Our journey with bell tents started in 2016, marking the foundation of our expertise. With a decade of experience distributing and renting bell tents across New Zealand, we decided to reinvent the design. This new version model is tailored specifically for New Zealand’s conditions, combining the finest features we’ve observed in other tents—without any unnecessary extras. We designed the explorer primarily as a long-term option for our rental fleet. This means, it these have been made for look, and longevity.

Our second iteration of the explorer is a true four-season shelter, engineered to withstand both snow and desert conditions. Crafted from technical 300GSM PC canvas, it undergoes custom dyeing and weather sealing. We reinforce tension points and double-stitch seams for exceptional durability. The 25/75 Tentpro®Polycotton blend enhances this strength, combining the natural comfort and breathability of cotton with the durability of polyester thread.
