Materials

We source the best quality materials and components for each Henkipod. The shell is a single piece of fibreglass that is custom made using our own special moulds. We use birch plywood and other specific lightweight materials for all the cabinetry and installation inside your Henkipod. Every component of the Henkipod has been researched and it has taken a lot of time and development to source the correct parts in terms of fitting and quality.
