Wet inner tents are a thing of the past. Thanks to innovative technology, Simond has solved this common problem with their single-wall tent.
Users of lightweight single-wall tents are familiar with this problem: When the outside temperature drops and it gets warm inside the tent, condensation forms on the inner wall. Classic tents therefore use double-wall constructions, where the condensation ideally only forms on the outer shell. However, when weight and functionality are priorities, single-wall tents are the only option.
Innovative Condensless technology
To minimize condensation inside the inner tent, Simond presents its newly developed Condensless technology. It consists of a four-layer functional fabric that regulates moisture and minimizes condensation. The material structure combines a breathable, waterproof coating with a lightweight polyester fabric, an aluminum layer, and a water-repellent finish. The aluminum layer in the tent fabric has low emissivity, meaning it radiates less heat. This keeps the tent wall warmer, reducing condensation because the wall temperature remains above the dew point. This prevents condensation in 72% of cases. In comparison, a double-layer tent, such as the Simond MT900 2P, remains condensation-free only 7% of the time.
Low weight, easy to set up
Weighing only 1,550 g (including the bag), this tent is designed for experienced minimalist backpackers and mountain sports enthusiasts.
Its simple Y-shaped architecture ensures stability and space for two people and allows for quick and easy setup, which is a clear advantage in adverse mountain conditions.
The product also excels in sustainability. The reduced amount of material used in the single-wall construction and the high functionality of the durable, condenseless fabric reduce weight and material consumption, thereby lowering the ecological footprint.
What convinced the jury:
- Low weight at 1,550 g
- New Condensless technology for condensation reduction
- Less material consumption
- Y-shaped, stable architecture and quick setup
