Flying Mattress
Airstar has launched its first grip balloon: the Flying Mattress.
After a first try of a flying bounce, asked by Alex Lamarque (AFC) on the early 2000, Airstar developed a flying screen of 6x6m (20'x20').
With 2 different designs, it can diffuse the sunlight and prove a knockdown diffusion of 1 f-stop or 2 f-stops, wether it has a transparent or a white side. Multiple units can be zipped together with ease to build a 6x12m (20'x40'), a 6x18m (20'x60') or a 12x12m (40'x40'), and it goes on from there...
Airstar also offers different adaptable screens such as Ultrabounce, Single Net or even a Green Screen that can be easily attached onto The Cloud.
Just imagine having a flying Green Screen!

Black Shutter
The little brother of our Flying Mattress.
Its first aim is to completely block the incoming light from unreachable high windows or stained glass windows in churches, where the Flying Mattress is too large.
