The Western Shelter system was designed to provide an easily transported, simple to erect, and, most importantly, weather-secure working environment for operations in remote locations. From the arctic to the tropics, the proven reliability of the designs, material and construction has consistently exceeded customer expectations in the harshest of conditions. Performance under these critical conditions has brought the Western Shelter range to the attention of agencies and organisations in the fire, rescue, medical, military and disaster response fields.
Since 1992, Western Shelter Systems has been a primary supplier of emergency response shelters for FEMA, NDMS, USAR, DMAT, CDC, federal, state, and municipal fire and police jurisdictions; as well as forest service, military, hospital and industrial organisations. Western shelters systems can be found supporting government and private operations on every continent and in every corner of the globe.
