Our journey
From the idea to the camper - Essential
It all started with a road trip and a simple question: How can we make the most of the space in front of our camper and protect ourselves from all weathers? This challenge gave rise to our vision. With a sewing machine and a lot of passion, we, Florian and Marcel from Bern, developed the first prototype – more than just a tarp, but an invitation to enjoy nature without restrictions.
Thanks to the support of a product designer and a successful Kickstarter campaign, our idea became a high-quality product. Today, we are proud to offer campers like you a solution that enhances every adventure.
Frequently asked questions
The tarp is 3m wide and x 6.5m long.
The tarp is made of 80D ripstop nylon, 3x silicone coated, waterproof and UV resistant. The water column was measured at 10,000mm.
The vehicle unit/lock (with 5 attachment points for suction cups and two integrated keders for 5.5mm, 7.5mm and 11.5mm keder rails – the most common sizes on the market) which is attached to your vehicle has a length of 2.5m and a width of 26cm. Your vehicle should therefore have a roof length of at least 2.5m.
The poles are height-adjustable from 186-214 cm for vehicles with a maximum roof height of up to 2m20 (e.g. VW Bulli, T1-6, Marco Polo….)
For vehicles with a roof height of more than 2.20 m (e.g. Pössl, high roof etc.) the bars are adjustable from 230-258 cm.
The compressible set bag has a size of 54cm x 17cm x 28cm. The poles and the pegs fit in the bag or can be stored in the separate bags (in case your campervan is packed and you need to optimize the space!). The total weight of the set is 5360 grams
330D ripstop nylon
Made from 7075 aluminum
11.8cm, for mounting they must be placed on a flat surface.
We intentionally designed The Wildside Campervan Tarp to fit all campervans. However, a roof length of at least 2.5m (8.2 ft) should be provided for optimal bracing.
It can be pulled into a C-rail (also known as piping) with 5.5mm, 7.5mm, or both together into an 11.5 piping rail or alternatively attached with suction cups or to the vehicle rims.
You can build it on your own, it’s not a problem. You attach the lock to the vehicle, connect it to the zipper on the tarp, set up two poles and tension them – done. With a little practice, you’ll be done in less than 5 minutes. The following link will take you to an assembly guide with tips & tricks. You will see, after 1-2 times of building you will already be in practice.

For all the set-up options we propose, 4 poles are enough, even for the “stand alone” position. Since the high-quality rods are very expensive to buy and, accordingly, the selling price of the set would increase with additional rods, we decided to buy 4 rods. Nevertheless, we offer you the possibility to buy additional rod(click here >), because with two additional rods you have of course even more possibilities and flexibility.
We do not have keder rail in the offer, because the lengths are individual depending on the vehicle. The keder rail should be at least 2m50 long, so that the tarp resp. the lock can be attached.
As an alternative to the keder rail, the tarp can be attached to the vehicle with suction cups, these can be ordered separately.
On the lock it has 5 loops to attach the suction cups. For stable hold, 3 of them should be attached with a suction cup. You can easily use your own for this.
The hole is intentionally narrow, so that the rod has a hold even after repeated use and does not fall out so quickly in windy conditions (the one rod has another hole at the top where the pin can be inserted in addition to securing). Also it helps that the whole remains tight. The first time you use it, just screw the rod in with pressure.
We are convinced that you will also be as enthusiastic about our tarp as we are. If it is still not satisfactory to you, you can return it within 60 days from the date of delivery and we will give you a full refund.

More space and protection for your outdoor adventure
Do you need more space and protection for your outdoor activities? Our tarp offers you almost 20m² of space, more shade than most awnings on the market and complete flexibility. With a depth of 3 meters, you can brace the sides downwards like side walls or stretch it out like a gable roof to reduce it. And yet it fits into a small duffel bag like a small sports bag.
Flexible and tear-resistant fabric for all weathers
Our tarp is made from a specially developed tear-resistant nylon fabric with a multi-layer silicone coating, reinforced guy points made from safety webbing and embroidered eyelets for the tarp poles. It is designed to withstand even adverse conditions. Spiral pegs and sand/snow pegs in the set also allow you to attach in soft soils.
Sun protection with UV protection 50+
Inexpensive fabrics usually use a PU coating that becomes brittle over time. Our fabric is extra soft and the silicone coating is UV-resistant. The top side is light-reflective and the bottom side is completely opaque. So we can grant a UV protection of 50+ in good conscience.
Wind and rain protection for your outdoor activities
The tarp is designed to withstand even strong wind and rain. We use safety webbing with an abrasion-resistant Hyperlon insert so that the guy points are extremely robust. The side walls that can be guyed down also allow for a little more protection in crosswinds. Water flows downwards and the tarp has a slope. The sides can be tensioned downwards and all seams have been sealed since the second production run. So you can enjoy the outdoors even when it’s raining.
What sets us apart from other offerings?
Our tarp offers you a flexible, tear-resistant fabric that returns to its original shape after use. The light-proof silicone coating (instead of PU) does not become brittle and can withstand any weather. The guy points have stitched loops for tarp poles, so there are no cheap metal eyelets that tear out over time. Abrasion-resistant Hyperlon inserts in the loops provide additional durability. Our tarp is faster to set up due to the removable lock and also stands alone. It’s perfect for a trip to the shops or a garden party. The bars are adjustable in height and are plugged. They are made entirely of reinforced aluminum and have no plastic parts. The set of different pegs provides options for mounting in most soils. The cords are tear-resistant and extra reflective, with very easy-to-use aluminum guy ropes.
Our tarp offers you more space and protection for your outdoor adventure. It is flexible, robust and fits into a small duffel bag. With UV protection 50+ and a lightproof silicone coating, it can withstand any weather. The embroidered loops and abrasion-resistant Hyperlon inserts offer additional durability. The tarp is quick to set up and stands on its own. With height-adjustable poles and various pegs, you can attach it to most floors. The tear-resistant cords are extra reflective and easy to use.
