Azdel and Impact Guard have introduced a three-layer composite roof for campers that can withstand loads exceeding 2,300 kg. The structure consists of an 8 mm Azdel RVX composite layer and Impact Guard fibreglass, bonded thermally without adhesive.

Tests show that standard OSB panels fail at 2,000 kg, while the new roof shows no visible deformation above 2,300 kg. Manufacturers are expected to offer it as an option or in premium packages.
