As we are an umbrella specialist company, it may be easy to forget that there are many other products we sell. Rob McAlister Ltd was formed with a vision of providing people with innovative products which we believe would make everyday life that little bit easier. Although our wind-resistance technology remains a large part of our company’s success, we are proud to offer other low cost solutions to frequent and common problems. I thought I would give you an opportunity to find out a little about some of them!
The TidyTent is a lightweight storage solution, designed to be quick and easy to assemble. It is manufactured from a quality fabric which is tough and durable, hard-wearing and easy to clean. The detachable zipped front panel provides you with the choice of having the front open or closed – very useful in the summer months when rainfall is less likely and frequent access is required. Suitable for virtually any climate, the distinctive arched profile allows rain and snow simply to run off, keeping your contents safe and dry. It provides an impressive storage capacity, packs away to a small, compact bundle and comes including everything needed to secure it either freestanding, or to a wall or fence. The uses for this product are endless; store your wheeled barbecue sets, prams, pushchairs, lawnmowers, scooters, garden furniture, bedding plants, children’s garden toys, logs, bicycles – the list goes on! Available in green, or with a cream front panel.
The Culti Cave is almost identical in appearance to the TidyTent, however it forms a low cost and functional solution to a standard greenhouse. Ideal for those who take pleasure in growing their own fruits and vegetables, or large plants, the Culti Cave is easily-assembled and has many benefits. Unlike many other PVC grow houses on the market, our alternative is made from UV stable PVC, which will not perish and disintegrate rapidly like their cheaper rivals. It is significantly larger than most others (over 4 times more volume than the current market-leader!), and with enough space for up to 4 standard size grow bags, it enables tomatoes and larger plants to be grown with quick and easy access. It has a sewn-in groundsheet to prevent slugs, insects and other garden pests from getting in. This also allows a more humid growing atmosphere. There is a mesh panel in the groundsheet, which allows condensation drainage and spillages when watering. The front and rear removable panels can be either partially or wholly unzipped to provide the Culti Cave with quick access and easy ventilation on hot days. Another unique benefit to this product it that two or more units may be zipped together to extend the size, so that you can extend the tent to suit your own requirements.
Another simple, inexpensive solution from Rob McAlister Ltd. Following the same appearance of the above two products, the internal temperature of the tent has been measured as far higher than outside of it, making it perfect to dry laundry much faster than if left on a line or clothes horse. Once assembled, the dome offers an integral groundsheet, which protects and also helps maintain the high temperature. Finally, a solution perfect for air-drying whatever the weather. Go green, save money and buy yourself a Laundry Dome!
