Description
Sterling Continental 650 2017
Swift SMART HT is an advanced, fully timberless caravan construction system designed by Swift Group for premium ranges (e.g., Elegance, Continental) to eliminate water ingress and increase durability. It utilizes a moisture-proof polyurethane (PURe) framework, GRP-skinned sandwich panels, and bonded joints to create a strong, durable, and aerodynamic body shell, often supported by a 10-year warranty.
Key Features of SMART HT Construction:
- Timberless Framework (PURe): Instead of wood, a tough, waterproof polyurethane-based material is used, preventing rot and water ingress.
- GRP Balanced Panels: Roof, side walls, and rear panels are fully covered with Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), providing enhanced, hail-resistant protection.
- Advanced Bonding & Joints: Panels are assembled using adhesives rather than screws, and joints are locked together with injection-molded technology for superior strength and rigidity, reducing cold spots.
- Aerodynamic & Flush Design: Features a more aerodynamic body shape (reduced drag by ~18%), flush-fit windows, and a streamlined awning channel, improving fuel efficiency.
- Construction Method: The 44mm “sandwich” floor incorporates a Styrofoam core, ply upper, and GRP outer skin for durability.
Benefits:
- Extremely Water Resistant: Timberless construction eliminates the primary cause of damp,, significantly enhancing longevity.
- Structural Integrity: Designed to be stronger and more robust, confirmed through intensive testing at Millbrook Proving Ground.
- Improved Insulation: The materials and design offer better thermal performance, making them suitable for year-round use.
