Why on earth not? Tube steel and canvas are incredibly inexpensive. The article is blatantly lying about the wholesale cost of traditional cots to make their pricing sound reasonable. At even modest bulk quantity, folding metal cots can be obtained on alibaba for $14/ea or less. At humanitarian scales, quite a lot less. https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/HOMFUL-Hot-Sale-600D-... https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Outdoor-Aluminium-Fol... The article doesn’t mention how long the cardboard beds are intended to last before being disposed or recycled. Between the cardboard bed and one of those I know which I’d prefer, and since cost is not actually a factor, I’m not sure what the advantage of the cardboard beds is. |
