OZTENT LAUNCHES AWARD-WINNING, TWO PERSON, SWAG
Announcement posted by The Oztent Group 11 Nov 2022
On Monday 14 November the Oztent Group will again make adventuring for two a better experience, with the release of its award-winning 2-person swag.
Acclaimed as a 'first of its kind' by the judges when it was awarded an international Good Design Award in September, the OZTENT RS-2 DOUBLE SWAG is the only two-person swag that can be set up and packed down in less than 30 seconds.
This is achieved by using Oztent's innovative 30-second frame.
Made of strong, high-quality aluminium, this frame is also very durable and stable. This means that not only will it be the first swag set up at any location, but it will also be the last one standing should the weather turn wild.
Another advantage of this frame is that it allows Oztent to create a swag large enough for two people to sit up in and move about easily.
Beyond its frame, its overall fabrication has been developed to endure the toughest conditions. Made from ModCan(TM) 300D ripstop polyester material, with a 350gsm heavy-duty, heat-sealed PVC tub floor, it is 100% waterproof with UV +50 protection. Both its ModCan(TM) material and mesh screens are certified CPAI-84 fire resistant.
The RS-2 is equipped with side ventilation, 65g No-See-Um mesh screens, and a large double entrance to deliver exceptional airflow to reduce heat inside the swag and minimise condensation.
A large, attached awning provides additional shelter from sun and is big enough for two people to sit under comfortably. This awning also provides a clean, dry entrance to the swag and protection for campers and gear in a downpour.
Additional features such as a zip seal power cord inlet, internal and external light loops, a 40mm double mattress, high-quality YKK zips, internal storage and attached storage pockets for guy ropes deliver everything two people need for comfortable and epic adventures.
Despite being so large on features, the OZTENT RS-2 has a small footprint (200cm x 155cm x 145cm - W x D x H), encouraging more people to get out and enjoy areas inaccessible with larger camping equipment and share their adventures with their partners and friends who prefer ease and comfort.
As the Good Design Awards judging panel pointed out, "This swag allows users to be closer to nature, connect with each other and the outdoors while minimising their impact on the environmental surrounds."
This is the third swag by the Oztent Group to be recognised with an international award for design and innovation.
The OZTENT RS-2 DOUBLE SWAG will retail for $1,199 and will be available through Anaconda stores nationally from Monday 14 November.

EDITORIAL NOTES
ABOUT The Oztent Group:
The Oztent Group was founded over 30 years ago by Australian inventor Joe Viglione who was so frustrated while putting up a conventional tent that he invented one that took just 30 seconds to pitch. Affectionately named 'the marriage saver' by Joe, the rest of Australia knows it as the OZTENT RV Range.
The Oztent Group remains an Australian-owned and operated company, providing Australian and international adventurers with a range of premium outdoor camping products, designed to create awesome camping experiences.
The Oztent Group has global operations through its USA base, with a network of longstanding and knowledgeable distributors servicing customers in multiple regions around the globe.
The Oztent Group holds numerous patents and accolades for the innovation and designs they have brought to market over the years. In 2021-22 alone it received six international design awards including the Gold Good Design Award, Red Dot and iF Design Award.
Brands owned by the Oztent Group include OZTENT and MALAMOO.
ABOUT THE ORIGINAL 30-SECOND TENT:
OZTENT RV is the original, patented 30-second tent. Using its 30-Second Fast Frame, a unique internal frame and hinge-mechanism, OZTENT tents eliminate the need, and time, required to thread poles to keep the tent up. Along with the innovative design, OZTENT tents also use heavy-duty, internationally certified, materials to withstand harsh Australian conditions.
The design profile of the OZTENT RV is so iconic that it is the only tent in the world protected by a Registered Shape Trademark.
