Refrigerated Truck Insulation 8-14ft Best Solution
Light weight truck body, the most important performance is thermal insulation, we use FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) materials as the skin of the body. The core of the sandwich panel is made of PU (polyurethane) / XPS (extruded polystyrene) foam. By adjusting the thickness and density/m³ of the foam core, Can achieve different insulation properties, making refrigerated transportation safer and more efficient, and with a service life of up to 10 years.
size and applications:
CARBODY offers small reefer trucks in 8ft, 10ft, 12ft, 14ft 15ft, 20ft, 22ft, and 24ft sizes (click to view reefer truck size comparison table listing). It can be used for frozen food, seafood, perishable food, vegetables, dairy products, and so on. It ensures safe and efficient transportation of refrigerated items.
Carbody’s light weight truck bodies are carefully designed and selected from refrigeration down to a single screw, floor, and kit. Our products are well insulated and heat-retaining, as well as corrosion-resistant, lightweight, and easy to clean, and our materials comply with food transportation policies. You can reduce operating costs while improving insulation performance and load capacity.
Long life span:With our advanced fiberglass, we can make the service life greatly increased to 10 years.
Low cost:Costs are lower than aluminum bodies and other body types.
apid installation:The factory can realize fast design and delivery, and easy installation, 1 person only needs to spend 1 day to install. And save a lot of cost
Beautiful appearance:Our truck bodies are neat and smooth in appearance, which can improve the image of the body and make the product more exquisite.
Not easy to corrode: advanced polymer plastic is used, which has a stable chemical structure and is not easy to corrode.
High-strength material: using FRP for skin, it is not easy to be destroyed during transportation and loading/unloading.
Kit optional: we have the whole truck body kit, you can choose according to your needs.
Resistant to high and low temperatures: our materials can work normally in ultra-low and ultra-high temperature environments.
Extremely high thermal insulation properties:
Light weight trucks are typically used for short-distance refrigerated transportation as well as multiple loads and unloads. During each loading and unloading, the temperature changes significantly, but for us, the refrigerated performance of the Light weight truck is no longer an issue!
Why is the cold storage performance so excellent?
We use the foam with CORE as PU or XPS for our car body, by increasing the density/m³ and thickness, it can be very efficiency for thermal insulation. If you have a very high requirement for a cold storage effect, you can choose PU foam as the core, its thermal insulation: is 0.022W/mK, another is XPS, its thermal insulation: is 0.029W/mK, so its thermal insulation effect is very excellent, XPS foam does not absorb water, and can keep the temperature. And the thermal insulation is excellent, no matter in the hot area again, our products can make you satisfied.
Body structure Performance:
We use high-strength insulation foam in our sandwich layer, which is widely welcomed and praised by many customers. And we have many kits to choose from.
Our high-end composite material for the truck bodies can reduce the weight of equipment and is a high-strength material. It is stronger than aluminum and very much more affordable. We use it in 8-16FT lightweight truck bodies to reduce fuel costs by over 30% and increase transportation efficiency.
Carbody is the most professional manufacturer of composite materials for trucks, providing the best solutions for our customers.

removable and tightly sealed multi-temperature zone partition. Multi-temperature zone refrigerated trucks can transport multiple goods in the same batch.
Light weight truck or light duty truck is a truck with a gross weight of up to 3,860 kilograms and is equipped with a compartment, which functions like any other heavy truck, but with less cargo capacity, but is very lightweight and suitable for last-mile transportation.
Are semi-trailers considered light trucks?
There are semi-trailers among the light trucks, but the size is smaller than driving, and other large full trailer capacity can not be compared, generally speaking, semi-trailer refers to the front end of the car behind the trailer with a carriage, but the carriage is not large.
What is the structure of refrigerated truck?
The main body of the refrigerated truck structure is composed of plastic foam boards, mainly FRP foam panels and CFRT foam panels, through a variety of kit compositions. The whole set of reefer body structures has high strength, and good heat insulation, excellent protection, CARBODY is a professional manufacturer of refrigerated body and its supporting manufacturers.
