Airxcel Highlights Products For Class B Vans at 2024 Showcase
InVision, Vixen, Velarium, and Coleman-Mach debut products for the Class B market
WICHITA, Kan., Oct. 23, 2024 – Building on the increasing popularity of Class B vans and smaller RVs, Airxcel featured a slate of products from its brands that are designed for Class B vehicles at this year’s 2024 OEM New Product Showcase. Anthony Wollschlager, President and CEO of Airxcel, said, “The Class B market is continuing to be a popular segment, particularly for new RV owners. We want our customers to have those same comforts of home while they’re out on the road.”
Coleman-Mach offered its 48V Rooftop A/C unit which is designed for Class B vans or compact travel trailers. The unit features a three-speed adjustable fan speed as well as a quiet mode for nighttime use. The sleek, low-profile ceiling assembly allows for spacious overhead comfort.
InVision debuted its 3.1 cu. ft. 12V refrigerator with 0.37 cu. ft. freezer. Designed for modern van life, it offers the ultimate cooling solution for Class B vans and small RVs. With five customizable temperature settings, a quiet night mode, and a boost mode for quick cooling, it’s the ideal addition to any mobile home. The unit’s design gives a sleek, integrated look for Class B van interiors.
Velarium announced a new 12V electric RV lateral arm box awning. It is designed for sun protection, user-friendliness, and durability. The awning features a lightweight, sleek case made from black powder-coated aluminum that shields the awning from the elements when retracted providing lasting protection and a contemporary appearance. Velarium offers three tiers of upgrades for box awning: Tier 1 includes LED lighting; Tier 2 features a wind sensor that automatically retracts the awning in strong winds to prevent damage with access to an online app for control on the go; and Tier 3 encompasses LED lighting, wind sensor, and app control. Ideal for the Class B market or on units without the head clearance required for a vertical arm awning.
Vixen Composites announced its new Vixenite™ PET Foam Core Composite Panel – the ultimate lightweight, durable, and moisture-resistant solution for Class B van sub-floors. This high-performance composite panel is designed to replace traditional wood substrates, offering superior strength and longevity in RV applications. The panel is engineered with a PET foam core sandwiched between multi-directional fiberglass mats and surface veil, all bonded with a premium thermoset plastic resin. Its one-piece construction can be precisely routed and cut, allowing for a seamless drop-in installation, eliminating the need for additional trimming or adjustments.
