Supersede: Could Recycled Plastic Replace Plywood in RVs?

What if the future of RV construction isn’t wood at all?

In this episode of Beyond The Wheel Podcast, we sit down with Sean Petterson, Co-Founder and CEO of Supersede. We discuss a material that could change the way RVs, trailers, boats, and even homes are built.

Sean shares how his experience building innovative products led to the creation of Supersede, a structural panel made from recycled plastic designed to replace traditional plywood. We discuss the challenges of water damage, weight reduction, sustainability, supply chain issues, and what it takes to convince manufacturers to move away from materials they’ve relied on for generations.

Topics covered include:

• Why Supersede was created
• The limitations of traditional plywood in RV construction
• The use of recycled plastic in structural applications
• Waterproof and rot-proof building materials
• Weight savings and efficiency benefits
• Sustainability and recycling initiatives
• Adoption challenges within the RV industry
• Future applications beyond RVs and trailers
• What the future of RV construction may look like
