The RV ManufacturingRevolution Is HereStructural insulated panels (SIPs) are revolutionising the way caravans and RVs are built. The ability to assemble pre-built, fully machined wall, floor and roof panels that are strong and lightweight is providing significant, positive benefits to manufacturers.

RV customers are increasingly demanding better built RVs. The weight of caravans and RVs is becoming a higher priority for consumers as the trend to tow with lighter vehicles continues, together with an increased focus on minimising expenditure on fuel over long trips.

To meet this demand, we've extended our range of leading composite panel solutions to include lightweight, high strength composite wall, roof and floor panels.

As a caravan or RV manufacturer, you'll appreciate how these revolutionary panels improve productivity, product design and performance. Key benefits of our unique complete panels include:

• Significant Labour Savings¥ No need for labour intensive wall building team

¥ Re-assign labour to higher value tasks

Build More Vans¥ A much more productive build process with pre-built walls,

floors and roofs

¥ More floor space for RV assembly by eliminating wall and roof building tables

Other Cost Savings¥ Reduce cost with potentially lighter weight chassis

¥ Reduce warranty costs with a structural, integrated shell

¥ Reduce material purchasing and storage requirements

¥ Reduce waste - no offcuts

More Flexible Design

Just in Time Production System Improving Your Efficiency

CNC Machined¥ Confidence of precise dimensions complete with profile,

openings and rebates

¥ Conveniently ready to assemble with all openings pre cut

Cabling Ready¥ Conduits or passageways for internal cabling can

be pre-installed

Bendable for Curved Applications¥ Easy to achieve the preferred radius
