DIY Assembly of Composite Panels and Aluminum Angle for a Homebuilt Camper

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Boreas Composite Panels sells composite wall systems for DIY camper builders. Watch this video for an overview on setting up the panel wall system for a camper using aluminum angle and Sikaflex-255.
This exoskeleton style allows for flex when off roading while using a simple build process that creates a strong, water-proof shell.
The panel is an XPS foam core with a FRP woven mat skin which makes the material highly durable, well insulated and lightweight at approximately 1.6 lbs per square foot.
Remove wood from your home camper build to eliminate rot or warping.
Panels are available in sizes up to 13' long, and 60" tall with custom sizes as well. Panels are available in raw format or CNC-cut to your design.
Reach out today to learn more about how we can help you bring your camper to life with Boreas Composite Panels!

    Doesn’t the adhesive need a standoff of about a mm or so to allow the adhesive to flex and ensure there’s enough left in the joint?

    Adhesive is Sikaflex-255. Panels are XPS glassed with woven mat.

    I love your guys trailers and am happy you’re selling these panels now. I gotta ask though, if you had to panels each with a 45 miter and a 90, hey in the world would you choose the butt joint? I’m guessing the person that cut them for you is facepalming after watching the video.

    I was thinking the same thing. The mitered corner would place the rivets much further inboard from the edge of the fiberglass and give the Sika an actual surface to bond to rather than just being pressed onto foam (which has no strength).

    So quick rough math with pricing from your site puts a roughly 13’ x 5’ uncut panel over $1100.00?

    Concerned about de-lamination whether from when I cut out openings, corners, etc or just over time. What do you recommend to re-glue the frp to the foam and do you sell it?

    Curious here, are you saying that can be used as/or in place of a floor? Is it really that strong & has anyone ever seen/heard of this being used in a "House-Boat"? I'm looking into some things & this caught my eyes so I stopped in to see how good it is?

    Helpful, thanks. Will it be structurally strong enough to support the roof piece resting on the wall panels, or is a wood or metal frame needed to support it?

    I saw a video from Australia showing i think 15 people standing on the roof of a similar construction trailer. No frame required is why this construction is so awesome. I build mine with moulded rounded corner construction and no caps, still plenty strong but not for offroad. Great to see a company selling product for the DIY crowd.

    Yeah, I’d have just done a full length piece nice and strong and not visually abrasive. On all four corners, may add 5 lbs and $75.

    As efficient as these panels may be, you’d have the ugliest camper out there. Or can this be made with an inner skeleton and capped corners? Cannot make curves, I assume? How do you run wires?
