There exists a naming confusion in the industry that makes it hard for the customer to find what they are looking for so we will define the terms used.
A simple design by the British Hovercraft Company, BHC which was founded by the Hovercraft inventor, Sir Christopher Cockerel became a phenomenon. Air Caster technology in the late 1950's and early 1960's when Boeing and GM explored the technology under a license from BHC. two different types of Air Caster were born, one was based on a torus bag that looks like a small inner tube or flat donut with a square plate of aluminum as a base plate and then there came the competitive Diaphragm type that emulated the original BHC Hoverpad.

Air Platforms

Used in combination with our specialized Drive Tractors these platforms can be designed to carry any shaped load with load capacities of 1 ton up to 100 ton and more.
