Is Dometic and Seitz the same company?
Updated resources;
KCT is still around; http://www.kctechnik.com/en/index.html
All the "big players" seem to use them; http://www.kctechnik.com/en/retailers.html
(interestingly, the US dealer, GXV, refers to the KCT's as their own "Armor Vision" windows, so if you hear the name Armor Vision, know they're really KCT).
Outbound is still around; http://www.outbound.eu/en/index.php
EuroVision; http://aussietraveller.com.au/products/caravan-components/eurovision-windows
Can someone confirm details?;
KCT are dual pane(clear tempered safety glass), steel reinforced frame, what outer frame?
Outbound are dual pane(tinted glazed glass), aluminum window frame, fiberglass/polyester outer frame, built-in pressure system?
EuroVision are single pane(acrylic)?
Seitz is the window division of Dometic
We have an order of Outbound windows coming in next month and I am happy to report on them when I have them, we are looking into being a NA distributor for them if we determine that they are a good alternative to other US available options. The other windows we use and can sell are polyvision, dual pane acrylic and similar quality to the seitz. The only rub is that they not come with a shade/screen system. There are some systems out there that we used but they tend to be more expensive than the windows. The advantage is that they are recessed or hidden in the wall panels so you don't end up with a bulky plastic window trim on the inside of the camper.

Why would you buy from Australia if you can purchase from Artic Tern Windows in North America? The customer service and turn around times are outstanding.
Outbound is certainly a great product! We have a bunch of customers that use them. Interesting to see and hear how many builders like to become their dealers in North America

And they have no US dealer let because why???

Apologies, for some reason my computer wasn't pulling up Tern Overland so I thought they were out of business. Revised post above.
I have a few questions about the Eurovision windows. Is there any way to get them in clear? And, has anyone figured out how to open them more than 60 degrees? Thanks all!
Thank you Andreas. The wife really liked the windows that opened all the way, with respect to when this should be done (conditions allowing) for viewing purposes. I respect their design, I was just asking because it had been mentioned earlier in this thread.A clear option is not available. The opening angles are pre set and other than removing the truts, can not be changed. To be honest with you, I wouldn't recommend that anyway... The windows are designed to NOT act like a sail when the wind picks up. Hence the 60 degree... If you would open them more, the wind would get a hold of it easier and seriously damage the window. In other words, they are very well build and designed with a lot of thought.
