#4: Inflatable Games, Bouncing Castles, and Obstacle Courses
If you give customers a way to interact with your brand, chances are they’ll never forget the experience. Enter inflatable games, obstacle courses, and bouncing castles.
Whether you want a design for children or adults, inflatable gaming structures are some of the largest and most complex available. Imagine showing up at trade festivals with this obstacle course.
Custom Inflatable Obstacle Course
Being among the largest and most complex structures in our selection, inflatable bouncing castles and obstacle courses can cost anywhere from $5,000 to over $25,000.
Comparing the Prices and Benefits of Custom Inflatables
Small details like bad stitching can bring down an inflatable structure in minutes. At the same time, large details such as structural support and choice of material also make a huge difference.
There’s a reason why all the big brands choose to work with custom inflatable producers like MVP Visuals instead of buying off-the-shelf inflatables.
