  • Caravan and camper owners constantly struggle with dust accumulation during transportation. Despite tightly sealing doors, vents, and windows, a fine layer of dust settles inside the vehicle after each trip, especially in typical Australian outback conditions. Traditional dust suppression systems, mounted on caravan roofs, necessitate structural reinforcing and extensive waterproofing, often resulting in leaks and interior damage. The Gusto DRS design challenge was simple. Develop a discreet, simple, and eco focussed wall mounted device that prevents dust ingress and accumulation during travel.

  • The Gusto DRS surpasses expectations, offering effective dust elimination and a seamless user experience. Extensive research on pressure dynamics informed the optimised fan design, specifications, and placement, resulting in a device that can adequately pressurise a 27ft caravan in seconds. The innovative and compact design mounts to a caravan's sidewall and discreetly tucks into an interior cupboard. Users can easily install the Gusto DRS without structural reinforcing, extensive waterproofing, or risking leaks. The DRS is then simply operated with an on/off switch - The device does the rest!

  • With record caravan sales in 2022, Australia's passion for caravanning continues to grow. The Gusto DRS addresses a universal issue for caravan users and does so in an innovative and responsible way - It is powered via a solar rechargeable battery and is designed for optimal airflow efficiency, reducing power consumption. It is also serviceable; the washable lifetime filter will ensure the DRS lasts the life of the caravan. Designed in Australia, for the harsh Australian environment, the DRS delivers to users a high quality design solution that will ensure caravanning remains a favourite Australian pastime for years to come.
