2021-07-01 | Automotive design, EdgeOut Teardrop camper,
First-of-its-kind design for plastic teardrop off-road camper trailer!
What an exciting journey we’ve had! We at Retief Krige Industrial Design were part of an exclusive (ad)venture – the development of South Africa’s first, and feature-rich, plastic-moulded teardrop off-road caravan-like camping trailer!
This new design offers a totally new edge in the traditional off-road camping market. The use of high-specification plastic material, furthermore, allowed us to introduce innovative new features in the design of this moulded product, something which would not have been possible with the use of standard materials and construction methods.
The link that follows features an article by Leon Botha in the national “Weg Ry en Sleep” magazine – a publication dedicated towards towable camping gear – and was published in the June/July 2021 edition. Click here to read about the ground breaking EdgeOut camping trailer.
Congratulations all at rkid. This award could not have gone to a more deserving design house. I say this being an owner of an Edgeout teardrop. The layout and design is WORLD CLASS! I am an electrical technical guy and can appreciate brilliant design when I see it and (use it). 100% deserved. It’s clear this company has a bright future. All the best!!!
