Durable Materials: Fabric & Coating

Durable Materials: Fabric & Coating

The Sibley Apex Series is manufactured from Tentex® TC30. The fabric is made from ring-spun yarn, woven in a very dense twill weave (duck woven) while remaining very comfortable in all weather conditions and throughout all seasons. Suitable for intensive / professional use.

  • Weight: 300 g/m² before coating, 360 g/m² after coating – ISO 3801
  • Composition: 95% cotton, 5% polyester
  • Tensile Warp: >98 daN – ISO 13934-1
  • Tensile strength Weft: >56 daN – ISO 13934-1
  • Tear strength Warp: >2.9 daN – ISO 13937-1
  • Tear strength Weft: >2.1 daN – ISO 13937-1
  • Yarn: Warp 30/2 – Weft 24/2

The Sibley Apex Series features a German-made, oil-based coating that makes it UV-resistant, fade-resistant, water-repellent, and resistant to mould and rot — all while preserving the fabric’s breathability. This invisible treatment is, without question, one of the most critical factors in your tent’s performance, giving the Sibley Apex the edge as arguably the most durable tent in its class worldwide. The protective coating is integrated into the fabric fibers before the tent is even produced, ensuring long-lasting protection from day one.

  • Water Column: 420 mm. – EN ISO 811 (200L /hr/m²) – 100% waterproof during a tropical storm.

The heavy-duty bathtub-style groundsheet rises some 12cm high and is made of durable 100% waterproof polyethylene for maximum comfort, and features rip-stop for strength. The tub-style groundsheet is virtually indestructible and allows camping on any surface. Even if your tent sits in 10 cm of water for months on end, you and your gear will stay perfectly dry. The groundsheet is attached to the tent with a heavy-duty zipper so that water and vermin have no chance.

We purchased the 1700 pro event tent for our daughter’s wedding. It was perfect. Breathe Bell Tents were amazing to deal with! Super fast delivery & ongoing support, nothing was a problem. 👌🏾

The waterproof bell tent is amazing!! Best quality with every aspect - the zippers have lasted years and will continue to for a long time. Larger inside than what it looks like outside. Can fit 8 single beds around for a sleep over. The bag allows for room so you don’t have to squash and fold it perfectly and squeeze it in hard. I lost the little waterproof cap for the front section so bought another for $10. Was delivered in 2 days. So writing this review now. Have had my tent for about 5 years now and LOVE IT!!

Unfortunately not happy with mine at all. My tent has been up for only 2 months and it’s completely mouldy. Something that was sold as a “4 season” tent I am very disappointed and now I will have to put it in the bin. Because it is getting worse every day. I’ve sent them an email and the reply was very overwhelming with the amount of chemicals I had to buy and to TRY to clean it and then apply a sealant (which I thought it should have been done by the manufacturer).

Bought a beautiful wee bell tent for my daughter for Christmas. It arrived in perfect time. Was super easy to erect, by myself on my lunch break. I had great fun decorating it with fairy lights, blankets and cushions. Filled it with Christmas gifts and we spent a glorious afternoon opening gifts and playing in the tent. I was impressed by how cool it stayed on a 43° day. We are very excited about setting it up by the sea next weekend for night fishing and mermaid retreat. Great for camping and as a cubby house in the back garden. This has brought such joy, it really was the best Christmas gift ever. Thank you so much, we love it.
