Traditional/Established Rigid Shelter | Tents used as emergency/transition shelters |
Less bulky, light construction, even when collapsed/packed;
Multiple units can fit into a vehicle instead of just one. Easily transportable. |
A more dignified emergency or transient housing option for displaced persons,
as well as for members of the following secondary consumer segments: The domestic (USA) urban homeless. Very poor families in underdeveloped regions of the world. |
Lightweight and man-portable; can be hauled for long distances using personal vehicles instead of commercial trucks and trailers. Instant, easy, snap assembly. Traditional rigid shelters have labor-intensive deployment and time-consuming setupd or assembly. |
Rigid construction, enabling it to: withstand wind forces better, provide occupants and contents with better protection against the elements, maintain improved indoor temperature control, and accommodate in-built features and amenities sush as furniture, electrical supply, and lighting. |
Greater adaptablility to various climates (hot or cold). | Long lasting. Tent fabric shelters have a limited use life due to degradation of the fabric and are susceptible to disintegration and rotting, while also having limited occupancy. |
Considerably less expensive to acquire, maintain, and transport. | Ease of deployment, by a single untrained individual. |
Not classified as a permanent structure, and is in fact easily movable - a feature that could help avoid opposition from countries that are reluctant to host refugee camps composed of relatively "immovable" shelter structures. | Design of the Magninsta shelter will offer a more "dignified" temporary abode for the homeless, in lieu of tents or boxes, whether makeshift or factory-built. |
