Throughout our history, Armbruster has been commissioned to build disaster relief tents to help those in need of temporary shelter or housing. In 2010, following the devastating Haitian earthquake, Armbruster was asked to build disaster relief tents that would serve as temporary housing. Built to withstand the Haitian rain season, the tents followed our company committment to build durable tents that can withstand many weather conditions.  Some features of the disaster relief tents include:

  • Water resistant with no stitching and continuous RF Welded membrane of heavy duty 14oz vinyl, reinforced with vinyl coated webbing and brass grommets
  • Heavy duty tie downs and stakes to withstand strong winds and rain
  • Large spacious interior for ventilation and standing room
  • Large enough to fit 4 cots, or 1-2 families
  • Both ends can be folded up for ventilation and access
  • Each end at top has fine mesh vent to allow for ventilation, but not allow water to enter
  • Vinyl flooring option available
  • Storage bag included
  • UV resistant vinyl for long use (not sewn polyester with no UV protection)
  • Heavy duty wood poles for support and to hang interior hooks, lights, hardware, etc.
  • Flame retardant
