- Pack Size: L64 x W21 x D21 cm
A tailgate-mounted, fixed awning designed for both camping trips and day trips away in the car, with updated fabric for 2024 incorporating recycled polyester. The purpose of the Sandcrest is to provide a small pack size, lightweight product you can store in the car, and quickly assemble to give some auxiliary space to the vehicle. Designed to fit vehicles between 155 - 185cm tall, such as the Peugeot Rifter, Citroen Berlingo, VW Caddy types of cars, and SUVs. With just one lightweight, aluminium pole, the Sandcrest is exceptionally quick to set up and set down. Additionally, the front door can be rolled up to create a large entry point, which can also just have an insect screen up to improve ventilation by leaving the door open with the mesh panel zipped.
Further to this, the design allows you to close the tailgate and lock your vehicle whilst it is attached to the vehicle, so you can leave it pitched and keep any valuables secure whilst on your outdoor excursions. Perfect for those with constricted space, as the Sandcrest has a small pack size, and a low weight of 4.8kg.

| Fabric Denier | 70 Denier (Polyester) Details Denier - a measurement used to determine the thickness of the tent flysheet. It relates to the fibre thickness, or thread counts used. The thicker the fabric, generally the stronger, and more durable the fabric will be. The denier really reflects the lifetime to be expected of the tent, and how quickly, it will be affected by UV Degradation. |

| Awning Type | Car / SUV Tailgate Details Seasonal: A caravan awning specifically designed for touring, and temporary camping pitches. Ideal for fair weather campers, needing an awning for shorter trips. Usually uses lighter fabrics, for easier portability, and easier pitching. Residential: Ideal for those camping for longer durations, wanting an awning that can be left pitched all season, or for a month or more at a time. Residential awnings usually use heavier weight fabrics, designed to last longer, and not fade as fast in the UV sunshine rays. DriveAway VW Awnings: Designed to go onto VW or similar vans, or motorhomes with the correct attachment height. Can be left free-standing at the site if you need your vehicle to get off-site. Fixed VW Awnings: Reliant on the van or motorhome for the structure of the product. Van cannot be removed offsite once the awning is set up. |

| Hydrostatic Head (mm) | 3000 Details Hydrostatic Head (Tents) – a waterproof rating for technical fabrics measured in mm. The higher the rating the more waterproof the fabric is. A rating of 1500mm is deemed waterproof, but on a tent, look for a rating of 3000 or higher. Measured by the height of water column a fabric weave can take before it begins to “sweat”. “Polycotton” tents will not have a Hydrostatic Head level, as they are not treated for waterproofing. |

| Flysheet Fabric | Outtex® 3000 Select, 100% polyester Details Polyester – a synthetic fibre, made from polymer units to create a textile fabric. Polyester is the most popular fabric for tent manufacturing, as it is durable, reliable and lighter in weight. Polyester does not breathe though, which creates more condensation. Polycotton - a blend of polyester and cotton, primarily cotton (usually around 65% cotton / 35% polyester split). Polycotton is a more natural fabric for camping, as it is breathable, far more durable material, reducing the effects of condensation. Offers greater versatility in hot and cold climates. Ripstop Nylon – a durable material used in tents which is strong and repairable due to its Ripstop properties. |
