Plastic molded parts for campers and campervans

Campervans are often customized to suit individual needs, which is why flexible design options are important. Deep-drawn plastic parts can be adapted in a wide variety of shapes, colors, and surface structures, enabling a modern, functional design. Whether smooth, matte, or textured surfaces—plastic can be processed in such a way that it blends harmoniously into the overall look of the interior. Plastic offers a wide range of options, particularly for interior trim, furniture surfaces, and storage elements. Exterior components such as wheel arches, bumpers, and roof hoods also benefit from the flexibility of the material. In addition, the thermoforming manufacturing process enables the cost-efficient production of customized parts that are precisely tailored to the needs and requirements of campervan owners. This allows both functional and aesthetic requirements to be optimally implemented.

Campervans are exposed to a wide range of weather conditions – from strong sunlight to rain and frost. Plastic parts are extremely resistant to these environmental influences and remain in good condition even after years of use. High-quality plastics such as ABS or polycarbonate are UV-resistant, which prevents fading or embrittlement. They are also resistant to moisture, mold growth, and temperature fluctuations, which is particularly advantageous in areas such as wet rooms, exterior cladding, or roof hatches. Plastic parts can also absorb mechanical stresses such as impacts or scratches better than many other materials. This durability ensures that campervans with plastic components remain in good condition for longer and require fewer repairs or replacements. Its high resistance to external influences makes plastic an ideal material for all important components of a campervan.

Hygiene is particularly important in the compact interior of a campervan. Plastic parts offer a decisive advantage here: they are easy to care for and clean. Thanks to their smooth, non-porous surfaces, dirt, dust, and grease adhere less strongly than to other materials such as wood or fabric. Regular cleaning with a mild detergent is usually sufficient to keep plastic surfaces clean and hygienic. In addition, many plastics are resistant to moisture, which means they do not swell or deform – a problem that often occurs with wood. Plastic components are also ideal in the kitchen or bathroom, where water and steam play a role. Special coatings or anti-fingerprint surfaces can even minimize fingerprints and scratches. Easy maintenance helps keep the campervan looking new and well-cared for longer.

Sustainability is an increasingly important issue in vehicle manufacturing—including for campervans. Modern plastic parts are often made from recyclable materials, which conserves resources. Thermoplastics such as ABS and polypropylene in particular can be remelted and reprocessed at the end of their life cycle. Some manufacturers also use bio-based plastics, which are made from renewable raw materials and represent a more environmentally friendly alternative. Another sustainability aspect is the durability of plastic components: since they are robust and weather-resistant, they need to be replaced less often, which generates less waste. In addition, lightweight plastic parts help to reduce the overall weight of a campervan, which lowers fuel consumption and thus CO₂ emissions. These factors make plastic components a sustainable solution for durable and environmentally conscious campervan conversions.

Campervan parts and campervan components from swissplast have been in great demand in the plastics and automotive industries for many years. The advantages of campervan components made of plastic are obvious: they are inexpensive, can be produced in large numbers and quickly, and have better properties than the respective molded metal parts. Molded plastic parts for campervans are lightweight and at the same time impact and tear resistant. Our camper parts are also highly UV and weather resistant, which gives them a long service life.

swissplast equips manufacturers of campervans and campers with its deep-drawn parts. For example, we produce camper cladding, camper cladding, camper exterior cladding, camper interior cladding, camper interior cladding, camper door cladding and camper wall cladding. We rely on high-quality materials and raw materials in order to be able to present you with an excellent product. Our plastic camper parts are lightweight and can be designed to meet your requirements.

Special components for campers made of plastic include washbasins for campers, camper wet cells and camper shower trays. These are designed to fit precisely and according to your wishes and can optionally be refined by CNC milling after the thermoforming process or combined with other composite materials through assembly production. This means that there are virtually no limits to your campervan production, as we can manufacture virtually any deep-drawn parts for campers you require for your project.
