Abstract: We study constructions of contact forms on closed manifolds. A notion of strong symplectic fold structure is defined and we prove that there is a contact form on $MxX$ provided that $M$ admits such a structure and $X$ is contact. This result is extended to fibrations satisfying certain natural conditions. Some examples and applications are given.
