From Concept to Crowd Favorite: How We Brought Cardo’s Big Idea to Life

May 5, 2025

When Cardo Systems reached out with a bold idea—to turn their Edgephones into a larger-than-life inflatable—we were ready to make it happen. It was the kind of high-visibility moment their brand deserved—and exactly the kind of challenge we love.

From Product Photos to Show-Stopping Display

It all started with a few product photos. From there, detailed 3D renderings were created to bring every shape, curve, and feature of the Edgephones to life. This wasn’t just any inflatable—it was a true-to-form replica, built to impress.

Once the renderings were approved, the inflatable moved into production. We stayed closely involved throughout the process—making sure the finished inflatable delivered on the vision and represented Cardo’s brand with impact.

Quality Checked and Event Ready

Before heading out the door, the inflatable went through a full quality control process. Structure, seams, color accuracy—every detail was reviewed to ensure it matched the original vision.

A Standout Moment

When the inflatable Edgephones made their debut at High Lifter Mud Nationals in Texas, they were impossible to miss. The larger-than-life replica quickly became the main attraction—drawing attention, turning heads, and serving as a bold visual anchor for the Cardo brand.

It was the perfect setting to show off something bold and unexpected—and the response said it all. Projects like this are a blast to bring to life, especially when they combine creativity, scale, and a great client partnership.

Why Custom Inflatables Work

Oversized product inflatables aren’t just cool—they’re strategic. Whether it’s a trade show, outdoor event, or brand activation, inflatables attract attention, encourage photos, and build buzz in a way that flat banners just can’t.

From giant product replicas to logos and mascots, we help brands go big—literally.
