Nemo Equipment: tents and sleeping mats for outdoor adventure

After studying industrial design, Cam Brensinger, an avid mountaineer, first worked for MIT on a NASA-funded spacesuit project for Mars exploration. In 2002, he founded NEMO Equipment, launching the first tent featuring the A.S.T. (AirSupported Technology™) concept, with a structure made of low-pressure inflatable poles. Resistant to strong winds, compact when packed, and quick to pitch, it quickly won over retailers, enthusiasts, and even the US Special Forces.

An expanded product range

After proving its innovation in tents with high-performance products full of ergonomic details, the NEMO Equipment design team turned to mattresses and sleeping bags. This led to the creation of a range of ultra-lightweight and compact self-inflating and inflatable mattresses.

Innovation and design

NEMO Equipment, a specialist in outdoor equipment, has already received numerous innovation and design awards. Each of its products-whether tents, mattresses, sleeping bags, or accessories-offers adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts the very best of NEMO Equipment technology and design.

Equipment for everyone

NEMO Equipment is interested in how we interact with our environment and how to adapt to all circumstances and weather conditions. Cam Brensinger says: "At NEMO Equipment, we believe everyone can have memorable adventures anywhere, whether in their own backyard or on top of Everest, as long as they have the will, imagination, and... the right gear."
