You won’t see all the innovationbuilt into every Lunar, but it willmake all the difference right at theheart of your holiday experience.Core ® defines something veryclose to our hearts – our passionfor lightweight technology and acompany philosophy that underlinesthe belief that everyone shouldexperience the joys of touring.Our innovation through Core ®integrates materials of a provenbackground with those of leadingedge quality. Our progressthrough lightweight technologyhas introduced a pioneeringthermoplastic material to the innerwall, creating an enhanced bodyshell that boasts superior properties;Weight – reduced by up to 55 kgMoisture resistant – reducedcondensationStrength – improved durabilityInsulation – improved insulationand Grade III complianceCore ® Innovation Tried and tested!The integration of Core ® technologywith existing and proven engineeringmethods provides the re-assuranceof reliability to our customers. Theadvancement in materials and theirapplication is a breakthrough forour range whilst also being highlyrecognised by leading brands withinthe automotive and marine sector.After meticulous selection everycomponent continues to be carefullydesigned, constructed and tested.With the use of two leading testingfacilities organised by AL-KO andTruma/Alde, we were able to put ourcaravans through extreme road andtemperature conditions.Core® Road TestOur Core ® body shell caravanendured a lifetime test of 30,000 km,via an automotive test facilityin Stuttgart, Germany. The testprogramme was split into two parts;Track run – A vehicle track cycleof 20,000 km incorporating all thedemands that a real life road oftoday imposes including Belgiumpave/cobbles, larger ‘moon crater’pot holes and repaired asphaltsurfaces.Rolling Road – A rolling roadsimulator aggressively modified tosubject heavy ‘Bump’ loads throughthe chassis and subsequent bodyshell.The intensive test programme,witnessed by vehicle engineeringspecialists at AL-KO, providedconclusive evidence of a very resilientproduct, reinforcing the fact thatour Core ® design has successfullyreduced weight whilst maintainingadvanced strength and durability.Core ® Climate TestIn one of the world’s largest climatechamber test facilities, owned byTruma/Alde, the Core ® body shellendured a sub-zero temperaturetest programme of 100 hours.Conclusions promoted the bodyshell’s superior material propertiesindicating an improved spread ofwarm air, elimination of coldspots/moisture and significantreduction in condensation.The testing then continued back inDerbyshire, UK, where our caravanfelt the temperature extremes ofone of the world’s largest climatechambers run by Truma/Alde.The results from the tests showedthat by using this honeycombthermoplastic material, our Lunarcaravans have a more even spreadof warm air inside and cold spotsminimised. With less coldspots present there will also beless moisture deposits on thewalls and windows, reducingthe occurrence of condensation.For us, perfecting our productswith Core ® ensures innovation andreliability, for you it simply ensuresa safer, more comfortable andenjoyable holiday.P4 Lightweight luxury at the heart of your holiday www.lunarcaravans.comP5
