Bye Bye Kerry and Phil, last minute decisions, full speed ahead!


Airquee sales has been very busy this week--It’s been a mad rush, last minute orders, last minute decisions about inflatables, it’s been go go go…
Our stars this week have been Bonita and Jade on our Repairs and Inspection desk. They are like Laurel and Hardy, very funny ladies with the warm charm of the Welsh.
If you need any last minute help here, call them on 0117 9414918 option 3!

(We can help you out, call us NOW!)


Our guys in the Cwmbran warehouse have not stopped with the amount of work that’s coming in…..great work ladies and well done. Kris is now our roving onsite measurer and design guru….up and down the UK ( and Europe!) meeting Clients and advising on new ideas.

In Romania, the factory waved goodbye this week to Kerry and Phil after their mammoth 2 week trip to our busy factories.Kerry even cooked the Production team a Sunday Roast, including Romanian Yorkshire Puddings and gravy…. They loved it. A big thank you to Edina, our lovely factory Office Administrator . Newly promoted, she has been organising everyone!! Website, price lists, stock levels, erange…her talents are endless.

Our designers Rob and Ryan, Bela and Laci have moved Heaven and Earth these last weeks working on new 3d designs for brand new projects for later in the Summer.
It always amazes us how hard they work, their concentration knows no bounds, passion for detail…that’s why we make some of the best designed and clever inflatables in the world today.

Check out our website for new ideas on www.airquee.com  or call our happy sales staff on 0117 9414918 option 1!

Happy Easter to you all...

Blizzard in ROMANIA, Mark is planning and we're running full speed!


News this week.  Romania has been hit with heavy snow and blizzards… in March!! Spring!!!  Kerry and Phil are over for one of the many TWO week stints in Romania to gee up the troops, help with procedures, new ideas and generally cause mischief and what happened? It snowed and snowed and SNOWED. Tons of the stuff and Kerry even fell over a few times while walking in to the factory…  shame it’s not on film as we could have earned £250!!! …back at HQ Cwmbran, the snow has gone, the daffodils are sprouting and it is quite tropical compared to our factory and things are going wonderfully;  our new recruit, Vicky, is calling loads of clients seeing what the plans are next year - she is learning the ropes fast and like all of us were in the early days she is AMAZED by the many interesting products Airquee make.
(Airquee 1, Factory under snow)

Ollie is back from his week off where he managed to get some R ‘n’ R in the West of Wales countryside.  Wayne has finally gone back to slimming world AGAIN….he was quite naughty at Christmas, eating sweet stuff and generally enjoying himself with too much grub I bet… now that his trousers are getting a tad tight he has succumbed.  GOOD LUCK WAYNE!  Carole is still the queen of the Pool Inflatables, getting orders in left right and centre - och aye the nooo!!

Mark is busy planning his next European trip, off to see our Dutch German and French contacts….. and have meeting after meeting with Oscar.   This year is proving to be very busy again, business is already up on last year and we are looking at major orders throughout the summer… GET IN QUICK if you know that you need something exciting for SUMMER, it will sooooooon be here!

Vicky, Ghost Town, Europe and Directors in ROMANIA!


Sooooooooooooo, it’s all go at the two factories!  Orders are flying in from all over the Globe and that means busy, busy, busy!  Phil and Kerry had an interesting trip over battling heavy rain and winds during the 3 hour road trip from Bucharest to Sfântu Gheorghe. Exciting things are happening during their two week stay as the next HUUUUUUUGGGGEEEE inflatable THEME PARK will be inflated TODAY on the massive field adjacent to Airquee One and Kerry is soooooooooooooooo excited!  You never know there could be another Facebook Live!!!

Back at HQ Cwmbran it’s like a Ghost Town as Ollie is off on his holidays at a secret location somewhere in the UK with his menagerie of animals… Jade, our resident Bridezilla is also enjoying some quality family time this week in Wales which means that Bonita or Wonita as Kerry calls her has been solely in charge of booking in all Repairs and Testing and she has done an amazing job!!!  Making good use of her headset as she flies around the office and warehouse.

(Ghost Town, in our Cwmbran office!)

We welcomed a new Business Development Executive to the Sales Team, Vicky, so this week has been a huge learning curve for her as this is the first time she has worked with inflatables… WELL DONE VICKY you have done a sterling job!

 (Vikcy at work wohooo, go Vicky!)

Meanwhile in Europe, Hadek our Distributor in Belgium is busy planning his Open Weekend so if you are around the area pop in and grab yourself a brand new inflatable as there will be some new products that have never been seen before in Europe.

(Check out the open days!)


Back on the border of Holland and Germany, Oscar has been settling into the new Airquee Europe office and has had an influx of customers visiting him… exciting times ahead as in a couple of weeks a new addition to the team will be starting too… more to follow in a few weeks.

Dogs in Parks, Snow is off and MOTHER'S DAY!


The snow has melted- the last ‘dregs’ were on the Cwmbran car park on Monday morning.  We are now back to normal, phew!
Mark is still drinking Sangria in Tenerife and will be back this week, probably with a well-earned suntan. Lady Macca and her trusted companion, Norman the patterdale have been on the road, North South, East West visiting clients, discussing new ideas and projects in the pipeline and  brand new businesses to Airquee looking for us to create something special. Shhhhh it's all Top Secret. It appears that Norman was Chief Tester at an installation this week and was having fun during the training session on the HUUUUUUGGGGEEE 90m x 30m INFLATABLE THEME PARK

Click here to see Norman!

