Knaus
German solidity and finishing quality. They are young and dynamic, but they don't make decisions overnight. Knaus is familiar with many markets and offers a very attractive range of both integrated and semi-integrated campers. In recent years, their “Boxlife” campervan series has enjoyed unprecedented success thanks to its unique mix of price, design and quality. A Knaus is certainly also known for its winter resistance!

Brand
Knaus is a rock-solid German manufacturer of caravans and motorhomes. Over the years, the emphasis changed from caravans to motorhomes, to today: being the undisputed number 1 on the German market. In Jandelsbrunn (in the south of Germany near the Austrian border) there is an up-to-date production facility that produces one of the most reliable and solid motorhomes on the European market.
Philosophy
At Knaus everything revolves around reliability and solidity... you have your Knaus for life, if you want it of course. But Knaus takes the next step by linking these very traditional values with their will for innovation and renewal. Not an easy task, but if you look at a Knaus up close, you will see that they succeed wonderfully.
History
When Helmut Knaus founded his caravan company in 1960, he mainly wanted to do his own thing, based on his feelings and far from the paths taken by other caravan builders. He called his first caravan, in the shape of an egg, the “swallow's nest” and won 3x gold at the “International Automobile Tournament” in Bad Nauennahr! In no time, the initial factory was too small and he left his native Heilbronn to lay the foundation of today's Knaus in the Bavarian forest. From 100 “Swallow's Nests” in 1961, a generation later they built 20,000 motorhomes and caravans on 3 different production sites (Jandelsbrunn (D) – Motgers (D) – Nagyoroszi (H))
