Materials for the VW T5 Transporter Camper Kit
Lightweight, Waterproof, and Durable Plywood Options for Every Camper Setup
The VW T5 Transporter camper conversion can be built using several high-quality plywood materials, each with similar structural properties but unique visual and functional characteristics.
Below are the main options — all part of our 2025 Camper Design Series, including the custom mattress pack.
(Starting from just €800, with mattress included — prices and options available in our online store.)
1️⃣ Natural Poplar Plywood (Approx. €850 – Mattress Pack Included)
Properties and Color:
A very light-toned wood, almost white, with soft natural grain.
It's the lightest option — a typical furniture set for a mid-size van like the Berlingo weighs around 30 kg.
Easy to handle and moisture-resistant (hydrofuge), it offers excellent water resistance, though not fully waterproof.
-
Thickness: 15 mm
-
Strong and difficult to chip or crack
-
Great value for larger camper furniture builds
Downside: The surface is slightly soft, so it may mark if pressure is applied (e.g., sitting on keys).
2️⃣ Phenolic Natural Wood Plywood (Approx. €850 – Mattress Pack Included)
Properties and Color:
A mid-light natural wood tone with visible grain, giving a rustic cabin-style look.
It's lightweight yet stronger than poplar, more resistant to dents or surface marks.
A similar furniture kit for a Berlingo weighs around 40 kg.
This plywood is fully phenolic-treated, meaning it's waterproof and rot-resistant, with the waterproof layer laminated between the wood layers.
-
Thickness: 15 mm
-
Balanced between rustic aesthetics and durability
Downside: Slightly more porous texture than other materials.
3️⃣ HPL Phenolic Plywood (Coachbuilder Type) (Approx. €900 – Mattress Pack Included)
Properties and Color:
A dark brown to near-black finish, ultra-resistant and with anti-stick HPL coating.
It's the most durable and long-lasting of all three materials, designed for professional-grade camper builds.
Waterproof inside and out, and extremely easy to clean.
-
Thickness: 15 mm
-
Ideal for heavy-duty or off-road camper setups
-
Completely waterproof, resistant to scratches and impacts
Downside: Slightly heavier than the other two options, though all three remain within the lightweight camper furniture category.
Main Features of the VW T5 Transporter Camper Furniture Kit
Modular Camper Furniture with Custom Storage, Table System, and Optional Fridge Integration
The VW T5 Transporter Camper Box is designed with functionality and versatility in mind.
It includes a custom-made pull-out drawer suitable for a Campingaz single-burner or dual-burner stove, providing a compact and efficient cooking area.
Behind the drawer, there's an independent storage compartment with a top lid, ideal for utensils or supplies.
In the center, the kit includes a multi-height folding table usable both inside and outside the van — perfect for dining mode or lounge setup, as clearly shown in the video above.
Behind the table, another top-lid trunk offers extra storage.
On the left-hand side, there are two dual-access storage compartments (top and front openings).
The rear-left trunk is specifically designed to fit a compressor fridge (e.g., FR40), while the front-opening trunk can house a 12V outdoor shower system.
Altogether, the rear module includes two top-access trunks and three additional front compartments, plus two more if side modules are installed — maximizing every inch of available space.
(See video above for a full visual reference.)
The fridge can be installed either in the rear storage area or in a front sliding drawer, depending on user preference.
Note: choosing the front drawer configuration adds a €25 supplement.
For best performance and perfect fit, we recommend the Coolzone 35L compressor fridge, which integrates seamlessly with the VW T5 camper furniture layout.
VW T5 Transporter Camper Furniture Design, Space Optimization & Modular Comfort
Smart Storage Layout, Lateral Modules, and Custom Mattress Pack for the VW T5 Camper Box
We recommend configuring the left-side storage trunk with a dual opening system (top and front), as it allows the best space optimization based on our extensive experience.
This design lets you store a water tank for the 12 V outdoor shower or even a portable toilet (Potti).
However, our suggestion is to store the Potti under the table compartment and move it to the van's front area when dining.
That way, the left trunk remains free for your shower tank or other essential camping gear.
The kit also includes side modules that cover the wheel arches, creating a full-width bed from wall to wall.
Each side module has a top lid, making it an ideal place to store bedding on one side and laundry on the other for efficient organization.
If desired, you can choose a double-drawer configuration.
However, we don't recommend it, since adding more slides and wood reduces storage volume considerably and adds extra weight.
Even though we use reinforced slides rated for 30–40 kg, the long-term lever effect makes single storage bays more practical and durable.
We also focus on aesthetic balance, ensuring that every camper box integrates perfectly with the vehicle's interior tones.
Our Dark Grey mattress pack and coordinated furniture finishes have been selected by popular demand, combining strength, harmony, and durability.
We prioritize build quality and long-lasting materials — our goal is that your VW T5 Camper Furniture Kit lasts even longer than your van itself.
Kit Dimensions and Mattress Pack
The VW T5 Transporter Camper Box dimensions may vary depending on whether you keep the original seats installed.
You'll find several demonstration videos on this page showing each configuration in detail.
-
Standard width (without mattress pack): 120 cm
-
With side modules (wheel arches exposed): +16 cm per side, total ≈ 155 cm with mattress pack
-
Depth: 120 cm
-
Bed length: 185–190 cm
The custom mattress pack is designed for each van model and divided into sections to maximize space in lounge, dining, and hammock modes.
If your van has plastic trims or rear A/C ducts covering the wheel arches, we adapt the kit by adding removable side flaps, maintaining full bed width.
We've prepared a dedicated guide explaining the features of our mattress packs, how we size them for each vehicle, and how they solve the most common user questions.
🟦 Included Mattress Pack
Every VW T5 Camper Furniture Kit comes with a custom-made mattress pack included in the price.
This modular design isn't just for sleeping comfort — it also lets you access storage compartments easily without disassembling the full bed.
Each mattress fits tightly with minimal gaps, offering a firm, comfortable, and uniform sleeping surface comparable to a home bed.

Assembly, Height Options and Structural Design of the VW T5 Transporter Camper Furniture
Solid Two-Part Structure with Reinforced Support System and Optimized Weight Distribution
All our VW T5 Transporter camper modules include a dedicated storage slot for both the table leg and bed supports, keeping them secured to prevent rattling or movement while driving.
Everything fits neatly within the boot area, ensuring a clean, safe and compact storage system.
Across all VW T5 Transporter versions, our camper furniture kits distribute weight across two main structural sections, a design extensively tested to prevent any stress or damage to the vehicle.
-
The main module serves as the primary support structure and remains fixed in the cargo area.
-
The deployable section folds out and rests either on the folded rear seats or on a folding leg system if the seats have been removed.
We can tailor the setup to different height configurations, depending on whether the van retains its original seats:
-
With seats: installation height around 56 cm, matching the folded-seat level (keeps 5 or 6 seats usable).
-
Without seats: 40–44 cm, maximizing vertical storage and sleeping space for camping use.
This dual-structure system guarantees a stable, compact build where the load is evenly distributed and the van's seats are fully protected — a common customer concern we've thoroughly addressed through long-term testing.
