The Habitat has been universally
acclaimed for its outstanding performance and reliability in remote
applications.
|
- PRIVATE AND
PUBLIC CAMPGROUND OWNERS/OPERATORS
– provides comfortable, cost-effective overnight
accommodation for park guests. Many would-be campers can’t enjoy the
great outdoors due to the prohibitive cost of purchasing appropriate
camping equipment. Tourists and non traditional campers alike
can now enjoy the camping experience in relative luxury in a fully
outfitted Habitat shelter in select parks in North America.
In fact, Design Shelter has modified our standard design to specifically
accommodate a new line of “Parks Habitat” shelters. Full 6’
– 6” high (198 cm) vertical sidewalls, a full sized hinged and latched
door to accommodate wheelchairs and integral electrical wiring harness
and ruggedized dual bulb self contained fluorescent light sets have been added among other
things to make the camping experience as comfortable and enjoyable
as possible. Winterized versions are also popular for those
individuals interested in a comfortable winter camping experience.
- ECO-TOURISM
OPERATORS/OUTFITTERS –
provides guest accommodation for remote hiking trails, cross country
skiing, bird watching, ice fishing and wild game camps. People are
turning to eco-tourism operators around the world to escape the hustle
and bustle of the city. Camps made up of several Parks Habitat
models fill a need for comfortable and reliable shelter in remote
locations without going to the expense of setting up permanent cabins
and lodges. Camps can be easily set up and moved to other areas
to follow a herd of wild animals or to preferred fishing spots.
An easy to assemble camp that is simple and convenient to relocate
offers eco-tourism operators unprecedented convenience.
- EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
- provides command centres and emergency outposts
for teams responsible for assisting citizens after a natural disaster
such as a hurricane, earthquake or flood. FEMA (Federal Emergency
Management Agency) and USAR (Urban Search and Rescue) teams utilize
the Habitat and Long Habitat for a post disaster command and dormitory
style sleeping facilities across Canada and the United States.
- SEARCH AND
RESCUE –
provides temporary relief shelters and field offices for remote search
and rescue missions.
- MILITARY
- provides command posts, remote tactical shelters, warehouses and
portable medical facilities. Military Habitat’s allow maximum free
standing floor space in a vertical sidewall shelter design.
With optional integral heavy duty vinyl floor covers, integrated electrical
wiring harness and ruggedized dual bulb self contained fluorescent light systems, double
width doors and removable windows, the military Long Habitat shelter
offers maximum flexibility in a medium sized soft walled shelter.
Current uses for our military design include, tactical command posts,
chemical warfare decontamination shelters, ablution facilities, mess
halls, barracks, medical treatment shelters, portable warehouses and
currently serve as general tactical field operation shelters for land
mine retrieval operations internationally.
- FOREST INDUSTRY
and MINING –
provides field offices and accommodation for fire fighting, silviculture
and tree planting crews and field offices, kitchen facilities and
sleeping quarters for prospectors and geologists.
- EXPLORATION
TEAMS
– provides field offices and sleeping quarters for mineral exploration,
archeological digs and base camp accommodations for major mountain
climbing expeditions.
- RECREATIONAL
CAMPERS – provides
comfortable soft walled “cabin” for remote property owners or additional
guest accommodation. Building permits are not required due to the
portable nature of the shelter design.
- MISCELLANEOUS

can be used for outdoor trade show shelters, gazebos, shelter for
backyard events and as portable storage shelters.
