Did you know, the first ever inflatable structure was devised in 1959 by John Scurlock, in Louisiana? Experimenting with inflatable covers for tennis courts, he noticed his employees very much enjoyed jumping on these covers! Since he was a mechanical engineer and liked physics, he became a pioneer of inflatable domes, tents, signs and his greatest achievement- the safety air cushion, which has been used by fire and rescue departments ever since.
The first space walk manufacturing company appeared in 1968, New Orleans, when John Scurlock’s son built a custom facility for the production and rental of the inflatable products. He also founded the first inflatable indoor park called ‘The Fun Factory’ in 1986.
