Case study – RAPID Tents Delivered in Record Time

Case study – RAPID Tents Delivered in Record Time

1. The Background

Military operations in conflict zones require robust and rapidly deployable shelter solutions to ensure operational readiness. These solutions must be delivered in a short period of time and ensure safety and efficiency.

2. The challenge

For this project, a supplier was needed to provide high-performance tents capable of enduring extreme cold and intense heat. The shelters needed to be delivered rapidly and fully equipped with essential accessories to ensure functionality and comfort. Specifically, the challenges included:

  • Providing tents that function optimally in extreme environments.
  • Ensuring rapid delivery of a large order (200 tents).
  • Supplying essential accessories to enhance functionality and comfort, such as LED lamps and flooring tiles.

3. The approach

LANCO, in collaboration with our partner BCB International, provided 200 RAPID 608 high-pressure inflatable tents for deployment in conflict zones. Engineered for durability and efficiency, these shelters are built to perform in all seasons, for both high and low temperatures.

BCB International, a trusted name in defence solutions, played a key role in ensuring the timely delivery of this mission-critical equipment.

4. The result

  • The successful delivery of 200 RAPID 608 tents in just two months highlights LANCO's ability to provide rapid deployment solutions at scale.
  • To enhance functionality and comfort, LANCO supplied essential accessories, including 1,600 high-efficiency LED lamps and 40,000 durable flooring tiles. Each tent is equipped with an entrance module, inner liner, sunroof, 21-watt LED lights, and flooring tiles, ensuring optimal usability in demanding environments.
  • By delivering high-performance shelters with comprehensive accessories, LANCO strengthens operational readiness and enhances safety in the field.
