At Caravan Salon Düsseldorf, Europe’s leading trade fair for the caravanning industry, GREENLANDER draws attention with the premiere of the series version of its Sherpa expedition vehicle – a product that unites two key industry trends.
- Innovation in sustainable lightweight construction
The Sherpa is the first expedition cabin in series production made from natural fiber
composites. Flax, recycled PET cores, and cork replace conventional fiberglass and
foams. The result: a cabin that requires less energy to produce, is significantly lighter,
Seite 4/ 6integrates larger water and energy capacities into its frame, and thus offers greater
autonomy – without requiring a larger vehicle footprint. At the same time, this
approach addresses major industry challenges such as emissions, end-of-life
disposal, and circularity.
- A vehicle for world travelers
The Sherpa is aimed at a growing market: customers who want to reach the most
remote corners of the world with maximum autonomy – without the limitations of
heavy-duty trucks. It combines the tank and energy capacity of large expedition
vehicles with the agility and accessibility of a compact 4×4. The result is a vehicle
that can go anywhere and provides the comfort of a real home along the way.
Strong demand confirms the concept
Since the launch edition was unveiled in 2024, GREENLANDER has experienced
extraordinary demand. Within just six months, the first series was sold out – a clear
signal of the concept’s strength in a market that has proven resilient despite
economic fluctuations.
A material revolution on broad display
GREENLANDER is not alone with this innovation:
- EXPLORER Magazine is presenting a DIY vehicle in the “Adventure
Self-Build” section, built from the same natural fiber sandwich panels
developed by GREENLANDER and its parent company Circular Structures.
- In Hall 6, Dethleffs is showcasing the concept vehicle e.home E.CO, also
based on these materials.
Together, these three showcases demonstrate that a true material revolution has
begun – spanning series production, self-builds, and industrial concepts.
The GREENLANDER Value Proposition
The GREENLANDER Sherpa defines a new category in the caravan market:
- Autonomy of a heavy expedition truck in the weight and footprint of a
compact 4×4.

Extended range, larger tanks, longer independence – without
compromises on size or access.
Sustainable lightweight design, requiring less production energy, using
renewable and recycled inputs, and easier to recycle at end-of-life.
Access instead of restriction: reaching roads, passes, and places where
larger trucks cannot go.
A home, not a box: warm, quiet, and premium interiors that stand apart.
Future-proof: developed in line with emissions and circular economy
principles – factors increasingly relevant to customers.
Caravan Salon Düsseldorf – Hall 16, Stand A74
Visitors to the show will have the chance to see the series version of the Sherpa on
Iveco Daily 4×4 for the first time. At the same time, GREENLANDER is launching
pre-orders for the Launch Edition on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4×4. This opens up
a much larger market, as the Sprinter is one of Europe’s most in-demand base
vehicles. Customers can now secure a place in this limited launch edition, with
deliveries scheduled from 2027 onwards.
Both models make clear that sustainable lightweight construction and
uncompromising travel capability can go hand in hand.
