About Lux Lander

Family built.
Road proven.

We are a small, family run business in George, Western Cape, and we have been part of South Africa's trailer manufacturing industry since 2008. The X4 is the caravan we always wanted to build.

2008 Where it started

A workshop with a family name on the door.

Lux Lander began as a small, family run trailer business in George. No investors and no production line, just a workshop, a commitment to doing the job properly and customers who kept coming back.

Since Learning the hard way

What the road teaches you.

More than fifteen years of building trailers taught the family what corrugations do to hinges, what dust does to seals and what owners actually use when they are a long way from help. Every lesson went back into the next build.

Then The next step

The X4 off road caravan.

The natural progression was a caravan. The X4 keeps the toughness of a proper off road trailer and adds a queen bed, a slide out kitchen, a wet bath and off grid power, without losing the compact footprint that gets you through the narrow tracks.

Today Built to order

Made in George, finished by hand.

Each X4 is built in our George workshop on a 3CR12 stainless steel chassis, clad in aluminium and finished in automotive paint. Four sleeper or two sleeper, it leaves the door ready for wherever you are going.

From the workshop floor

Every X4 starts
as bare metal.

Frame, chassis, panels and paint all happen under one roof in George. Nothing is outsourced that we can do better ourselves.

What we stand for

Small team.
High standards.

01

Family, not a factory

The people who weld your chassis are the people who answer the phone. That is how we have worked since 2008 and it is not about to change.

02

Made for here

Designed, engineered and manufactured entirely in South Africa, for South African terrain, weather and distances.

03

Built once, built right

Stainless steel where it matters, aluminium where weight counts, and components chosen to be serviced, not replaced.

The materials

Chosen for the
long way round.

  • 01

    3CR12 stainless steel

    Chassis & main body

    A utility stainless steel that resists corrosion far better than mild steel, so river crossings, coastal air and muddy tracks do not eat away at the structure.

  • 02

    Aluminium

    Doors, roof, floor & internal panels

    Light, strong and rust free, keeping the tare down without giving up rigidity.

  • 03

    Automotive paint

    Exterior finish

    The same class of finish you would expect on a vehicle, for a deep colour that stands up to sun and stone chips.

  • 04

    Proven components

    Running gear & systems

    A 2,500 kg braked axle on parabolic leaf suspension, a 2,700 kg brake coupler and a Victron solar system.

Go further than the brochure roads. Stay longer than the weekend. Come home with dust in the hinges and nothing broken.

Unplug. Explore. Repeat.

Come and see how it is made.

The best way to understand an X4 is to stand next to one. Viewings are by appointment so that someone from the family can walk you through every detail.
