What is a refrigerated truck body?

Composite Box specializes in refrigerated CKD box truck body design and production. It can be used for cold storage and freezing. Provide 50mm+ fiberglass sandwich panels with PU and XPS foams. They must have the best thermal insulation and heat preservation, with a thermal conductivity close to 0. Support multi-temperature zones and kit options.

  • Available in box truck body lengths from 3 to 12 meters and thicknesses from 30 to 140 mm.
  • 16 kinds of kit options, one-stop service.
  • Reduced cost, waterproof, long service life

Refrigerated box truck bodies can cater to cargo such as frozen food, fresh vegetables and fruits, meat, eggs, and dairy products. Besides, we also offer refrigerated trailers, refrigerated semi-trailers, and dry box truck bodies.

We support CKD delivery and accept OEM and ODM custom work. Composite is a professional supplier of refrigerated trucks


specificities:

Specialised Foam Sandwich Panels for Reefer Trucks

We are also a professional foam sandwich panel manufacturer, we produce high quality insulated sandwich panels for refrigerated trucks.
It is made of one-piece composite panels with foam core made of PU and XPS, and the outer skin is made of FRP or GRP, and the thermal insulation property of PU is 0.022W/mK.
The other one is XPS, with an insulation performance of 0.029W/mK, which allows you to drive on hot roads without worrying about high temperatures.
It is also easy to install, no complicated tools are required, just a screw gun is needed to complete the installation smoothly.

Advantages:

Composite box early to provide foam sandwich panels for refrigerated trucks; after years of research and production, we can provide a complete solution, and in terms of performance, we can do better.

  • Cost-effective: in-house production capacity reduces costs.
  • Customised kits: up to 16 types of kits available, including floor, front door, locks, etc.
  • High strength: using FRP as skin, vacuum high-temperature lamination.
  • Long service life: not easy to age, good waterproof performance, long service life
  • Easy installation: one person can install it.
  • Advanced material: beyond the traditional aluminum truck body panels

Customisation options:

We offer specialised kits:

Our kit has the following options available: wall panels, floors, cargo E-track, side door, edge and corner laps, door frame, lock and hinge, multi-temperature zone partition, subframe, refrigeration unit, rear bumper and side guardrails, and meat hanging rail system.

  • Additional processing of accessories is available.
  • Internal reinforcement: plywood, aluminum tube, and FRP tube can be used for box truck body reinforcement.
  • CNC machining, cutting, grinding, etc. are available.

FAQ

Aluminium sheet refrigerated truck are conventional. The performance in all aspects is not as good as FRP/GRP sandwich panel refrigerated trucks, such as the following three points:

  • Low thermal insulation: aluminium sheet has a high thermal conductivity. It cannot maintain a low temperature inside the refrigerated truck. It is not a specialized insulation material.
  • Higher cost: aluminium plate is a metal material; metal materials are difficult to process, and high cost.
  • Not lightweight: Aluminum panels are heavy. But FRP foam panels are lightweight. They can improve fuel efficiency and speed.

FRP foam panels are light, insulated, and corrosion-resistant. They are easy to install. So, they are ideal for refrigerated truck.

Good thermal insulation properties:

  • Fiberglass foam panels have very low thermal conductivity. This prevents heat transfer and keeps the refrigerated van at a stable, low temperature. This is crucial for transporting goods that need strict temperature control, like food and pharmaceuticals.
  • It can reduce the running time and energy consumption of refrigeration equipment and lower operating costs.

Lightweight and high strength:

  • Compared to other materials, fiberglass foam sheets are lightweight and do not put too much extra burden on the vehicle, helping to improve its fuel economy.
  • At the same time, it has a certain degree of strength and rigidity and can withstand the weight of goods and vibrations during transport.

Corrosion Resistant:

  • It has good resistance to moisture, chemicals, and other corrosive factors, which can ensure the long-term service life of refrigerated compartments.

Easy to process and install:

  • Fiberglass panels can be customized to suit different sizes of refrigerated carriages and are quick and easy to install. If other materials are used, then they will be more difficult.

A refrigerated box van is also called a refrigerated truck, freezer truck, or insulated truck. It is a vehicle for transporting temperature-sensitive goods. It has a refrigeration unit and an insulated box body. They are made using PU and XPS foam sandwich panels.

The refrigeration temperature range of refrigerated box truck can usually be adjusted to suit different needs. The temperature ranges that can be achieved by common refrigerated truck are as follows:

  • Fresh Refrigerated: usually around 0℃ to 10℃, suitable for transporting fruits, vegetables, flowers, and other goods with relatively high temperature requirements.
  • Frozen Refrigerated: can reach -18℃ or even lower, suitable for transporting frozen food, ice cream, meat, and other goods that require deep freezing.

Different types of refrigerated trucks and equipment perform differently. The actual temperature reached will depend on the outside temperature, the cargo load, the vehicle’s condition, and other factors.
