Genesis and Garnica have created exceptional, high-quality modern solutions to fulfill the increasing demands of the contemporary world.
According to a KOA study conducted in 2022, the RV industry is witnessing a significant increase in demand, with 11 million Americans buying RVs and an additional 2 million renting them in the past year.
DESIGN INSPIRATION
Alfonso Muñoz, the Chief Strategy Officer of Garnica, visited Genesis, a prominent supplier of laminated panels, wood components, and customized molded solutions in the US in 2008. Genesis was impressed with the innovative and superior plywood products of Garnica and identified the potential for a mutually advantageous partnership. Thus, they started sourcing premium plywood from Garnica for their RV clients, and the companies have collaborated closely ever since.
To meet escalating demands, Genesis and Garnica have developed high-quality cabinetry that is both sustainable and lightweight. Genesis employs poplar-based products to construct cabinet frames and doors from Garnica's Efficiency HDF. These cabinet frames and doors are 30% lighter than conventional RV cabinets and doors.
PROJECT
The substantial decrease in weight leads to enhanced fuel efficiency while on the road. Moreover, Genesis incorporates several other Garnica products in its RV manufacturing process, such as:
• Efficiency Poplar panels: These panels are created using a versatile and sustainable material made entirely from poplar wood, which serves as joints between the panels. These panels are robust, lightweight, and machinable, allowing for secure interlocking, resulting in better-built cabinetry.
• Efficiency HDF: This premium product is ideal for high-end RVs, providing a luxurious finish that complements solid colors like white, grey, or black.
• Elegance Birch panels: These panels are specially designed for two-sided cabinetry and provide a smooth and seamless surface, offering exquisite and practical comfort.
• Garnica's sustainable, farm-grown poplar laminate: This product offers a flawless surface, allowing for various finishes to be added to it.
RESULT
As the RV market thrives, there is an increasing demand for lightweight and sustainable cabinetry solutions. Garnica and Genesis have formed an ideal partnership, growing together and developing customized solutions in a highly dynamic market. Genesis has been able to create high-quality, lightweight cabinetry for their RV OEMs and clients by utilizing Garnica's sustainable poplar plywood products, such as Efficiency HDF and Efficiency Poplar panels, resulting in improved fuel efficiency on the road.
Garnica has proven to be a reliable and trustworthy partner, providing superior plywood panels of exceptional quality, delivered on time and within budget. As the sector continues to evolve, we can expect to see more lightweight, sustainable, and durable finishes that will propel the RV industry to new heights in terms of elegance, comfort, and affordability. The partnership between Garnica and Genesis is a shining example of how sustainable materials and innovative solutions can contribute to an evolving market.
