Multimat outdoor collection product brochure

2013 outdoor collection

“For polar expeditions, the physical and mental make-up of the Greenland Dog has no equal.

Ancient Greenlanders suffered indescribable hardship but the living legacies these people left behind in Greenland today are the dogs: Greenlandic icons.

There are some people who still choose to live an isolated life of deprivation and simple needs. And there are some who choose to live a life of expeditions. I combine the two. I live in Greenland’s high Arctic where 280 days of the year temperatures are never above freezing.

I have no interest in following other peoples’ footsteps. My 22 dogs and I have enough to do on our own.

In my job I don’t often go home at night to a warm bed. Rest means a pit in the snow on sea ice that would not be warm or comfortable if it wasn’t for Multimat.”

“We were very impressed with the mats both for comfort and protection. We loved the fact they pack down so small and are very light - really important when space is so tight in kayaks.

We used them on a variety of surfaces; sand, concrete floors, long grass & light shingle.

We couldn’t believe how very insulated they keep you from cold surfaces when kipping down on hard floors and will be recommending Multimats to others.”

expedition The precise balance of weight reduction, compactness and warmth.

Designed and manufactured specifically for durability on unsupported expeditions.

Image courtesy of www.northpoleclassic.co.uk

Mats from the expedition range can be used alone or as part of an integrated sleep system (see pages 32-33).

Multimat was the first choice for The North Pole Classic Expedition 2006 in their successful unsupported ski from Ward Hunt Island (Canada’s northern most land point at 83˚ north to the North Pole). They chose self inflating and foam sleeping mats from our Expedition range. Image shows Conrad Dickinson, battling freezing temperatures of -60˚C, with no outside assistance and without any re-supply.

Describing Multimat they say “Weight for thermal insulation their products are terrific.

With over 20 years experience their technical knowhow is tried and tested.”

advance camp Custom made for the extreme conditions of Base Camp to give the ultimate in warmth and comfort, ensuring you are fully rested.

Manufactured to focus on the specific requirements of supported expeditions, for those who require maximum comfort and durability without the concern of weight reduction.

“ High altitude mountaineering is one of the harshest challenges known to man.

The equipment used must be of the very highest quality to survive both the weather conditions and ill treatment experienced over many weeks on expedition. Multimat meets these demands head on – lightweight for carriage but robust enough to deal with the everyday rigours of this extreme environment.”
