About Holtkamper Tent Trailers
Holtkamper is the world's longest-established trailer tent manufacturer, founded in 1928 by Jelle Holtkamp Senior in the Netherlands — nearly a century of continuous Dutch manufacturing. Now part of the Campfire Group, Holtkamper operates from a purpose-built 4,500 m² assembly plant ("Tent Trailer Center Basecamp") in Emmen, Netherlands, opened in April 2022. All models are produced entirely in the Netherlands.
Holtkamper holds multiple international patents that define the premium end of the trailer tent market. The Wind(R)Force system uses a powerful fan to inflate the tent with air pressure — not inflatable tubes that can leak, but air pressure that causes the fabric to unfold naturally. Three buttons: setup, stop, fold-down. Camping-ready in 15 minutes. The Membrane Airco system uses a dual-layer roof to eliminate condensation and provide thermal management. In 1983, the Holtkamper Flyer set the world record for fastest-erecting folding caravan — 32 seconds including front awning — a record that still stands after 40+ years.
All Holtkamper tent trailers use premium ECO 100% Egyptian cotton tent cloth — lightweight, very densely woven, naturally waterproof and breathable. Frames are stainless steel with carbon fibre elements, mounted on AL-KO braked chassis. Holtkamper products command premium pricing (new models from €17,995 to €29,995) and hold their value exceptionally well on the used market.

Construction & materials
How Holtkamper trailer tents are built
Holtkamper tent trailers use a stainless steel folding frame with gas springs for easy operation. A single long carbon fibre tube forms the entire awning support structure on the flagship Kyte, creating the world's only pole-free floating awning. The tent fabric is ECO 100% Egyptian cotton — bleached, lightweight, and very densely woven for optimal waterproofness with exceptional breathability. All seams are double-stitched, and all zips are heavy-duty waterproof YKK throughout.
The chassis is AL-KO braked with shock absorbers, riding on 14-inch light-alloy wheels (13-inch on older models). The Pack-N-Go system allows access to up to 1,500 litres of under-bed storage without setting up the tent — essential for touring and quick stops. The patented Membrane Airco roof uses two layers of tent cloth creating a climate chamber: zipped together for insulation in cold weather, separated for heat rejection in summer. No condensation in any conditions.

Holtkamper Kyte XL Windforce
Used (2012)The Kyte XL Windforce is the flagship of the Holtkamper range — the largest and most fully-featured inflatable folding trailer tent in the world. The "XL" provides an extended living space of approximately 26 m², and the "Windforce" designation means it features Holtkamper's patented automated setup system: a powerful fan inflates the tent with air pressure (not inflatable tubes) using three simple buttons — setup, stop, fold-down. Camping-ready in approximately 15 minutes. This unit comes equipped with a king-size bed (210 x 155cm) with slatted base and luxury cold foam mattress, the unique pole-free floating awning (supported by a single carbon fibre mast — no loose upright poles or guy ropes), a Master Class bamboo kitchen with 3-burner gas hob and 40L compressor fridge, and a Kids Tent XL for additional sleeping. Built on an AL-KO braked chassis. The patented Membrane Airco dual-layer roof eliminates condensation in all conditions.
Holtkamper Kyte XL
Used (2013)The Holtkamper Kyte XL is the same flagship body and living space as the Kyte XL Windforce — approximately 26 m² with the unique pole-free floating awning — but with manual gas-strut assisted setup rather than the electric WindForce system. This makes it lighter (approx. 500 kg kerb weight vs 550 kg for the WindForce version) with greater payload capacity (approx. 250 kg). Setup is still easier than any competitor thanks to the gas-strut assisted frame design, taking around 30 minutes. All other premium features are shared: ECO 100% Egyptian cotton tent cloth, Membrane Airco dual-layer climate system, stainless steel and carbon fibre frame, AL-KO braked chassis, and Pack-N-Go storage access system. Holtkamper Kyte models hold their value exceptionally well — even 10+ year old units command strong prices.
Holtkamper Cocoon Aero MTT
Used (2016)The Holtkamper Cocoon Aero MTT is a now-discontinued mid-range model that combined features from the Cocoon and Kyte ranges. "Aero" denotes it features the patented WindForce automated setup. "MTT" indicates the extended chassis (420cm length) with integrated luxury kitchen featuring gas burners, refrigerator, shelves, and kitchen trays in HPL anthracite finish. This five-berth unit (2 adults + 3 children via Kids Tent XL) features the patented Membrane Airco dual-layer roof, a large "one mast" canopy, All Climate windows, two doors, a bathtub groundsheet in the living area, and a memory foam mattress on the main king-size slatted bed. It can be set up dry during heavy rain. At approximately 300 kg unladen, the 750 kg MTPLM leaves a generous 450 kg payload. Won the International Design Award for Innovations in New Mobility 2012–2013. The current equivalent is the Aero Wind(R)Force MTT (€28,995 new).
Holtkamper Flyer
Used (2013)The Holtkamper Flyer is a legendary model — first launched in 1983, it set the world record as the fastest-erecting folding caravan at 32 seconds including front awning, a record that still stands after 40+ years. The hard-top lid lifts up and folds over to become the floor of the living area, while the double bed slides out to reveal a spacious dinette. At just 350 kg kerb weight, it offers an exceptional 400 kg payload — the best payload-to-weight ratio in the trailer tent market. The compact folded dimensions (220 x 157 x 102cm) make it easy to store in any garage. Features include the Membrane Airco climate system, ECO 100% Egyptian cotton tent cloth, Greenbox Kitchen (lockable to chassis), under-bed tent, seat cushions, table, and an Adventure Tent (detachable, usable standalone). This model is discontinued — the current entry-level Holtkamper is the Astro (€17,995 new).
