Spacious Group Shelter for Outdoor Living
The BCT Outdoors Mess Tent is a durable canvas shelter designed to provide comfortable communal space for mealtimes, meetings, group activities and temporary accommodation. Built to the same exacting standards as the rest of the BCT range, it offers a practical and dependable solution for scout groups, outdoor education centres, event organisers and commercial users.
Designed for Group Activities
Whether used as a dining shelter, meeting area or communal space, the Mess Tent provides generous internal room for groups whilst maintaining a practical and functional layout. Heavy-duty zip doors at both the front and rear, combined with mesh ventilation windows and roll-down storm covers, ensure excellent ventilation and protection in changing weather conditions.
Built for Demanding Outdoor Environments
Manufactured from premium 393gsm 'A' Grade cotton duck canvas, the Mess Tent is fire retardant to BS7837 (1996), water repellent, rot resistant and mildew resistant. A robust 28mm zinc-plated steel framework with powder-coated corners provides excellent strength and stability, while the PVC-coated polyester mudwall offers additional protection against the elements.
Designed for Repeated Seasonal Use
Unlike lightweight communal shelters designed for occasional use, the BCT Mess Tent has been developed for repeated deployment throughout demanding outdoor seasons. Reinforced saddles, double-sewn seams and a one-piece canvas construction help maximise durability, making it a dependable choice for organisations requiring long-term performance.
