Domes & Spheres

AFE produces fiberglass domes, hemispheres, and spheres. These include both high and low profile options.  Fiberglass enables significant cost savings in structural support, finish, and installation costs. Compare our spectacular full and low profile pre-made domes to those made with stone or drywall—fiberglass is more lightweight, easier to install, and non-cracking. Plus, the benefit of quick fabrication and easy customization of FRP domes!
