The minimalist Sherpa model is a perfect combination of a small camper and mobility. The interior design takes advantage of the highly customizable large cabin. With onboard heating and quality 4-season insulation, you’ll be ready for any kind of weather. The interior layout maximizes the outdoor experience with two large side windows. Combined with the functional and efficient layout, the interior is equipped with high-quality components and appliances such as the Wallas XC stove/heater. Our healthy, high-performance wool insulation is unmatched in keeping you comfortable on any adventure.

There is nothing like a wool fiber.
Wool insulation
Moisture Management

Wool is the ultimate moisture manager. In the form of vapor, condensation, or water- moisture will inevitably make its way into your walls. You need insulation that actively manages that moisture, helping keep your vehicle dry and free of mold and mildew. Unlike any other insulation, wool is naturally able to absorb moisture while still retaining it’s high insulative properties. When the ambient air dries (>65%) wool will release the moisture into the air. The result is a long-lasting, non-slumping, high-performance insulation that keeps your walls dry and temperatures more constant.

R-Value

The most common way to measure insulation products is by R-Value which denotes resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. The wool comes in at an impressive R-Value per inch of 3.6. But R-Value is not the only way to measure insulation. What happens when moisture is introduced into an environment? The R-Value can plummet (as in the case of polysio board, the colder it gets, the less R-Value). In order to sustain high performance (high R-Value), your insulation also needs to actively manage moisture and stay dry. The wool does just that. Because wool is a hygroscopic insulator, it can absorb moisture without becoming wet to the touch and without affecting its superior performance.

Sound Absorption

A Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) is a rating for how much sound a material absorbs. Like a sponge absorbs water, insulation absorbs sound and the NRC tells us just how much sound gets soaked up. The higher the NRC rating, the better the sound absorption. So a material with an NRC of 1 absorbs 100% of sound. In the insulation world, NRC is an important factor because along with regulating temperature, insulation should also keep your living space quiet. Wool’s NRC of 90% beats most other insulation mediums. To be fair, there are some products with a slightly higher NRC but those tend to be designed specifically for sound absorption. As such, they fall short on other important metrics like R-Value…. not to mention moisture management, air filtration, and sustainability.

Sustainability

Wool is a truly sustainable building material, from its production to the end of its life. Wool is biodegradable and compostable unlike mainstream insulation which will sit in landfill, or, worse, on the ocean floor for the next 1,000 years. So after a very long life, wool can be placed back in the earth where it will break down on its own and actually fertilize the soil.
