Our eco-lodges are an innovative new accomodation for manufacturers or distributors as an alternative to standard accomodations which have been offered throughout Australia previously.

They have been designed so as to ensure mobility, but still give that touch of home as they are designed to be semi-permanent structures. This works great for areas which prohibit permanent structures, or only allow camping. The framework of the structure is designed so as to be able to handle the hot harsh deserts, or the humid wetlands and rainforests. The canvas is a combination of treated cotton and synthetic material, and has been constructed to be able to highly resistant to ultra-violet light, rot-proof waterproof and flame retardant. This means that these tents can be used in a variety of climatic conditions, from hot, dry environments through to wetlands and coastal areas.

Our product has been used and tested thoroughly throughout Southern Africa for both Safari's and Camps. It has proven itself in every aspect as an alternative to older and non-conventional methods.The tents can be designed and set up with either a canvas floor, or a prepared solid floor such as concrete or wood planks. The entrance of the tent can also be customised to accomodate your needs.

The eco-lodges are designed so that they can be fastened to almost any flooring surface, be it sand, dirt, concrete, or wood. All windows and open air sections are fitted with a mesh netting to keep the insects out, so you can feel safe and comfortable while you sleep knowing that the bugs are outside.

Layout drawings can be provided to ensure that your preferred site is ready to have one of our tents placed on it. We can also suggest fixtures and commodities such as lighting which may be best suited to your design.

A complete Bedroom or Bathroom suite can easily be incorporated into the unit with various different layouts possible.

These tents are a very afforable alternative to the camper, Safari-goer, or even the bushman. These units can generally be erected in three to four hours on a site which has been prepared prior to setup.

In this day and age, awareness of the environment is more important than ever, especially when you are out in natures best. These eco-lodges have been designed with that exact issue in mind. Eco-lodges have many advantages over conventional accomodations, just a few of these advantages are:

  1. Less expensive than older conventional/traditional accomodation.
  2. Cheaper to ship as the materials are smaller, lighter, and can be packaged more effeciently.
  3. Eco-lodges take a considerable amount less time to set up than older conventional/traditional accomodations.

Because of the speed and portability of these Eco-lodges, they can be pulled down quickly for emergencies or frequent transportation as well stored easily with other travel goods. Also, maintenance is limited to washing of the outside of the canvas, and as such has very low maintenance costs compared to older conventional/traditional accomodations.
