Pop-up roof, caravan

A large-area pop-up roof — light, stiff and with a high-quality natural-fiber visible surface.

Weight
Starting point

A large-area pop-up roof needed to become lighter and stiffer — with a high-quality visible surface and good acoustics.

Requirements in detail

Our approach

A sandwich part with natural-fiber reinforcement and a light core, designed for stiffness at low weight; visible surface in a natural-fiber look.

Why natural-fibre composite works here

On large roof parts, bending stiffness decides, not tensile strength. A sandwich build-up separates these tasks: the light core holds the face layers apart and thereby delivers stiffness, while the natural-fibre face layers carry the loads. On top of that comes a property glass fibre does not offer — the fibre structure absorbs vibration and noise differently, which is immediately noticeable in the living area.
