What is Alu-Tech?

Alu-Tech is a new approach to bodyshell construction. Using a unique interlocking aluminium framework to clamp the body panels together, Bailey created a shell that was so much more robust and durable than anything else.

Greater protection against the elements comes from a significant reduction in the number of external joints and fixing points, along with using timber-free components in the upper bodyshell panels. 

Thicker, better-insulated panels, cloaked in impact resistant GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic), hugely improve the thermal performance of the bodyshell, for genuine four-season performance. All this, with no increase in weight or cost.

Thermal Performance

All caravans and motorhomes built using our Alu-Tech construction system have achieved the highest classification of thermal insulation (Grade III for EN1645-I & EN1646-I) to keep you warm in winter and cool in summer.

Structural Integrity

Starting with an interlocking aluminium framework that cuts the number of external joints and fixing points by 90%, every conceivable effort has been made to reduce the number of potential water access points and thus improve the overall integrity of the protective shell.

While the replacement of the timber elements in the side and roof panels with a composite plastic internal skeleton and interior and exterior GRP wall linings enhances the longevity of the vehicle.

The sole use of fully laminated body shell panels, in conjunction not only improves thermal performance but also enhances strength and durability of the overall structure to make our caravans and motorhomes.
