Natural Light

Animal comfort is an important factor in health and production and the bright interior of a FastCover building provides daytime lighting that reduces the need for electricity and increases the comfort level of your herd. The fabric covers on our farm buildings allow for a high amount of light transfer resulting in a soft, nearly shadow-free interior, even on cloudy days. When daylight is no longer available to light your barn, the bright white underside of the covers helps to reflect and disperse artificial lighting often requiring both fewer lights and using less electricity to light your fabric shelter.

Ventilation

FastCover livestock farm buildings feature a large air volume and high ceiling heights. With the installation of proper vents, warm moist air is drawn up and exhausted out the vents, replaced with fresh air.

Wide Open Clear Span Space

There are no internal columns or low level bracing or supports to get in the way of movement or placement of pens, equipment, fencing, or feed bunks. You can configure your fabric farm building however necessary to manage your operations. A clear span building can be built to any length so it is also possible to design a dual purpose with animal housing at one end of the farm building and storage for hay/feed or equipment maintenance at the other end. Whether utilizing the building as a cattle shelter or protecting and storing your crops and feed, a FastCover Building offers year round shelter and the wide open access you need.

Long Lasting Quality

All FastCover truss components are powder coat painted providing a protective smooth finish that creates a long-lasting barrier that helps to prevent any premature wear in corrosive environments. Our NovaShield II membrane fabric building covers will not rust. Read about our 15 year warranty.

Temperature Moderation

The fabric covers do not radiate heat and cold the same way as other building materials such as metal. The non-conductive properties of the covers help to keep the building feeling cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. When used as an animal/cattle shelter, this temperature moderation provides a more comfortable, low stress, environment.

QUALITY & INNOVATION,
COMBINED WITH VALUE.

These are the benchmarks that have made FastCover^TM a recognized industry leader.

[wpc_custom_heading heading=”Read Our Testimonials” colored_line=”yes”][wpc_testimonial_carousel style=”inverted” names=”Putts Transfer. Winnipeg MB.,Darrel A. Vehicle & Boat Storage. Prince Edward Island,”]I am the owner of a growing moving business. I was looking at options for a space to store my trucks, materials, and equipment. A family member who had recently purchased a similar building referred me to FastCover for their easily assembled, well-constructed fabric structures, and superior customer service. The FastCover structure I purchased was affordable, allowing me to grow my business in other ways, and has proved itself very durable, requiring little repair and maintenance. As my crew and I were assembling the building ourselves, we ran into an issue raising the tarp; we called FastCover and they promptly sent over two knowledgeable installers to assist us and we were done in no time. I would not hesitate to recommend FastCover to anyone. The staff were courteous and helpful, and they supplied a great quality product that was perfect for my company. If you are considering a structure from FastCover, take it from me… there is no better service out there.

I needed extra storage and with my new FastCover I am now able to use my other building for my business. I heard about FastCover from a friend and when I called the sales person, she was very pleasant and went the extra mile to make sure everything went well for me. FastCover was the only company who asked me what I wanted instead of telling me what I wanted. My new Portable FastCover doesn’t require any type of cement footing which made it more cost effective. I installed it myself and anytime I had any questions they were just a phone call away. You will get good service here because they make you feel like a person and not just another sale. I have had my FastCover for one winter now and it stood strong in 120km. Very Impressive![/wpc_testimonial_carousel]