Wayne, Carole and Ollie haven’t stopped since the thaw and orders are coming in thick and fast. We also welcome a NEW addition to our UK Sales Team at HQ Cwmbran; VICKY… new to the industry Vicky is being blown away by all of the inflatable jargon and vast array of innovative Airquee products!

Wayne is looking after our French customers ‘sacre blue’…after Solene’s departure and the Lucky Lady is off to the far east in a weeks’ time fo a full 9 months. Let’s hope she applies the SUNSCREEN!



Our TWO amazing factories are still working flat out making and creating our incredible inflatables and we couldn’t be happier.

Oscar in the Netherlands, our Airquee European Director is doing his bit to conquer Germany and get more buyers to choose Airquee and it is working as word spreads. Oscar is well known to the Europeans and his years of experience and knowledge are invaluable.

A word of thanks to our senior Design staff who all work hard, under pressure to create all the beautiful products we make they and the Stitching Teams are our unsung heroes. Well done to Rob, Ryan, Laci, Bela and all the other designers and visualists at our factories.

Phil H and Lady Macca are off to join our Romanian Team next week. More news to follow next week…… Be patient and if you can’t wait why not get on Facebook and Instagram!

PS. It’s MOTHER’S DAY this SUNDAY!!!

SNOW SNOW AND MORE SNOW- THE BEAST FROM THE EAST ARRIVES IN CWMBRAN



This week at Airquee was dominated by the winter weather that hit the UK. The Siberian winds and arctic cold weather arrived on Wednesday night, then it started to snow and it hasn’t stopped.

Even Airquee Cwmbran had to succumb to the Polar blasts and knee deep snow and shut its doors today. Our Factory Team are finding this hilarious as annually they soldier on through -30 temperatures and metre deep snow drifts and we are halted at a mere fluttering! Don’t think we’ve all got a day off and gone sledging we are all here, working remotely from our warm homes ready for those orders, questions, advice, repairs and testing bookings. Just call 0117-9414918 option 1 and we will be here. 
(Norman and a lot of SNOW!)


All deliveries have been cancelled by the shippers so this is beyond our control; we hope to have normal business resumed next week. 
(Deliveries are back on Monday 5th)


Our other news was Solene, our multilingual sales executive left us on Wednesday she brought in a HUGE delicious strawberry cake for everyone and then said her goodbyes. She will be off on the Far East travels very very soon. Au revoir Solene.

Mark our illustrious leader took to the skies for warmer climes this week to work he says….. Tenerife for a week!  He seems to enjoy shopping so we bet he has bought a 4ft Straw Donkey, a large Sombrero and a pair of castanets….ole…. bring us back some duty free !!!
(Bon Voyage Mark!)

If you have any questions about our inflatable range, a specific product you have your eye on, something in stock or you want us to do a safety inspection or PIPA just call us on  0117-9414918 and we are here to help between 8am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday, evenings and weekends we do our best to respond to social media too.

Keep safe in the snow!

Bowling, Big NEWS and Sol's leaving...


Another exciting week at Airquee. We have had lots of Visitors this week. Lots of brand new ideas discussed and potential orders to come !!
The orders have simply not stopped here in the UK, and orders are picking up a pace in Europe.

Today, Airquee opened in 1st Germany Office…Wunderbar !! Airquee Europe has 3 staff now and will be getting bigger and bigger in the months to come. Supported from the UK as well, we are delighted to have a foothold in Europe’s 2nd Biggest market.
(The UK Office bowling)

Sad new, our Solene is leaving next week for pastures new. Last night, as a going away bash, the whole Cwmbran office including the Bosses took everyone out for a slap up meal followed by a night out Bowling. 2 teams, 'the Good at bowling’ team versus the ‘Useless at Bowling team’. Guess what, the ‘Good’ ones won the game, with Ryan, our Designer winning the Title of Top Scorer. He's certainly brilliant at throwing those balls !! Phil H came in last position-he couldn’t throw a ball in a straight line if he tried…he came last !! haha.
(Oh, Bye Bye Sol *sadface*)

Pancakes, Our factories working flat out and a French Au Revoir?

The troops arrived back to Cwmbran after a successful Irish show outside Dublin. I bet some Guinness was drunk  !! I bet Adam from Romania downed a few over there.

In Romania, our 2 factories hit an all-time high of Production this week (PS can’t tell- you its
top secret) Thank you one and all for your hard work and efforts. Our business is going from strength to strength.


This week, there was some normality…..Half Term in England, lots of Hirers were on the phones ordering last minute inflatables for the summer.

Lady McIvor did us proud on Shrove Tuesday with her take on ‘How many pancakes can I make from this small box of batter?’ quiz. Yummy, they were delicious…One of our customers, Reiss Taylor Remblance guessed closest– she made 17 pancakes!
 And he won a £75 voucher off any future purchase. Well done Reiss.
(Kerry working her magic in the kitchen)

The next big event is Sol’s leaving do….next week we are all- everyone in Cwmbran HQ- going Bowling and having a slap up Burger and chips !! Lovely stuff. Au Revoir, ma Cherie …we will miss you. 


Our Airquee Europe- colleague in the Netherland, Oskar is nailing business hand over fist.. well done to him too.
