Why Span Systems

What Sets Us Apart

In-House Installation Crew

We don't subcontract installation. Our own field crew handles every tensioning, every connection, and every final adjustment — giving you one point of accountability from design through completion.

35+ Years of Specialist Focus

Founded in 1989, Span Systems has spent over three decades doing one thing — tensile fabric structures. That singular focus means deeper expertise, faster problem-solving, and better outcomes on every project.

Truly Global Reach

With offices in Exeter, NH and Budapest, Hungary, and projects across 15+ countries, we bring full design-build capability to international projects — navigating cross-border complexity so you don't have to.

How We Work

From Concept to Completion

01
Concept & Design

We collaborate with your architects and engineers to develop the form, material selection, and preliminary budget — before a single drawing is stamped.

02
Engineering

Our in-house structural engineers produce PE-stamped drawings, load calculations, and connection details — peer-reviewed and code-compliant.

03
Fabrication

Steel, cable, and membrane components are precision-fabricated to our specifications and tested before leaving the shop.

04
Installation

Our own field crew handles every installation — from anchor bolts to final fabric tensioning — coordinated directly with your general contractor.
