Why choose Tentipi

There is only one genuine Nordic Event tent company and that is us, Tentipi.

It all started with our founder and, until recently CEO for 36 years, Bengt Ghran, designing and sewing his first tent in the basement of an old school in his home village of Moskosel in Swedish Lapland.

At first he designed and made small camping tents for his own backpacking and canoeing adventures. He soon progressed to design what many would call his masterpiece. He called it the Giant Hat tipi. After 36 years and some clever innovations, the Giant Hat, which we now call the Stratus 72, has changed little and earned its title as the ‘cornerstone’ of the Nordic Event tent industry.

In 2015 the patent on Bengt’s original Giant Hat design expired, with a couple of copycat companies moving in, producing tents with remarkable similarity to our original designs.

This leads some to ask the question ‘why choose Tentipi?’

After considering everything from original designs, unrivalled experience, first class customer service and worldwide sales and support, the answer is very simple…

If you are looking to buy the world’s only genuine Nordic Event tent, made to the very highest standards in Sweden, then it can only ever be Tentipi.
