How do I choose the right Ekodome category for my project?

Choosing the right Ekodome depends on how you plan to use the structure, the climate you’re in, and the performance level you need. All four categories use the same precision-engineered aluminum framework, but the panel systems and intended applications are different.

Hard-Shell Domes

Best for: short-term stays, studios, offices, seasonal setups, light accommodation
Panel System: HPL compact laminate + solid polycarbonate
Performance: durable, weather-resistant, low maintenance
Why choose it: a fully enclosed, rigid structure that’s easy to assemble, DIY-friendly, and ideal for moderate climates or seasonal operation.

Greenhouse Domes

Best for: growing, nurseries, homesteads, education, hobby agriculture
Panel System: full polycarbonate (twinwall or solid)
Performance: maximum light transmission or diffusion, passive insulation
Why choose it: designed purely for growing environments where visibility, sunlight, and low-weight panels matter more than insulation.

PRO Domes

Best for: full-time living, commercial glamping, hospitality, harsh climates
Panel System: insulated HPL SIPs + double-pane glass
Performance: 4-season thermal performance, stronger framework with polyamide thermal break, high structural load capacity
Why choose it: the right choice if you need real insulation, comfort, reduced condensation, and long-term residential or hospitality use.

Glass Houses & Skylights

Best for: luxury stays, observatories, event venues, architectural features
Panel System: full double-pane glass
Performance: premium aesthetics, full transparency, high clarity, architectural-grade glazing
Why choose it: perfect when appearance, natural light, or an open-sky experience is the priority over thermal performance.
