Lightweight Camper Trailers & The Pod Trailer

Lightweight Pod trailers are a type of camper trailer that are designed to be lightweight, compact, and easy to tow. They are typically smaller than traditional camper trailers, making them easier to store and transport.

Some common features of lightweight pod trailers include:

  • Compact size
    Lightweight Pod trailers are typically smaller than traditional camper trailers, making them easier to store and transport.
  • Lightweight construction
    Lightweight Pod trailers are typically made with lightweight materials, such as aluminum and low density polyethelene plastics, which helps keep the overall weight of the trailer low.
  • Simple setup
    Lightweight Pod trailers are often designed for quick and easy setup, making them ideal for spontaneous trips or for those who don't want to spend a lot of time setting up camp.
  • Basic amenities
    While lightweight Pod trailers are typically smaller and less equipped than traditional camper trailers, they still offer basic amenities such as a roof top tent, kitchenette, and storage space.
  • Versatility
    Lightweight Pod trailers are often designed to be used in a variety of settings, from camping and road trips to festivals and picnics.

How are Pod Trailers Made?

The Active Pod trailer brings its users all the associated benefits above and uses a modern method of manufacturing to produce an extremely durable and robust product. All trailer tubs are produced using rotational moulding, the process involved using a low-density polyethylene powder which is poured into a mould and placed in an oven and spun on a multi axis at a specific speed.

Type of vehicles the Pod trailer suits

The Active Pod is a fully sealed enclosure, keeping all your content safe from dirt and water, with over 1900L of secure and lockable storage this gives vehicles a large amount of storage options to haul your camping equipment to expensive products. Weighing in from 320Kg (Utility model) vehicles such as Subaru Forrester can tow up to 1800kg, so vehicles owners need to be mindful of how heavy the trailer is and its available payload. We are also seeing the Active Pod trailers heavily adapted by the 4x4 enthusiast who may have a heavy haulers like a Land Rover Discovery and need a lightweight camper trailer to get around on heavy 4x4 tracks or go beach camping.
