Krzeminski says Shelter Structures is
continually pressed to design structures
that are stronger, more distinct and mobile.
" The challenge is usually between
convenience and technology and how
that works harmoniously with pragmatics
and strength, " he explains. " We need
to ensure that we are considering all elements
to create the best option possible. "
Because of their versatility, A-frames can
be deployed for all manner of purposes, although
his company's disaster relief tents

" We have seen firsthand the importance
of having temporary facilities available
for emergency response and disaster
relief, " says Krzeminski. " Whether Mother
Nature hands us a natural disaster or a
pandemic rocks the globe, temporary
structures offer reliable options to bring

As we are continually faced with these
circumstances, the need, demand and
development of temporary structure
use in various emergency capacities will
expand and continue to prove worthy. "
