    Concrete Canvas® Shelters (CCS) are rapidly deployable hardened shelters that require only water and air for construction. Essentially, it’s a building in a bag.

    WHAT ARE CC SHELTERS?

    CC Shelters (CCS) use inflation to create a surface that is optimized for compressive loading. This allows thin-walled concrete structures to be formed which are both robust and lightweight.

    CCS are constructed from Concrete Canvas CC13, bonded to the outer surface of a plastic inner. Once inflated, it which forms a Nissen-Hut shaped structure.

    CCS are deployed in four stages: delivery, inflation, hydration and setting.

    CC SHELTERS USER BENEFITS

    benefits icons Durable

    DURABLE

    CCS are far more durable than conventional, soft skinned tents. They have a design life of over 10 years.

    benefits icons Secure

    SECURE

    The hard shell and lockable doors of a CCS provide a level of security not possible with soft skinned structures, protecting stores, equipment and personnel.

    benefits icons Earth Berming

    EARTH BERMING

    The compressive structure of CCS has been modeled to be covered with sand or earth fill. This provides additional thermal mass and insulation, and an excellent level of thermal performance.

    benefits icons Rapid Construction

    RAPID CONSTRUCTION

    A 25m² CCS can be deployed by 2 people in less than 1 hour and is ready to use in 24 hours.

    CC SHELTER ADVANTAGES

    CCS have two major advantages over conventional tented shelters:

    OPERATIONAL

    CCS constitute a hardened structure from day one of an operation.
    They provide much better environmental protection, increased security and improved medical capability.

    FINANCIAL

    CCS have a design life of over 10 years, whereas tents wear out rapidly and must then be replaced.
    CCS’ are a one-stop solution, saving effort and cost over the lifetime of medium to long-term operations.

    PACKING

    CCS are supplied in polyethylene, airtight, waterproof, rot proof packaging within ISPM15 heat treated timber/ply panel crates.

    MODULARITY

    CCS structures are designed as part of a modular system; units can be docked together to create arrays of structures to suit operational requirements.

    REQUIREMENTS FOR DEPLOYMENT

    Both CCS variants can be deployed by 2 people. A CCS50 will require a vehicle or winch to aid with the unfolding of the shelter prior to inflation. Each shelter is provided with the ground pegs required for inflation.
