R&D&I Projects

At Tecnodimension, innovation and design are fundamental pillars of our business strategy. We boast an R&D&I department we are deeply proud of, dedicated to developing innovative projects for advertising inflatables, custom textile architecture solutions, and inflatable art. Our team works constantly to find new ways to integrate design, technology, and sustainability into fields such as industry, inflatable tent engineering, textile architecture, and air-supported structures.

This combination of innovation and design has allowed us to collaborate with leading European research organizations, bringing to life large-scale projects that transform concepts into real, certified, and market-ready solutions. Our commitment is to offer architects, engineers, municipal technicians, and procurement managers solutions that comply with the most demanding regulations while optimizing costs, deadlines, and environmental impact.

European Research Projects in Inflatable Structures

Innovation and design in inflatable structures require strategic collaborations with research institutions and European public funding. Tecnodimension has actively participated in R&D&I programs co-funded by the European Union, demonstrating our capacity to develop cutting-edge solutions that address real-world challenges in sectors such as transport, renewable energy, and sustainable construction.

Refresh

Tecnodimension has been part of Refresh XXL, a project funded by the European community where we worked to create a maritime transport system for fresh water. This was achieved by developing a flexible and cost-effective solution based on the use of modular flexible plastic containers (water bags) towed by a tugboat. Our approach combines inflatable structure design with advanced engineering: we developed high-capacity modular flexible plastic containers, optimizing profitability and reducing the carbon footprint.

Impact: This solution demonstrates how innovation and design in textile architecture can solve global logistical challenges, opening new opportunities in sectors such as water supply for coastal regions or the distribution of specialized fluids.

Balith

The Balith project is an example of European multidisciplinary collaboration in which Tecnodimension participates as a technological partner. This project is formed by a multidisciplinary team of researchers, experts, large companies, and SMEs from different European countries working to develop, design, and manufacture renewable and organic electrolyte batteries using high-performance inflatable bladders.

Key Innovation: The use of inflatable structures as battery containers represents a disruptive breakthrough in renewable energy. Our R&D&I department has contributed to the design of membranes and structures that guarantee airtightness, durability, and safety under CE regulations, enabling the commercialization of lighter, more transportable, and scalable energy storage solutions.

Applications: From electric vehicles to distributed renewable energy installations, batteries with inflatable technology open new possibilities for industrial decarbonization.

FAQs on R&D&i projects

What is the difference between an R&D&I project and a standard Tecnodimension product?

An R&D&I project involves research, development, and innovation applied to completely new or significantly improved solutions. At Tecnodimension, our European projects (such as Refresh XXL and Balith) go beyond the standard catalogue: we create prototypes, validate emerging technologies, and collaborate with research organizations. Standard products are proven solutions; our R&D&I projects are the genesis of future solutions.

What regulations and certifications ensure the safety of your R&D&I solutions?

All our R&D&I developments comply with CE certifications, ISO standards for material safety (ISO 1419, ISO 6954 for textiles), and specific standards tailored to each application. Our R&D&I department works in close collaboration with European certification bodies to guarantee that every innovation is not only functional but also safe and commercially viable right from the first prototype.
