Bailey Unicorn Product Development

To bring a product as advanced as the Unicorn to market it has been necessary to implement the most comprehensive test and validation programme ever undertaken for a new touring caravan.

Based at the Millbrook Proving Ground, the first choice facility of the global automotive industry, for over two years the Bailey development team has subjected their new range of caravans constructed with the Alu-Tech body shell to a series of accelerated life tests to enhance its structural durability and thermal capabilities.

Additional research carried out by The University of Bath, the leading independent authority in the field of towing dynamics, in to body shell strength and stability has ensured that every aspect of the design has been thoroughly evaluated.

The result is a caravan that is a triumph of engineering and technological advancement. A product that is so unique that it has necessitated the commissioning of over one hundred bespoke tools to build it, with a design so advanced that it has five new patents pending.

Bailey Unicorn Construction

The Alu-Tech body shell construction system is the most significant development in caravan production technology for over thirty years

Thicker body shell panels, featuring superior grade polystyrene, plus extra insulation to pipe runs and wheel boxes means the thermal properties of this vehicle are greatly enhanced. As a result Pegasus becomes the first UK caravan to achieve the Grade III Classification of Thermal Insulation for EN1645-I, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer, as well as making your caravan more economical to own.

Engineered to ensure it remains weatherproof and structurally sound the Alu-Tech body shell sets new standards in durability. A new design interlocking external framework helps reduce the number of external joints and fixing points by 90%, thus minimising the number of potential water access points and improving the overall integrity of the protective shell.

While timber free body shell panels, featuring a composite plastic internal skeleton and low absorbency buffer zones surrounding windows and doors, offer a second line of defence limiting the impact any possible ingress may cause.

So confident are Bailey of the performance of this new shell that it comes supplied with a market leading ten year integrity guarantee - thus providing you with additional piece of mind by protecting your investment.

Bailey Unicorn Light and Space

The first thing you will notice when you step inside this or any Alu-Tech construction caravan is the feeling of extra space.

This is achieved by increasing the internal headroom that is now, thanks to the flat panel roof construction, a market leading 1.96m (6ft 5in) throughout and combining it with the 2.28m (7'6") body width to create spacious interiors that are beautifully showcased by flush fit framed Polyvision windows, complete with pleated cassette blinds, and Heki II panoramic roof lights.

The space is then expertly managed to ensure storage capacity and accessibility is optimised in all areas of the caravan making Unicorn as practical as it is comfortable.
