More about the design on the page ice-cream vans.
A eutectic van on a Hino 300 with a 4,200 mm body is a truck for urban delivery of ice cream and frozen convenience food. Four loading hatches per side: the seller walks up to the right section and takes out the boxes without opening the whole load space or climbing inside. On a round with a couple of dozen stops that is the main saving — of time and of cold alike.
Inside the body there are eutectic plates — cold accumulators. They freeze overnight from the mains and give the cold back during the day, holding −33 °C with the engine off. The body is rated for freezing down to −40 °C. On the route the truck is silent: no compressor, no noise, no fuel spent on cold and no defrost at every stop — the hatches open for seconds and cold air, being heavy, stays inside.
A 120–140 mm panel — twice as thick as on an ordinary reefer, because deep freezing allows nothing less. The floor is covered with ventilated mats that keep boxes off the surface so they cannot freeze to it. The hatches have reinforced latches and reflective markings run round the body.
The Hino 300 is a Japanese medium-duty truck: a 4-litre 165 hp turbodiesel, six-speed manual, 5-tonne chassis payload, category C. Hino is not currently supplied to Kazakhstan, so we cannot repeat the project on this exact chassis — we build the same body on JAC, FAW and GAZ. We help pick a replacement from your round: number of stops, load weight, route length.
A review of this truck on our YouTube channel.

The project is based on a HINO 300 chassis. The engine is turbo diesel, 4 L, 165 hp.
This is a eutectic — a body with deep-freezing down to −40 °C; externally the body is 4,200 mm.
Operating range: −33 °C (eutectic plates).
A eutectic body charges from the mains overnight and holds sub-zero all day with the engine off — the classic ice-cream truck and city distribution of deep-frozen goods.
This body is not a catalogue item but a project we actually built. We will make the same one to your dimensions: length, width and height are calculated for your cargo and the chassis payload, rather than fitting the cargo to a ready-made size.
We also fit it to your own chassis: bring the vehicle, we take the frame dimensions, build the body, mount it and hand it over with the conversion paperwork.
If you are still choosing a chassis, we have the same body on other bases as well: GAZelle Business, Hyundai HD78, JAC N56. They differ in payload, frame length and licence category.
Leave your contact details — we will confirm availability/lead time and quote a price.
