Why use (purchase) the Duralite® Modular System

The Duralite® system is a purpose-designed lightweight fitout system custom designed for RV interiors installed in Motorhomes, Caravans, Campervans, Equine horse floats, 5th wheelers and Slide-on campers for over 17 years.

The Duralite® system has been installed and used in Motorhome and Campervan rental fleets for over 10 years, proving to be very resistant to extreme wear and use in very demanding circumstances.

Differences? What makes the Duralite® system unique

A combination of a very light composite panel and a unique connection system, extruded mouldings and use of hardware designed for use with lightweight composite panels.

The Duralite® composite panel

Manufactured for Duralite® Modular Systems in Australia with a range of surface finishes. Bonded with structural urethane glue, 3mm finished surface ply with a very high density (VHD) fire retardant foam centre.

Composite construction

Two equal layers glued to a centre core of Fire retardant (AS1366) VHD polystyrene provides a well-recognised strength, keeping panels large and small rigid and straight.

The Duralite mouldings

The composite construction of the lightweight panels does require a unique method of connection in order to benefit fully from these lightweight panels.

The Duralite® system provides unique mouldings which have both a channel and fixing flanges in most instances. The combination of the channel using SMP Polymer Simson 703 glue and special screws provides panel edges with a continuous secure fixed edge giving consistent integrity along any join of panels to floor, walls, ceiling, or other parts of cabinetry construction.

Protects ends of panels from moisture penetration (vital areas being floor connections in RV vehicles).

Protects cabinetry edges from wear and damage over time.

The unique joining method using the Duralite® Modular System of mouldings of SMP Polymer Simson 703 glue in a channel and special screws provides a connection that is firm but inherently flexible in nature to resist both vibration stress over time (travelling on roads etc) and impact shock to the cabinetry and any internal structure, larger units, internal partitions i.e. shower/ toilet rooms.

Independently tested panel into moulding connection.
