ASATI: Air Structures American Technologies Inc.

With the vision to be a pioneer in the Air Structure Industry, Air Structures American Technologies Inc. was founded in 1962. Since its conception, ASATI’s engineers and manufacturing personnel have pioneered the commercial use of air-supported structures for both industrial and recreational purposes. In 1963, ASATI’s CEO, Donato Fraioli, designed and erected the first air-supported structure over a tennis court, spawning the recognition of the versatility of air-supported structures for the entire sporting and recreational industry. By creating the right angle cornered rectangular structure, a requirement necessary to cover existing recreational and sporting facilities, ASATI spearheaded the major breakthrough in the development of indoor tennis enclosures. Five years later, ASATI introduced and patented the first cable safety net system. Using the Bias Cable Net System, Harvard University commissioned ASATI to construct the world’s largest air-structure of its time to cover their track and field facility, allowing year-round indoor sports. ASATI’s commitment to its clients, and ability to provide the most current and secure structural design, asserts and maintains our leadership position within in the industry. In the last 54 years ASATI has patented, designed, engineered, and built more than 5,000 air-supported structures worldwide. Subsequently ASATI has received awards for many projects, including special citations from Fabric Structures Association, American Institute of Architecture, and The American Association of School Administrators.
