The biodegradable festival tent
Built for festivals. Designed to disappear. Our tents are made from kraft paper and plant-based PHA bioplastic — the same material as our umbrella, scaled up for the demands of multi-day outdoor events.
Four designs. Same promise.
Built for festivals. Designed to disappear. Our tents are made from kraft paper and plant-based PHA bioplastic — the same material as our umbrella, scaled up for the demands of multi-day outdoor events. Fully waterproof. Fully biodegradable.
Greenstart Shelter
Comfortable. Spacious. Durable.
The Shelter combines a familiar form with radical materials. A spacious interior and angular roofline provide structural strength and weather resistance. Designed for extended use across multiple environments.
- Lifespan: extended use
- Material: Kraft paper + PHA coating
- 100% biodegradable
Key features
100% Biodegradable
Breaks down under composting conditions after the festival — no collection, no landfill, and no plastic waste left behind.
Custom Branding
Your logo, colours, and message printed directly on the tent, turning every setup into a moving billboard.
Weather Resistant
Coated with a PHA bioplastic layer that repels rain and moisture throughout the entire event.
Pilot Program 2027
Currently being tested with two festival partners. Get in touch to explore collaboration opportunities.
Our materials, our principles
We work with two natural materials that already exist in abundance and return safely to nature — no fossil fuels, no microplastics, no permanent waste.
Kraft paper — strength from trees
The structural backbone of our products. Made from renewable wood pulp, kraft paper is surprisingly strong, lightweight, and biodegrades within months under composting conditions. We source from sustainably managed forests.
PHA bioplastic — the smart coating
What makes our products waterproof. Unlike conventional plastic made from oil, PHA is produced by bacteria and breaks down completely in soil and water — leaving no toxic residue behind.
Built to disappear
Most products are designed to last. Ours are designed to leave no trace. After use, they biodegrade in months under composting conditions, not centuries.

Questions about the tent
Our tent is designed for 2–14 days of use, with an ongoing development target of 12 months. It biodegrades under composting conditions after use — no plastic waste left behind.
It breaks down under composting conditions after the festival — no collection, no landfill, and no plastic waste left behind. The festival ends, the tent disappears — and the field is restored.
The tent is coated with a PHA bioplastic layer that repels rain and moisture throughout the entire event. PHA is produced by bacteria and breaks down completely in soil and water.
