No, you can get your hoop barn in almost any color you want. What we’re telling you here is that hoop buildings are green. Not the color green but ecologically friendly, earth saving, green.
Hoop buildings are perhaps one of the most sustainable of all the types of buildings in common use today. Our hoop shelters are made from steel, the number one eco friendly material, and recyclable HDPE fabric. HDPE is the most commonly recycled type of plastic. Hoop barnss are also able to be almost 100% recycled.
Hoop shelters are also ecologically efficient in several ways. Here are some of the energy and earth saving advantages:
Hoop structures use lightweight materials like wood, metal tubing, and fabric, requiring less energy to transport and manufacture compared to heavier materials like brick or concrete. Most hoop sheds are made of steel and all steel contains a percentage of recycled steel.
Hoop buildings typically require minimal or no foundation compared to traditional buildings, reducing the amount of concrete and excavation needed. This saves resources and minimizes disturbance to the soil.
Hoop buildings often generate less construction waste compared to traditional buildings due to the minimal foundations and efficient design.
The curved shape of hoop buildings maximizes space utilization and minimizes material use while projecting maximum strength.
The combination of the arched design and fabric cover allow for ample natural light penetration with most fabric colors, reducing reliance on artificial lighting. Additionally, the curved shape facilitates natural ventilation, minimizing the need for mechanical air conditioning and heating.
Fabric hoop buildings can be easily disassembled and relocated, minimizing their permanent impact on the land. This can be beneficial for temporary structures or in sensitive ecosystems.
Overall, hoop buildings are a valuable tool for sustainable construction when designed and built with ecological considerations in mind. Their potential for reduced material use, energy efficiency, and minimal environmental impact make them a promising option for various applications. We feel hoop barns meet the EPA’s own definition of a green sustainable building and we’re proud of that!

At the Hoop Barn, we believe that bigger truly is better! Our Rushmore double truss barns over 85 feet not only offer more space but also come at a lower cost per square foot compared to shorter buildings. Why? Because setting up for a larger structure takes the same time and labor as a smaller one, allowing us to pass those savings directly to you. Plus, with our commitment to fair pricing, we ensure that you get the best value without compromising quality. Discover why investing in a larger fabric building is a smart choice that benefits everyone involved!
