About The Company

Get the ins and outs

KarTent was founded in the Netherlands and produces recyclable and innovative cardboard products for everyone. KarTent originates from the festival world, where the founders tried to make festival campsites more sustainable with cardboard tents after realising that 1 in 4 tents were left behind. If you have a customized product in mind, do not hesitate to contact them to describe your idea. Lastly, only ordered products get produced, eliminating unnecessary overproduction and storage.

“To offer a sustainable alternative to daily fun products: if our products ever get unnecessary, at least the material can be easily reused!”
