De Waard
De Waard tents have been found on European campsites for over 75 years. An iconic brand, not only because of its high quality, but also because of its striking and unique designs, the craftsmanship of these stunning canvas tents has earned De Waard the reputation of “A tent for life”. From their beginnings as sail makers for the Dutch Navy prior to World War One, the De Waard family name is now synonymous with quality, and De Waard has proudly positioned itself as one of the best canvas tent manufacturers in the world.
De Waard boasts numerous advantages over the competition, including control over the entire production process, allowing high-quality products to
be manufactured at extremely competitive prices. As well as this, the manufacturing capacity of De Waard is greatly enhanced due to its ownership group, Sunshine Leisure Brands (who operate five factories with 1,400 employees), allowing large orders to be fulfilled quickly.
Other unique selling points include:
- Largely handmade products by skilled craftsmen
- Factory locations across mainland Europe
- The ability to design and mass-produce custom products
- Working with canvas, as opposed to PVC, allows the structures to breathe and creates a superior living environment to rival products.
- Able to meet significant snow loads and insulation R-Values
Your Glamping Adventure
A De Waard Success Story in Tennessee
Our partnership with Matthew and the team at Your Glamping Adventure began at the 2022 Glamping Show USA. Impressed by the craftsmanship of De Waard, they secured four Oak units for their Smithville, Tennessee resort.
By the 2023 peak season, the Oaks were fully commissioned on bespoke decks, featuring private hot tubs, fire pits, and outdoor dining. Combined with the client’s signature rustic interiors, the result is a premier guest experience that blends rugged durability with home-like comfort.
