OUR COMMITMENT TO CONSUME LESS WATER WITH THIS PRODUCT
Textile dyeing requires a lot of water but also produces waste water from the dye baths.
We chose to use the process in which the colour pigments are added during the production of the yarn itself.
We chose to use this process on part of the flysheet and the bedroom of this tent.
Pitching and striking the tent
Quick pitching.
The tent is free-standing: you can place it wherever you want once it has been deployed in order to choose the best location.
When there is no wind, you do not have to anchor it with tent pegs.
This tent is easy to fold away using the guiding system.
Mattress compatibility
Recommended tent with a self-inflating mattress or trekking mattress up to 60 cm wide.
We do not recommend using inflatable mattresses, that are more than 6 cm thick, in this tent.
Indeed, this greatly reduces the volume inside the tent and increases condensation inside.
Ventilation of the tent
The tent has 1 air vent at the top, 2 side vents and 1 inner door with a mesh upper section to allow for the flow and replacement of air between the bedroom and the flysheet, and to eliminate the natural formation of condensation as much as possible.
Waterproofing of the tent
All our tents are validated in the laboratory and in the field to guarantee the waterproofing.
To do this, we put the entire tent under a 200 L/h shower for 3 hours.
The flysheet is made of 2000mm Schmerber PU-coated polyester and the groundsheet is made of 120g/m² polyethylene. All the seams are sealed with thermobonded tape.
Wind resistance
We test all our tents in a wind tunnel on a turntable to expose each side to the wind. A properly pitched tent with all the guy ropes properly positioned around the tent should remain habitable in wind speeds of up to 50 km/h measured near ground level (Force 6).

Warranty of your tent:
This camping tent was designed for occasional outdoor use (4 weeks per year) during your camping trips or in the countryside.
Continuous exposure to UV light over a period of several weeks can damage its textile part.
Our tents do not belong to the category of "garden furniture" and are not designed to be kept outdoors permanently.
To maximise the lifetime of your tent, it's important to store it properly when it is not being used.
3-year guarantee.
Don't throw away, repair!
Our tents are great for camping at night.
Over time, they age and some parts may wear out or break.
To facilitate repairs, we keep a stock of parts (tent poles, flysheets, bedrooms, etc.) so that they can be easily replaced.
Don't throw away, repair !
