One of the most important things we’ve learned from working directly with European caravans is that the fitment approach has to adapt to how these vans are actually built.
On most UK-market caravans, we fit towing covers by sliding awning tape into an open awning channel on both sides of the caravan’s front face, a clean, secure, damage-free method. Many European caravans, however, only feature one open awning channel. This is common across Hobby and Fendt models and rules out the standard fitting method on the opposite side.
Rather than compromising on security, we developed a solution: awning tape in the open channel on one side, and 3M adhesive poppers on the other, surface-safe, secure, and designed specifically around the way these vans are constructed.
Some European brands differ again, Kabe caravans typically feature two open awning channels and can be fitted using the standard method on both sides. Every brand is assessed individually, and the fitting approach is always chosen to give the most secure and appropriate result for that specific van.
