Relief Blankets and Tents

Relief Blankets and Tents covers humanitarian and emergency supply items procured in bulk for distribution: thermal and fleece blankets, low thermal relief blankets, family and multi-purpose tents, tarpaulins and plastic sheeting, plastic buckets and jerrycans, sleeping mats, and the baling and packing that makes them shippable in volume.

Relief procurement is specification-driven and volume-driven in a way that ordinary commercial supply is not. An agency has to know exactly what it is distributing, repeat the order consistently across a response, and account for it afterwards, which makes stated material, weight, size and packing figures the core of the offer. Packed volume is frequently the binding constraint, because transport and warehousing can cost more than the items themselves, so compression and baling are part of the specification.

This category is procured almost entirely through tenders and framework agreements by disaster management and civil defence authorities, social welfare and relief departments, refugee and migration agencies, health ministries, military and paramilitary logistics branches for disaster response, non-governmental and faith-based relief organisations, and emergency response programmes financed by international agencies and development banks. We quote on volume against the specification and provide material specifications and test reports where required, sample approval, packed weight and volume, baling arrangements, make and origin declarations, delivery schedules by location and third-party pre-shipment inspection.

Send us your item specification, quantities and delivery locations, and we will quote on volume with packed volumes stated.
