A refrigerated body in premium trim: glass-reinforced plastic inside and out. That is one continuous smooth surface with no seams or rivets — it takes a pressure wash, brine does not rust it and it does not hold smells. Lashing rails run along both walls inside: cargo is strapped at any height, not just at floor level, so pallets stop wandering on a half-empty run. The refrigeration unit sits over the cab and costs no load volume. A 5,200 mm body on a Japanese HINO 300 delivery chassis.
One continuous smooth surface with no seams or rivets. It takes a pressure wash, brine does not eat it and it does not hold smells — which matters when the same body carries fish one day and dairy the next. Galvanised sheet is cheaper, but it has seams, and in time those become where dirt collects.
Floor lashing only holds the bottom row. The rail runs along the walls at height, so a strap can go over a pallet or secure the upper tier of boxes. On a half-empty run that is the only way to stop the load from wandering.
Up there it costs no load volume: the condenser sits on the front wall above the cab, the evaporator goes under the ceiling inside. There is nowhere to put an underslung unit on a delivery truck — under the frame it is crowded with the tank, batteries and spare wheel.
Yes — that is what it is built for. Walls and ceiling are FRP, the floor is treadplate aluminium, the joints are sealed. Water drains through plugs in the floor. That is exactly why this body is chosen for meat and fish, where washing after every run is mandatory.
Yes. The HINO 300 exceeds 3,500 kg gross, which is category C. We build category-B reefers on light chassis — they are collected in the “Vehicles” section.
