MIDDLEBURY, Ind. — Shasta RV, one of the most recognized and respected names in the RV industry, has announced a strategic partnership with UFP Factory Built, manufacturers of BRAWN, a premium American-made structural wall system specifically engineered to enhance the structural frame of Shasta RVs.
This collaboration brings exclusive, next-generation sidewall construction to Shasta’s introductory travel trailers, raising the bar on strength, safety, and reliability in this market segment, according to a release.
Starting June 13, Shasta began integrating BRAWN’s single-piece wall system into production, ushering in a new era of consistency and performance for the brand. While many introductory RVs still rely on traditional wood-framed walls built with staples and jigs, Shasta is offering something fundamentally stronger and more advanced.
“Our customers are value-conscious, but they don’t want to compromise on quality,” said Meg Grierson, General Manager of Shasta RV. “By partnering with UFP Factory Built on BRAWN, we’re giving our buyers structural integrity they can count on. From ease of towing to long-term durability, these walls deliver real benefits you can feel.”

Proudly built in the USA, the all-new BRAWN sidewall sets a new standard for durability and performance. Engineered with the highest degree of precision, BRAWN is more than just a wall system; it is a smarter, tougher foundation giving confidence and peace of mind to RVers for the road ahead.
