RV & Caravan
SKD FRP sandwich panels with multiple core options for RV and caravan construction
Overview
RV and caravan construction places unique demands on materials — panels need to insulate against outdoor temperature swings, stay lightweight enough to support fuel efficiency and towing capacity, and hold up to years of road vibration and weather exposure, all while keeping the interior comfortable and finished. Different parts of an RV call for different panel structures, which is why SKD offers a range of core options suited to each part of the build.
Structure
How the Structure Improves Panel Performance
- Insulates Where It’s Needed Most
- Balances Weight and Structural Support
- Withstands Years of Road Exposure

Why FRP Panels for RV & Caravan
Insulation Where It Matters Most
PU/XPS core options on walls and roof help maintain a comfortable interior temperature in varying outdoor conditions.
Lightweight Construction
Core options like PET and Honeycomb help minimize overall vehicle weight, supporting towing capacity and fuel efficiency.
Weather & Road-Ready Durability
The FRP gelcoat surface resists moisture, corrosion, and UV degradation across years of road exposure.
Design Flexibility Across the Build
From structural panels to decorative interior finishes, FRP products support every part of the RV construction process.

FAQ
A: Each part of an RV has different priorities — walls and roofs need insulation to manage temperature, floors need load-bearing strength and weight efficiency, and furniture needs rigidity without adding excess weight. Matching the core material to each component’s priority delivers better overall performance than using one core type throughout.
A: Yes. Panel thickness is made to order, and width is sized to standard container dimensions for shipping. Contact our team to discuss specifications for your RV production line.
A: Both. FRP panels, along with plywood and honeycomb core options, are commonly used in RV furniture construction — such as cabinets, tables, and storage units — in addition to structural wall and floor panels.
