ABOUT CARAPACE

ORIGIN

A few years ago two car enthusiasts got together to try and solve a problem many enthusiasts have – what do you do when you need to house your beloved car but don’t have a garage (or don’t have any space left in it) to do it in? Three years later and they’ve done it! They have invented the garage for those who can’t have a garage… and it’s called a Carapace.

UK designed and manufactured, the Carapace (which means the hard shell of a crustacean) is a unique glass reinforced plastic (grp) structure. It has been created to not only store your car safely but to also ensure that it’s stored in a space that is well ventilated whilst at the same time guaranteed to keep the worst of the UK’s weather well away from it. Not only that, the Carapace is incredibly durable and maintenance free. It is also classed as a temporary structure, so it means you can take it with you if you move.

For anyone who has problems with a normal shaped structure/garage, or who can’t build a garage on their property, this is the perfect alternative.
