The world’s largest caravan built with interlocking plastic LEGO bricks has been unveiled at the Motorhome & Caravan Show 2015 to celebrate 130 years of leisure caravanning this year. The LEGO brick caravan was certified the world’s largest by an official Guinness World Records.
Built by a team of 12 LEGO Certified Professional Builders over more than 1,000 man hours, the 2.2m tall and 3.6m long model caravan features a full interior with working electric lights, sink with running water, fridge, simulated cooking facilities, a bed and seating – just like the real thing. It’s been decked out with plenty of items made of LEGO bricks that you’d find in a real caravan, including chess set, toothbrushes, frying pan, and even milk in the fridge!
The model is based on the ‘teardrop’ style caravan T@B.

British based Titan Leisure Products are yet again set to lead the way in the M1 pull tested seat bed system industry, with their new mid-mounted seat bed. ‘This is a very exciting design for us with many unique features,’ say Malcolm and Mark Evans, Directors of Titan Leisure Products, and founders of the Titan Bed range. Titan are now going to offer a new mid-mounted seat bed system, with important and unique elements to the design such as:

UNIQUE 12 recline positions for maximum seat comfort

UNIQUE 5 back rest settings when in bed position

UNIQUE – Detachable from the vehicle floor to free up load space

It also has under bed storage for a portable toilet. And by being mid-mounted in the van, it ensures maximum luggage space to be available. ‘We have designed the seat bed to maximise living and storage space which is important to us all when using our vans,’ said Malcolm. ‘In seat position the whole system is shorter so not losing space, and we have maximised the headroom space in the vehicle as well.’ And of course, with this seat bed, just like the others in Titan’s range, it has been designed without the need for support legs in the bed position. This ensures floor coverings won’t be damaged, and storage space is again maximised. ‘We put a lot of thought into our designs, and whilst considering a new system, is very important that we listen to our customers, and implement their requirements into the Titan Bed as well, says Malcolm. ‘If we incorporate their needs, together with our own high standards of quality, comfort and above all safety then we can be sure we have something for everyone’.

XC Duo is a simple cooking and heating solution, designed for camper use.
In one unit a ceramic stove and an effective heater – running on diesel fuel.
Closing the lid, air starts blowing between the lid and the ceramic cooktop. The blower blows hot air from the cooker, transferring the heat into the cabin. When the lid is in the up position it is a great ceramic stove. The cooker has controllable power, which can be easily adjust from the control panel. The ceramic glass top is easy to clean, and the operation is quiet. The Wallas XC Duo, heater + cooker, is a unique solution for campers. This safe hob heater includes a modern ceramic cooker and an effective heat blower lid to warm the camper fast. The heat blower lid has a flat design profile and controllable heating power. Despite high power capacity, the upper surface of the lid is only warm to the touch. The diesel stove heater combination is an excellent solution for small campers. Unlike hazardous propane systems, it uses diesel from camper’s own diesel tank.
The combustion process takes place in a closed loop with the help of a combustion fan. The process is fully automatic and tolerant of the changes in air pressure. Combustion adds no moisture or odor to the living areas; no need to keep windows open.

Belfield Furnishings were offered to develop the latest Baileys Pegasus model, a partnership that has produced a unique patented design that has pushed forward innovation to provide improved comfort and ease of use for the Pegasus range. When Belfield were handed the design brief, the prototyping department started creating concepts. Conventional front end seating areas require “slab” style back rests, they are this shape to give the dual purpose of making the mattress. This is a common design that has been used for many years. The “slab” backs work fine as part of the mattress, yet limits options on foam used and back rest shape due to this dual purpose. The result of the Baileys and Belfield working in partnership resulted in a unique patented design that eliminates the need of the backrests in making the mattress. This allows the backrests to have any shape, and to be filled with softer fillings to provide a more comfortable domestic feel. The Dreamsleep bed make up system is a patented design that uses mattress inserts underneath the seat that are used solely for the mattress. Because they are used for this one purpose, they are upholstered in a fully breathable anti-allergenic fabric that is used in the domestic mattress market. The transition from seating to mattress is simple and quick, as the backrests are not needed. The underneath of the seat is also upholstered in the mattress material, with the underlying foam matching the inserts to make a full mattress surface. With the backrests not needed to from the mattress of the front end, they can be shaped in filled purely with comfort and aesthetics in mind. The rounded design of the backrests lends a softer look to the front end. Upon launch, the DreamSleep bedding system has received critical acclaim from trade and public, winning Practical Caravan magazine Innovation of the year. It has also received the highly commended innovation award from Caravan magazine.
