A disaster relief tent provides temporary shelter for families who cannot use their homes after an earthquake, flood or fire, and space for a clinic, aid distribution or meals in tent camps. We supply them based on each institution's requirements list.

Product description

Shelter for the first weeks after a disaster

A disaster relief tent is a temporary shelter where families whose homes are damaged or unsafe stay until permanent housing is ready. It consists of a galvanized steel tube frame and a PVC-coated polyester tarpaulin stretched over that frame. Municipalities, public institutions and aid organizations also keep these tents in stock in their disaster warehouses. We supply the tents by quantity and type according to your requirements list.

A tent camp needs two types of tent. The family tent is the enclosed space where one household sleeps and keeps its belongings. The communal tent is larger and is set up as a clinic, aid distribution point, dining area or coordination center. If you plan your order around the number of each type, you will not be short of space on site.

Options for the Disaster Relief Tent

  • Size: Determined by how many people will stay in it and what the tent will be used for.
  • Winter use: Inner lining, groundsheet and stove pipe outlet options are available. Specify tents going to cold regions when you place your order.
  • Tarpaulin: The fabric weight is chosen per project; we state the weight you choose in writing in the quote.
  • Shipping: The tents arrive packed; we ship to all 81 provinces of Türkiye.

For institutions keeping stock

For institutions that stock tents before a disaster, how the tent is stored also matters. Fold the tarpaulin dry and store it in a closed warehouse; tarpaulin folded damp will mold in storage. Unpack the tents in stock once a year and count the parts. Trying the setup during a drill means the team knows what to do in a real disaster.

For field tents sized to a specification, see the Military Tent page; for other models, see the Disaster Relief Tent category. For a quote, send us the tent types, quantity, number of people per tent and the destination province via the contact page.

How Disaster Relief Tent differs from standard products

TopicOrdinary productThis product
PrivacyIn shared spaces such as sports halls and schools, families share the same hall. The family tent gives each household a separate, enclosed space.
WinterA single layer of tarpaulin needs extra measures in cold regions. Inner lining, groundsheet and stove pipe outlet options are available.
Shared needsFinding a suitable building for a clinic and distribution takes time. The communal tent is set up inside the tent camp.

Using and installing Disaster Relief Tent

  1. Choose the site

    Set up the tent camp on flat, well-draining ground with no risk of flooding or landslides. Site selection is a decision for the local disaster management authority.

  2. Plan the number of tents

    Calculate family tents by the number of households, and communal tents for the clinic, distribution and dining by population.

  3. Prepare the ground

    Clear stones and sharp objects from where the tent will stand. Dig a small trench around it so rainwater does not run under the tent.

  4. Set up and secure

    Assemble the frame, pull the tarpaulin over and tension it, then anchor it with stakes and guy ropes. Check the ropes after every wind.

Care: Fold the tarpaulin dry and store it in a closed warehouse. Unpack the tents in stock once a year and check the parts.
