About
ICON Shelter Systems Inc. – The Infrastructure of Fun™
ICON Shelter Systems Inc. has been in the business of providing places to connect for over ten years. Our shelters, gazebos, pavilions and arbors have become gathering places in hundreds of parks nation-wide for recreation, relaxation and social interaction.
Parks and recreation provide opportunities for us to stay connected, be active and healthy, and experience time together where we build memories. ICON shelters, gazebos, pavilions and arbors create the sense of place where these experiences happen. They are the Infrastructure of Fun.
In a time of diminished budgets, they are also a good value. Products that are well designed, expertly fabricated and durably finished provide longer lasting service with lower maintenance costs. ICON personnel have combined experience of over 75 years in the design, engineering and detailing of steel framed park structures. Certified welders build the components of each shelter under the stringent quality assurance program used to gain approved fabricator status for cities such as Houston, Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada. The steel frame finishing system provides the thickest coating of liquid epoxy primer and graffiti-resistant TGIC powder coat in the industry.
Well designed facilities provide opportunities for residents and guests to enjoy recreational activities that enrich the quality of life. The way you build it makes a difference. For more information on ICON Shelter Systems Inc., and the products they make, visit their website, www.iconshelters.com, or call them at (800) 748-0985.
Public parks are all about connection. ICON can help to facilitate that experience.
