- load, on 26kg of bed
- QR
- on every bed, to report a problem and get it fixed
Three parts. No tools.
188 × 92 × 25cm. The canvas carries the load, so the bed only stands when it is pulled tight.
Recycled plastic legs
Two crossed X-legs pressed from about 20 kg of recycled HDPE.
Galvanised steel poles
Two poles thread through the canvas sleeves and the top holes of the legs.
Heavy-duty canvas
Pulled tight, the canvas is the structure. It washes, and it can be replaced.

The straight answers.
- The spec
- 188 × 92 × 25cm, 26kg, supports 200kg. Recycled HDPE X-trestle legs, two galvanised steel poles (26.9mm OD × 2.6mm wall, 1950mm length), heavy-duty Australian canvas. Assembles in ~5 minutes with no tools; the canvas is the structure.
- The price
- $750 for a single Stretch Bed. Each bed diverts 20kg of plastic from landfill.
- Lead time
- Beds are made in batches, not warehoused. We confirm your dispatch window when you order rather than promise a number we have not measured.
- Freight
- Freight is quoted by destination. Remote deliveries carry real freight costs and we say so up front; for bulk or community orders, contact us for a quote before you buy.
- How long it lasts
- Designed to last 10+ years in remote conditions. That is the design intent, not yet a field-proven number, and we will say so until it is.
- Who fixes it
- We do. Every bed carries a QR code: scan it to report an issue, and we arrange the repair or replacement and stay reachable by SMS. The canvas is washable and replaceable.
