An article was released today about an RV company, Evergreen, beginning to use composite materials to make RV's more eco-friendly. Sounds interesting right?
These RV's are much lighter than other RV's and also use less gas. People might be hesitate to trust these "lighter" RV's but trust me, they are just as durable, tough, and weather resistant as the normal models we have all grown to love.
Ever-lite is the model name of these new RV's and are made out of composite materials named ComposiTek. This material is made by “vacuum laminat[ing] it onto a structural frame of double-welded aluminum”. This allows the RV to be sealed completely from floor to ceiling. The lab also found the ComposiTek to be “four times the strength of wood products.” That's pretty strong!
It's great to see technology being used to create alternatives for cars, trucks, and now RV's. It shows what a little perseverance and creativity can do for you. GasWatch is looking at ways to create more environmentally friendly BBQ products with the introduction of Antimicrobial Tools. These tools will be infused with silver which is nature's most pure antimicrobial agent. Stay posted as we will include updates of these products in the next few weeks!
