Compost Storage & Processing Buildings
GNB Global designs and builds a selection of tension fabric buildings ideally suited for the recycling building, compost building, anaerobic building, and remediation industries. We’ve worked with companies across North America to produce fabric buildings for recycling buildings, composting buildings, anaerobic buildings, and soil remediation facilities. We offer a choice of buildings ranging from 30 to over 300-foot clear span widths with headroom clearances for large industrial equipment and as much length as needed. With quick delivery and a competitive cost per square foot, GNB’s tension fabric buildings make the perfect solution for the recycling building, compost building, and remediation industries.
GNB Global offers a complete range of fabric buildings, from quick-delivery standard truss buildings to complex one-of-a-kind custom structures. The benefits of our fabric buildings are quick installation, flexible foundation options, lower operational costs, energy savings, naturally bright interiors, corrosion resistance, and the ability to relocate buildings.
We manufacture our buildings utilizing galvanized carbon steel frame trusses covered with an engineered high density polyethylene membrane. Our buildings are fabricated by local labor in our United States and Canadian manufacturing facilities, using raw materials sourced in North America.

Build Bigger
GNB Global’s tension fabric buildings are the largest, most affordable clear span buildings available on the market today. Standard building widths are available up to a massive 150’ wide, with custom building widths available up to 400’ or more. The modular truss and fabric panel design of our buildings allows them to be built to accommodate any length required.
Build Faster
GNB Global fabric buildings are designed for simple and quick installation so builders can complete projects faster, and owners can occupy buildings up to 50-70% faster than conventional construction. Once a project begins, the site crew can prepare the building foundation while we simultaneously fabricate the structure at our manufacturing plant.
Build Smarter
GNB Global’s tension fabric buildings are designed for versatility. Buildings can vary from simple open-end storage structures to fully enclosed, lined, insulated, and climate-controlled buildings. Smart features like our energy-saving translucent membrane that allows filtered daylight to light the interior sets the building apart from common steel buildings.

Made In The United States & Canada
We proudly design, engineer, and fabricate our buildings with labor local to our manufacturing facilities in the United States and Canada.
Steel
Our trusses and steel components are manufactured from steel produced in American and Canadian refineries.
Membrane
NovaShield® II, our primary HDPE membrane, is manufactured in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Steel
You won’t find cheap Chinese, mass-produced metal here. Our trusses and steel components are manufactured from American and Canadian-made, cold-formed seamless carbon steel that conforms to the ASTM A500 standard with a 50 ksi (345 MPa) minimum yield point. On average, our steel is composed of 57% post-consumer recycled content and 31% pre-consumer recycled content.
Our fabricated steel truss components can be finished in a selection of coatings, including hot dip galvanized and powder coated to meet your project specifications.
Membrane
The standard architectural membrane material GNB Global employs is NovaShield® II with ArmorKote™, a Cradle to Cradle certified product. The membrane is available in several colors with either a standard 4 mil coating or a 4 mil flame retardant coating. The NovaShield scrim is produced in a special weaving pattern to enhance thickness, flatness, abrasion resistance, and tear properties. The proprietary coating improves abrasion resistance, flex resistance, seam strength, UV resistance, and longevity.
Other membrane options like HEYtex® PVC, Sheerfill® PTFE, and Shadeshure® HDPE are available.
Foundations
A variety of tension fabric building foundation options are available to meet your specific building requirements and budget. Temporary foundations, often more cost-effective, are a good choice for situations where the building and foundation will be removed in the future, leaving no trace. Temporary foundations include Hogan stakes, duckbill anchors, helical anchors or screw piles, ballast blocks, rig mats, and shipping containers. Permanent foundation options include poured-in-place piers, grade beam, and poured slab foundations.
