Product Description
The Shell-Shaped Tent is a one-of-a-kind permanent tent structure, inspired by the spiral form of a natural seashell. From above, it resembles a conch resting quietly by the sea, making it ideal for beachfront, lakeside, or forest-edge installations. With a spacious internal area of over 56 square meters and a soaring curved roof that reaches up to 5.2 meters, this glamping tent blends sculptural beauty with practical living comfort.
Whether you're a resort operator, eco-camp owner, or private landholder seeking a permanent glamping solution, this shell-shaped tent is designed to stand strong in nature while offering a luxury experience.
One of the highlights of this permanent glamping tent is the open and airy interior. With no internal pillars, the tent's interior is spacious and unobstructed. Curved side walls enhance the sense of space, and the 5.2-meter center height allows for natural ventilation and open views. With a total area of 56 square meters, the tent can be flexibly designed into a stylish studio-style glamping suite, a couple's retreat, or even a small family stay.
Partitions such as curtains, screens, or bookshelves can be added to divide different areas for privacy and visual hierarchy. There is plenty of space inside the tent to accommodate a large bed, comfortable lounge seating, and even a bathroom or kitchenette without feeling crowded.

This semi-permanent tent offers a comfortable living experience in any season. Thanks to the integrated insulation features and solid structure, it functions well as a year-round living solution. You can personalize the interior with various upgrades such as inner curtains, flooring systems with water or electric heating, air conditioning units, and even plumbing or sewage systems.
The color of the PVDF fabric, tent size, and internal layout are all customizable. You can also choose to install the tent on a wooden or concrete platform, depending on your location and project needs.
The Shell-Shaped Tent stands out not only for its aesthetic form but also for its robust construction and material performance, engineered specifically for long-term outdoor installation. This permanent glamping tent integrates structural integrity, thermal efficiency, and safety, making it ideal for year-round occupancy in a wide range of environments.
At the core of the structure lies a high-strength galvanized steel frame, which provides the skeleton of the tent. The steel tubes are hot-dip galvanized, a process that coats the steel in a protective zinc layer, preventing rust and corrosion even in humid, coastal, or rainy climates.
Material: Carbon steel with hot-dip galvanization
Wall Thickness: Up to 3mm, ensuring structural strength
Lifespan: Up to 20 years with minimal maintenance
Properties: High tensile strength, wind and seismic resistance, excellent load-bearing capacity
Performance: Capable of withstanding wind speeds up to 100 km/h; maintains structural integrity in mild earthquakes or unstable ground
This stable framework forms a fixed and semi-permanent tent base, suitable for installation on wood decks, concrete slabs, or elevated platforms.
The external surface of the shell tent is covered with a high-performance PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) membrane. This architectural-grade fabric is designed for extreme outdoor use, providing long-term protection from environmental elements.
Tear Resistance: Engineered to resist tension and punctures
Waterproof: Fully water-repellent and anti-wicking, ideal for wet climates
Fire Retardant: Certified to international standards, reducing risk of fire spread
UV Resistance: Blocks harmful UV rays and prevents material aging
Anti-Mildew: Coated to prevent fungal or mold growth
Color Stability: Custom colors available with long-lasting pigmentation
Maintenance: Smooth surface is easy to clean with mild detergent or water spray
Beneath the PVDF layer is a secondary PVC membrane that serves both aesthetic and functional roles. It forms the tent's internal ceiling and helps trap heat during cold seasons.
Insulating Layer: Together with the PVDF outer layer, forms an air gap for thermal insulation
Waterproof and Mold-Proof: Prevents internal moisture buildup
Flame-Retardant Surface: Adds another layer of fire safety
Color Customization: Available in neutral or themed interior tones
This double-layered membrane system allows the shell-shaped permanent tent to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature with minimal energy input.
The entrance of the tent is made of a full-height tempered insulating glass wall, combining strength, security, and environmental control.
Material: Double-pane tempered glass with vacuum or gas-filled insulation layer
Thermal Control: Reduces heat exchange and minimizes energy loss
One-Way Transparency: From the inside, occupants can view the outside, while external viewers see only a reflection, ensuring maximum privacy
Soundproofing: Minimizes outdoor noise, ideal for peaceful natural retreats
Safety Features: High impact resistance and shatter-proof treatment
The glass is also coated with a reflective metallic film that enhances energy efficiency by reflecting heat inwards during winter and outwards during summer.
Unlike typical camping tents, the installation of this permanent tent structure requires precision and professional handling. The steel frame must be carefully welded and assembled, often with the help of a crane. With four to six experienced workers, setup can typically be completed within two to three days. We provide a detailed pre-recorded assembly video, and our team is always available to provide remote support during installation.
The standard production time for a customized shell-shaped tent is approximately 45 to 60 days. Ocean freight generally requires another 30 to 45 days depending on your location. We support global shipping and work with reliable logistics partners to ensure safe and timely delivery.
This tent is not just a shelter; it's a permanent outdoor living solution that elevates your glamping experience. Its unique design draws attention and enhances your brand identity, especially for high-end resorts and eco-retreats. The structure is built to last, easy to maintain, and customizable to match your vision. It offers strong resistance to wind, rain, UV rays, and even seismic activity, making it one of the best permanent glamping tents available.
