At GlamXperience, our commitment to crafting luxury safari tents is deeply rooted in quality, safety, and environmental sustainability. Our approach to materials and construction reflects our dedication to providing unparalleled glamping experiences that align with the highest standards of durability and eco-consciousness.

Advanced Materials

For Superior Safety and Comfort

Our tents are constructed using Campshield fabric from TenCate Outdoor Fabrics, a testament to our commitment to safety and environmental responsibility. This innovative fabric combines the breathability of cotton with enhanced fire resistance, crucial for areas prone to bushfires. By avoiding cotton fibers, which require significant water resources, we reduce our environmental footprint and ensure that our tents are both safe and sustainable.

UV-resistant and Durable PVC Roofs

To withstand Australia’s harsh climate, including high UV radiation, our safari tents feature PVC roofs with an optional PVDF coating. This layer adds a self-cleaning property that extends the material’s lifespan and enhances its resistance to the elements, ensuring that the tents remain durable and maintenance-free for longer periods.

Eco-Friendly Foundations

With Mega-Anchors

Our unique mega-anchor system allows for installation on challenging terrains such as slopes and flood-prone areas. This innovative anchoring solution uses no concrete, significantly reducing the environmental impact and allowing for a reversible installation that leaves minimal trace on the landscape.

Sustainable FSC certified Timber

Sourced Responsibly

The wood used in our safari tents comes from FSC-certified forests, ensuring that it is sourced from responsibly managed areas. Our commitment to sustainability extends to the treatment of this timber with Tanalith-E, an eco-friendly preservative that prolongs the wood’s life without harming the environment.

Fused Bamboo

A Revolutionary Decking Alternative

In our continuous effort to innovate and improve, we offer an optional decking made from fused bamboo. This material not only provides superior strength and durability compared to traditional hardwood but also features a rapid renewal cycle, making it an excellent choice for eco-conscious construction.

Upcycled Interiors for a Unique Touch

The interior walls and furniture in some of our tents incorporate upcycled timber, blending sustainability with style. These materials are sourced from repurposed scaffolding planks, extending their lifecycle and reducing waste.

Low Carbon Footprint Across the Board

Every aspect of our material selection and construction processes is designed to minimize environmental impact. From the sourcing of sustainable fabrics and timbers to the use of advanced manufacturing techniques that reduce waste, our safari tents are a testament to our commitment to the planet.
