About us

CEO

Christopher Bickford

“Since our one year trip across Africa in the MB Unimog, traveling and vacationing with camper vans has captivated us completely. In search of a suitable vehicle that allows us to pursue our hobbies such as skiing, downhill biking, enduro riding, diving, paragliding and model flying, we have now arrived at our Essential Van.”

CEO

Markus Beneditschitz

“I have already traveled through New Zealand and across Europe in self-converted vans, always searching for wind- and wave-safe areas to enjoy sports with my family (4 people) such as windsurfing, kitesurfing, surfing, mountain biking, snowboarding, and skiing. As a vehicle development engineer, I am constantly looking for practical and technically optimal solutions to fit all the sports equipment in the van while providing comfortable sleeping arrangements for all family members.”
