LANCO has signed an agreement with the Bundeswehr (German Armed Forces) to supply the Einheitszelt type II legacy tent.

The Einheitszelt II (EHZ II), or multi-purpose tent (MPT II), are robust, only need a minimum of ground preparation, they adapt well to the terrain and the fabric is in accordance with military standards. Another benefit of these ranges of tents is that they are the perfect fit for long-term deployment in harsh environments.

The Einheitszelt II is designed to be versatile, durable and easily deployable. It is an essential part of military infrastructure, providing shelter for personnel and equipment during field operations. It will be equipped with modular rigid floors and packed in olive green metal racks thus increasing the deployment efficiency.

The modular design ensures flexibility based on the specific needs of the mission, and use in all climate zones. The basic unit consists of 3 sections, 6.30 x 7.40m, and it can be extended in 2.40m steps. The assembly doesn’t require any tools and it needs around 3-4 people. As far as the resistance to agents is concerned, the EHZ II can withstand winds of 120km/h and a snow load of 50 km/m².

The framework agreement that LANCO was recently awarded covers the supply of 200 Einheitszelt II tents.
