Who Are Camptech?

Camptech is a long-established British awning brand in name, best known for offering well-designed caravan awnings at competitive price points.

While the brand is UK-based, Camptech awnings are manufactured overseas — primarily in China — which allows them to keep prices accessible without cutting corners on core materials.

Strong Value for Money

Camptech consistently delivers solid build quality at prices lower than many premium European brands.

Sensible Designs

Their ranges focus on practical layouts, usable living space, and straightforward pitching.

Wide Range

From lightweight touring awnings to more robust seasonal options, Camptech covers most common caravanning needs.

Where Camptech Excels

  • Touring caravanners
  • Short to medium stays
  • Buyers wanting good quality without premium pricing
  • Campers who pitch and pack away regularly

Where Camptech May Not Be Ideal

  • Long-term seasonal pitching in exposed locations
  • Buyers wanting ultra-heavy-duty European fabrics
  • Those expecting lifetime-level durability

Air vs Pole — Camptech’s Approach

Camptech offers both air and traditional pole awnings. Their air systems are generally reliable and quick to pitch, making them popular with touring caravanners.

However, like all air awnings, they rely on correct inflation, anchoring, and weather awareness — something we always advise buyers to understand before choosing air over pole.

Our Verdict on Camptech

Camptech awnings strike an excellent balance between price, usability, and quality.

They are a strong choice for the majority of UK caravanners — particularly those who tour regularly and want dependable gear without paying for a badge.
