ShelterBox is a charitable organization that offers proper shelter and other essential items to disaster stricken areas. Each ShelterBox shelter kit comes with a rugged dome tent modeled after a typical African bush hut, which comes with built-in mosquito screens, integral groundsheets, good ventilation, and internal privacy screens; thermal blankets are also included in the kit. A wood-burning or multi-fuel stove, pans, utensils, mugs, water storage containers, and water purification equipment are a part of the kit, as is a basic tool kit with items such as a hammer, ax, saw, hoe head, rope, pliers, and wire cutters. Finally, ShelterBox also provides children’s packs containing drawing books, crayons, and pens.

who makes the tent and stove. be a cool thing to buy for a bugout supply
They don’t specify the manufacturers of the contents of their kits. All I can say is the tent is supposedly designed by ShelterBox themselves.
I was the account manager for a vendor to Shelterbox a while back. Great organisation. They source the tents from some of the largest retail tent-makers in the marketplace. I forget the name, but there is one primary european manufacturer, and then a number of secondaries, depending on volume required, that they use. The tents are designed by Shelterbox, based on experience gathered from previous distributions.
