How can a Mini Kata Tipi help my business?
The Mini Kata looks good as a stand alone structure, and equally at home as part of a collection of tipis. This gives you plenty of options regarding usage. The UK weather is unpredictable and a small structure like this can mean the difference between organised events being able to go ahead, or having to cancel.
Are Kata Tipis weatherproof?
Yes they certainly are. The canvas we selected for our range of tipis is the best waterproof and fire retardant material on the market.
How quickly can we get a tipi from Kata?
As we manufacture our tipis in-house, we have full control over the process, which means our lead times are shorter than other companies. If you need your structure for a certain date just talk to us about your requirements and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Is it possible to lease a tipi?
We understand that there are many business start-ups, or existing companies seeking to expand who don’t have the capital in place when they need it. For this reason, we now offer a versatile and tailored lease scheme, just talk to us to find out more.
Do you offer servicing on tipis?
Kata now offers a free auditing service. Our teams come out to do a full on-site inspection, and we then provide you with a report containing recommendations for any replacements or repairs.
Do you have an area of outside space you want to utilise more effectively?
A Kata Tipi can increase the capacity of a restaurant, create a pop-up shop, or provide an event space that never existed before. Let the Kata team help you explore how our versatile structures can help your business unlock it’s hidden potential.
