Hilleberg the Tentmaker is a prestigious Swedish outdoor brand founded in 1971 by Bo Hilleberg, a professional forester. The company revolutionized the camping industry by introducing the first commercial tent with a linked inner and outer construction, allowing for simultaneous pitching. This innovation, combined with the pioneering use of high-tenacity Kerlon silicone-coated fabrics, established the brand as a leader in all-season and extreme expedition shelters.

While the company has a global presence, it remains a family-owned business headquartered in Östersund, Sweden. Manufacturing is highly centralized to ensure quality; the company operates its own dedicated manufacturing facility in Estonia, which opened in 1997. Additionally, the brand has expanded production for its larger 'Blue Label' group tents to Vietnam through a long-term partnership with DAC, utilizing a state-of-the-art specialized facility to maintain their rigorous standards.
