| Introduction
Design Shelter Systems proudly presents
an outstanding innovation in portable camps and shelters, The Habitat and
Long Habitat.
The octagonal shape of the Habitat along
with its vertical sidewalls and full-sized hinged and latched door are
the standard features that interest most natural resource industry professionals.
The octagonal shape was incorporated to model an Arctic "igloo". This shape
maximizes the resistance to wind. Full-sized vertical sidewalls and hinged
door add comfort to those inside, while making full use of all available
floor space. The Habitat fulfills a need more effectively than any other
shelter.
The Habitat and Long Habitat are designed
and manufactured by Design Shelter Inc.. Design Shelter Inc. is a wholly
owned private company incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada. In-house
design capability allows the company to respond to customers’ specific
modification requests.
Flexibility
Is the Key To Habitat’s Success
The Habitat family of shelters has become
popular around the world for its unlimited range of applications and superior
design. Some of the current uses of our shelters include: kitchen tents,
dining halls, sleeping facilities and field offices for tree planting crews,
prospectors and developers, forest fire fighters, exploration crews and
scientists. Outfitters across North America use our products as outpost
camps for their clients and public and private campground owners and operators
use the Habitat as overnight accommodations for park guests.
We have sent cabins internationally for
use as first-aid and surgical facilities in Ethiopia and as base camps
for expeditions climbing Mount Everest and Mount Gasherbrum in Pakistan.
The Habitat has consistently withstood the elements.
The Habitat is now widely used as remote
field accommodations. The design is ideally suited to camp situations of
a portable and semi-permanent nature. Where short- term portable camps
are required, the Habitat assembles and breaks down quickly and easily
without tools. The unique articulated mainframe folds down to a manageable
size, suitable for transport. On the other hand, due to the strength of
its aircraft grade non-corrosive aluminum frame, it is also ideal for extended
camp operations of long duration.
An
International Product
The Habitat and Long Habitat series of shelters have a long history of being placed in active service in markets world-wide. This experience has proven that the products are universally accepted across some of the more demanding environmental conditions present. From the windswept coast of Baffin Island to the harsh deserts of Ethiopia and Somalia, and from 19,000 feet in the Himalayan Mountains to the deep forests of Canada, Habitat performance is unsurpassed.
In order to make the product more widely available in local markets, Design Shelter Inc. is actively soliciting distributors and/or area directors world-wide. If you are interested in potentially representing Design Shelter in either Europe, Africa, Asia, New Zealand or Australia as a distributor, agent or area director, please contact us by e-mail or telephone at your earliest convenience.
