October 17, 2019
The new line provides a refresh and upgrade to its entire product range, as well as debuts three key pieces for 2020
LONDON (October 17, 2019) – Tentsile, the leaders in elevated and portable Tree Tents and hammocks, is thrilled to announce the launch of its Generation 3 line of products to consumers and retailers in Spring 2020. The new Gen 3 line provides a refresh and upgrade to its entire product range, as well as debuts three key pieces for 2020, all the while adhering to its core principle of protecting the world’s forests.
“We are always looking to push the boundaries of where and how our products can be used, enhancing usability and refining the designs to constantly improve them,” said Alex Shirley-Smith, Founder and Chief Product Development Officer of Tentsile. “The features and updates found in Generation 3 create an even better user experience, more comfortable habitable spaces to sleep in and new features to make life even easier when you’re camping.”
The key highlights from Tentsile’s Gen 3 line for 2020 are the Safari Vista Tree Tent, the Safari Trillium Hammock, the Ground Conversion Kit and the Leave No Trace Tree Protectors will also come standard.
The Safari Vista Tree Tent
The Safari Vista Tree Tent debuts a revolutionary transformation from the original Vista design and now makes this model Tentsile’s biggest Tree Tent. The larger rainfly, stronger poles and double-stitched, heavy-duty, ripstop 450D Dacron floor offers increased protection from the elements and additional living space in all four seasons.
The Safari Vista is the perfect hangout for all given this model’s unique domed design that offers unbeatable headroom and easily converts from a Tree Tent to a giant hammock that sleeps three adults or a small family. The 100% waterproof, UV-resistant rainfly, easy-to-assemble pole configuration, and tear resistant no-see-um insect mesh can all be removed for an open 360-degree view view—ideal for the backyard or the park.
- Set Up Size: 13.5 x 13.5 x 13.5’ // Weight: 39.7 lbs // Floor Area: 78 sqf
- Max Load: 880 lbs
- MSRP: $999
Safari Trillium Hammock
The largest and most robust hammock on the market, the Safari Trillium Hammock was designed with the same space and storage capacity as Tentsile’s award-winning Trillium hammock, but made from the highest quality, toughest and most durable double-stitched ripstop 450D Dacron floor fabric and UV-resistant material. This model can be left up for months at a time, and with care, can last up to five years in the harshest conditions – Tenstile is so confident in the durability of the Safari range that these products come with a 5 year warranty. Perfect for more permanent camps or backyard set-ups, this hammock is made to withstand extreme climates and a high volume of occupant turnover and use.

Ground Conversion Kit
No trees? No problem. Perhaps the most revolutionary update to the 2020 Tentsile range is that Tentsile’s Generation 3 Tree Tents are optimized to be used with the all-new Ground Conversion Kits. You can camp with more freedom than ever before. Kit includes: Heavy duty 100% polyethylene footprint that conforms perfectly to the footprint of the Tree Tent, 3 x extendable, aluminium poles 6 x low-impact, screw pegs 3 x reflective guy lines.
“We’re confident that customers will love the new features of Generation 3, as their interconnective modular system means you can use your creativity to have fun combining tents, hammocks and accessories to suit all of your needs – creating multilevel camps for any number of people and unlike anything else on the market,” continued Shirley-Smith.
Zero footprint, felt tree protector wraps now come standard with every Tree Tent and Hammock so you can elevate your adventure without the potential to damage bark on more delicate tree species. In addition, all Tentsile rainflies have been upgraded to 5000HH (and the Safari models to 8000HH); zippable, internal storage pockets have been added to keep gear secure; new detachable, underfloor storage nets for increased interior living space and comfort. All the top, key features customers have come to expect from a Tentsile Tree Tent will still be a part of Gen 3 such as, fully insect- proof, anti-roll-under floor strap system, multiple entry points and porches and of course, stackability.
The full Gen 3 range will launch online in January 2020 and in retail stores in March 2020. For more information about the new range and testing, contact Katie Wolitarsky at katie@whitecloudcommunication.com and to learn more about Tentsile, visit www.tentsile.com.
