In 2024, Digital Inflatables designed and built a set of 100 giant inflatable bottles, each 3 m tall, for Tsingtao, the Chinese brewer founded in 1903 in Qingdao. Each inflatable replica copies the brand’s beer bottle, with its label sublimation-printed for a realistic finish. The whole set was delivered in less than 4 weeks.

What did Digital Inflatables make for Tsingtao?

A set of 100 inflatable beer bottles, all 3 m tall, that reproduce the brand’s bottle on a giant scale.

In the workshop’s photo, the white label carries the name TSINGTAO in blue letters, Chinese characters and a line drawing of a horse-drawn carriage in front of a building; the lower part of the bottle is dark, like the original glass.

The label is sublimation-printed: the dye goes into the fibres of the fabric, so colours stay sharp and the artwork reads clearly from up close and from a distance.

All 100 replicas were designed, printed and assembled in less than 4 weeks.

Who is Tsingtao?

Tsingtao is a Chinese brewer founded in 1903 in Qingdao, where it is still headquartered.

For a beer brand, a giant bottle shows exactly the product people already know: it is recognisable from far away, at the door of a bar, on a stand or in a fan zone, and works as a meeting point or a photo backdrop.

How is a set of identical inflatable bottles made?

It starts from a single pattern and a single print file; each copy is then printed, cut and assembled the same way, so that every bottle looks alike.

A replica like this is usually kept up by an electric blower that holds the shape as long as it runs. Deflated, the fabric folds into a bag, so a whole set takes little room in transport and storage.

To estimate a budget or a schedule, see the guide to custom inflatable prices and the guide to lead times.
