HEIMPLANET
The tent supplier for Trolltunga Adventures
The journey of HEIMPLANET began with the idea of a revolutionary tent concept during a surf trip in Portugal. In 2011 the first inflatable tent THE CAVE was launched. Since then, HEIMPLANET has presented a whole range of innovative products. Altogether these products represent a new approach towards the outdoors. Innovative technologies and materials combined with a unique design language form a concept that could be described as – Modern Outdoors.

The vision of an innovative tent design was born in 2003 by the two founders Stefan Clauss and Stefan Schulze Dieckhoff during a joint surf trip along the Portuguese coastline. At that time, based on their own experiences, the idea of developing a tent with a unique, functional design to create a whole new camping experience was born for the first time. A flexible home, which is easy to set up and reliable in all weather conditions, leaving more time to enjoy the real travel experience.
Inspired by the architect, designer and futurist Buckminster Fuller and his findings in the field of geodesic domes, the founders introduced the first HEIMPLANET tent THE CAVE in 2011. The geodesic construction with the inflatable IDG technology (Inflatable Diamond Grid) distributes external forces optimally over the entire structure and offers the greatest possible volume in the smallest possible space. Setting up the tents is intuitive and follows a simple principle: roll out, inflate - done! Set up in less than a minute.
After the successful launch of the first tent, the two founders quickly realized: HEIMPLANET is not just a tent company. Thus, in 2012 they launched their first luggage system specialized for the requirements of the modern explorer. Now HEIMPLANET offers four carry lines with functional backpacks & bags as well as functional apparel and gear.

All HEIMPLANET products are built to withstand the harsh test of time. Only durable materials that are crafted to ensure long-lasting performance even in the toughest environments are used. Based on the three factors of quality, functionality and design, HEIMPLANET wants to create products that have the chance to represent a real meaning and benefit the consumer. Daily companions that reflect true passion, originality and quality, thus driving an ever-increasing counter-trend to fast fashion, where the product itself is becoming less and less important. This is why all HEIMPLANET products reflect the claim to attract attention with well thought-out design and to become part of its environment with highly developed function. Whether in the most remote place in the world or in the streets of the city.
By combining the best available technical features with high-quality materials and a clear, functional design aesthetic HEIMPLANET develops extremely versatile and durable products that are for every adventure. Wherever you go!

Sustainability is more than just a trend for HEIMPLANET. From the very start of the company the founders knew that there are not many industries where people are so aware of the importance of nature. This is why they believe the outdoor industry can be an important driver to solve the problems we are facing now. HEIMPLANET is not only improving their products constantly but also improving the materials they use - sometimes even by inventing new fabrics like DYECOSHELLTM. All products are developed and produced under the principle: using less but better fabrics. HEIMPLANET also strongly believes that the goal must be to extend the life cycle of products as far as possible and will continue to work on integrating it into their future developments. The company offers lifetime warranty, a repair service and the re-store program, which ensures that products remain in use for longer.
