More about the design on the page insulated vans.
The body is built on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis.
Body type — insulated, sandwich panel, external dimensions 5,200 × 2,250 × 2,400 mm. That leaves 5,000 × 2,050 × 2,200 mm, 100 mm panel inside: the panel thickness is subtracted on every side, floor and ceiling included. Usable volume is ≈ 22.6 m³ (5,000 × 2,050 × 2,200 mm), counted from the internal dimensions rather than by multiplying the external ones.
The floor is chequered aluminium. Doors: rear barn doors + a side door.
Fitted equipment: reflective contour tape, folding ladder, rails for partitions.
Ribbed aluminium flooring is chosen where cargo moves on trolleys: the sheet takes no moisture, hoses down and does not delaminate under wheels. It is heavier than plywood but outlasts it severalfold.
A side door changes distribution logistics: at each stop you open it rather than the whole rear portal — less cold escapes and the truck can park tight against its neighbour.
An isothermal body does not produce cold — it slows heat exchange with the outside. Such a van is chosen for short runs and for cargo loaded already chilled: bread, confectionery, drinks, groceries. Usable volume here is ≈ 22.6 m³ (5,000 × 2,050 × 2,200 mm) — the block above estimates the load in pallets.
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: FAW 1027 (T80), Foton 5163, GAZelle Next A21R32, GAZon NEXT. They differ in payload, frame length and licence category.
A standard 1,200 × 800 mm europallet, single tier, no restacking. Internal dimensions with a 50 mm laying allowance — a pallet will not go in dead tight.
Inside 5 000 × 2 050 × 2 200 mm · 22,6 m³
The layout scheme is on the right: it shows how the rows sit and how much room is left.
