A giant inflatable product replica reproduces a product or its packaging on a large scale, with its shape, colours and label printed on the fabric. Digital Inflatables made an 8 m tall evian bottle, a 6 m pressure cooker marking 70 years of the SEB cooker, a 5 m Maggi bottle for Nestlé Suisse in Vevey and 100 Tsingtao bottles, each 3 m tall.

Which products can be made as giant inflatables?

A bottle, a can, a jar, a tube, a flask or a kitchen item, in fabric printed in the brand’s colours.

Drinks: the evian mineral water bottle, the Activia kefir bottle, an orange juice bottle for Huiyuan in Hong Kong.

Food: the Maggi seasoning bottle, the Nutella jar, the Ben & Jerry’s ice cream tub.

Household: the SEB pressure cooker and the LE CHAT detergent bottle. A vehicle can be enlarged too, like this red inflatable scooter.

An everyday shape that is not a branded product belongs with giant custom inflatable shapes.

What size and how many copies?

On these projects, sizes run between 60 cm and 8 m tall, and orders between a single piece and a series of 500.

Large: the evian bottle is 8 m tall, the SEB cooker 6 m, the Maggi bottle and the gin bottle 5 m each, the Dr Pepper cans 3.5 m.

In series: 100 bottles of 3 m for Tsingtao, 100 Solabiol displays of 1 m and 60 cm for SBM Company, 500 dental burs of 80 cm for 3TECH.

For the cosmetics brand essence, tube replicas and printed buoys are available from 30 pieces.

How do you reproduce a product exactly as an inflatable?

The shape is modelled in 3D and approved, then the fabric is printed from the packaging files, cut and sewn. For LE CHAT, design and the 3D proof took 3 days.

Each LE CHAT bottle is UV-printed in high definition, filled by a rechargeable 12 V pump and stands on a reinforced flat base.

The Tsingtao labels and the gin bottle label are dye-sublimation printed: the ink sinks into the fibre and keeps fine detail.

A material’s look can be printed too: the trompe-l’oeil thermos looks lacquered and silver, on plain white fabric.

The files to send are in the briefing guide, print processes in the fabrics and printing guide.

Can a replica go in a shop, at a trade show or outdoors?

Wherever the product needs to be seen: on shelves for LE CHAT, in 100 supermarkets in France, at a trade show in Paris for 3TECH, outdoors in Vevey for the Maggi bottle.

Outdoors, a large replica is tied down: guy ropes held the 5 m Maggi bottle in front of the Nestlé headquarters in Vevey.

A replica can even float: for essence, purple buoys bearing the brand name were placed on a pool in Paris.

See the guide to using inflatables indoors and the wind guide.

How much does a giant inflatable product replica cost?

The 5 m gin bottle was offered at 4’900 francs in 2019. The price depends mostly on size, quantity and printing.

In a series, every piece shares the same pattern and print file, so the unit price drops.

More budgets are in the custom inflatable price guide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to make an inflatable replica?

The Nutella jar was produced in 5 days; the 100 Tsingtao bottles were delivered in under 4 weeks.

How big can a giant inflatable bottle be?

The LE CHAT display is 1.3 m tall, the evian bottle 8 m.

Can an inflatable replica stay outdoors?

Yes, tied down and deflated when the wind picks up, like the 5 m Maggi bottle in Vevey or the 3.5 m Dr Pepper cans.

Can an inflatable replica work as in-store advertising?

Yes. The 1.3 m LE CHAT bottle went into 100 supermarkets in France, on top of the displays.

Why would a brand choose an inflatable replica?

An enlarged product stands out from afar and folds away after the event. For Dr Pepper France, 3 cans of 3.5 m flagged a sampling operation.
