Vango

Vango – Trusted Camping & Outdoor Equipment Since 1966

Established in the West of Scotland in 1966, Vango has become one of the UK’s most respected outdoor brands, trusted by families, adventurers and mountaineers for reliable camping and expedition equipment. Still based in Port Glasgow, at the gateway to the Scottish Highlands, Vango continues to design gear inspired by real outdoor environments and changing conditions.

From comfortable family camping to lightweight wild camping and extreme mountain use, Vango products are built to help people enjoy the outdoors with confidence. Every tent, rucksack, sleeping bag and accessory is developed by genuine outdoor enthusiasts, combining practical experience with a strong focus on reliability, innovation, usability and quality.

From Campsite to Summit

Vango designs outdoor equipment for a wide range of adventures—from weekend campsite breaks and hiking trips to challenging expeditions in demanding environments. The range includes tents, sleeping bags, rucksacks, camping furniture and outdoor accessories built to perform across the UK and beyond.

Known for practical innovation, Vango has consistently pushed outdoor equipment design forward. The brand pioneered AirBeam® technology in 2011, transforming tent pitching with inflatable beam systems designed for faster setup and improved stability. This innovation later expanded into the AirAway™ and AirAwnings™ ranges for campervans, caravans and motorhomes.

Innovation & Sustainability

Alongside innovation, Vango has spent more than a decade improving sustainability across its products and services. The brand’s Spares and Repairs Service helps extend the life of outdoor equipment by refurbishing damaged gear and recycling components wherever possible.

Materials beyond repair are repurposed through recycling and upcycling initiatives, helping reduce landfill waste. This includes donating tent fabrics and sleeping bag fillings to Sheltersuit UK, where they are transformed into emergency shelter solutions for homeless communities.

Built on decades of outdoor experience, Vango continues to develop dependable equipment designed to support camping, hiking, travel and adventure at every level.
