Built in ventilation
Nordic tipis are designed like a chimney, where fresh air enters at ground level, smoke and hot air exits in the top. All openings are mosquito-net fitted for keeping insects out.
Safirflex from Tentipi is one of the most innovative tents on the market. Building on a history of Scandinavian tipi designs the flex creates the perfect space not only for camping but for events, gatherings, outdoor learning and as a centerpiece of a group basecamp. Over the years we've supplied flex tents to schools, nurseries, outdoor learning centres and more - and are continually impressed with how this tent can adapt to a multitude of uses!

FAQs
Our frequently asked questions about the Tentipi Safirflex
What is the Tentipi SafirFlex 15 CP?
The Tentipi SafirFlex 15 CP is a large, flexible Nordic tipi-style shelter designed to work as both a weatherproof group tent and an open-sided communal space. Tentipi describes it as a 4-season tent suited to excursions, outdoor classrooms, group gathering spaces, and even smaller exhibition use.
Is the SafirFlex 15 CP a 4-season tent?
Yes. Tentipi presents the SafirFlex 15 CP as a true 4-season shelter, built to perform as a robust base tent while still allowing the walls to be raised for a more open setup in milder conditions. The design is intended to handle sun, rain, wind, and group use across the seasons.
How many people can the Tentipi SafirFlex 15 CP sleep?
The Safirflex 15 can sleep 15 people closely, while we recommend around 8 to 9 sleepers to leave more room for kit and socialising.
What makes the SafirFlex different from a standard group tent?
Its standout feature is the ability to raise sections of the walls, turning it from a fully enclosed shelter into a more open, panoramic space. That gives users the option of direct contact with their surroundings while still keeping overhead cover and weather protection.
How much covered space does the SafirFlex 15 CP offer when opened up?
With all walls raised, the SafirFlex 15 CP offers a 50 square metre covered area. That makes it useful not just for sleeping, but also for communal dining, outdoor learning, events, or sheltered gathering space in mixed weather.
Can the Tentipi SafirFlex 15 CP handle bad weather and wind?
Yes. One of the key selling points is its adaptability: when conditions are calm, the walls can be raised for airflow and views, but in strong winds the walls can be lowered again for much greater protection.
Does the SafirFlex 15 CP need an inner tent or floor?
Not necessarily, the breathable canvas construction means no inner tent is required for basic use. For extra comfort and protection, a Comfort Floor 15 can be added to help guard against insects and ground moisture
Can you use a stove or open fire inside the SafirFlex 15 CP?
Yes, the ability to have a fire or stove within the Safirflex is one of the tent’s major selling points. The tent can be used with both a stove and an open fire, and the size 15 Comfort Floor has openings that allow a fire pit to be placed directly on bare ground. There is also an integrated chimney opening for use with the brands range of Eldfell Stoves.
What is included with the Tentipi SafirFlex 15 CP?
The standard package includes features and accessories such as a double ventilator cap with net, three air intakes with net, a door with net, mosquito-net ceiling, central pole, storm cords, storm cord holders, two inside pockets, compression bag, and the poles/straps needed to raise two wall sections.
