About us
A Karachi tent maker in the Polani Group
Polani Tents manufactures and exports tents, tarpaulins and canvas goods from F-528 SITE Area, Karachi, Pakistan. We are part of the Polani Group, a family of Karachi manufacturers working in textiles, minerals and food since 2000.
What we do
We cut, stitch and pack tents for humanitarian agencies, defence buyers, importers and outdoor brands. Our range covers UNHCR-type family tents and other relief shelter, military frame and arctic tents, cotton canvas bell and safari tents, and canvas, PE and PVC tarpaulins.
Every order starts with the buyer's specification. We confirm fabrics, sizes and accessories line by line, make a pre-production sample, and welcome buyer and third-party inspection before shipment from Karachi Port or Port Qasim.
Textile experience across the Polani Group, from Polani Industries' towel and bathrobe weaving to Al Haseeb Apparels' garment making, gives us a skilled sewing workforce and close links to Pakistan's cotton canvas mills.

Cotton at source
Pakistan spins and weaves its own cotton, so canvas is sourced locally and lead times stay short.
Built to tender
We work to UNHCR, ICRC, IFRC and defence specifications, or to your own drawing and sample.
Port on the doorstep
Our Karachi base sits beside the country's two deep-sea ports, with regular sailings to the Gulf, Africa and Europe.
