Refrigerated Van — Manufactured from 14 Days

A refrigerated van is an insulated box of 50/80/100 mm sandwich panels with a heating/refrigeration unit that we mount on your chassis. Unlike an isothermal box, a reefer actively creates and maintains a temperature from −20 to +12 °C throughout the whole trip — for food, pharmaceuticals and any cargo that needs a cold chain. Own workshop in Almaty, Carrier · Elinge · Kaida units, 2-year warranty, lead time from 14 days.

Design

What the COND reefer body is made of

A COND reefer is our insulated body fitted with a refrigeration unit. First — what the body itself is made of: frameless sandwich panel, stainless steel rear frame, anodised edging and fibreglass doors. Below — element by element: the material, why we build it that way, and what it gives you.

Metal sandwich panels (as standard)

Material: a frameless panel — two skins of clad galvanised metal with an extruded polystyrene core, 50, 80 or 100 mm thick.

Why: assembly without through-metal ties between the skins removes thermal bridges; wall thermal conductivity is below 0.4 W/(m·°C).

Your benefit: the refrigeration unit holds the set point more easily and cycles less often — lower fuel consumption and longer unit life.

Stainless steel rear frame

Material: the rear door frame is made of stainless steel.

Why: this is the most loaded and the “wettest” zone of the body — constant contact with condensation, rain and road chemicals, where ordinary steel rusts first.

Your benefit: the frame does not corrode for years, the door always seals tight, and the body does not lose cold around the perimeter.

Anodised aluminium edging

Material: all outer edges and panel joints are covered with anodised aluminium profile.

Why: panel edges are the vulnerable spot during loading; the profile protects them from impacts and seals the joints.

Your benefit: the body does not come apart at the seams and keeps its integrity and appearance for its entire service life.

Fibreglass (FRP) doors

Material: double-skin FRP fibreglass doors with insulation and rubber isothermal seal.

Why: fibreglass does not corrode and is lighter than metal; the edge does not warp from condensation and temperature swings.

Your benefit: a lighter door means more payload; the seal holds the cold longer and the door does not sag.

Hardware: galvanised as standard, stainless as an option

Material: cam locks, hinges and handles in galvanised steel as standard or stainless steel in the premium trim.

Why: opening points work dozens of times a day and are the first to fail from corrosion and ice.

Your benefit: locks do not seize in winter; stainless steel is for intensive food logistics and pressure washing.

Heavy-duty steel subframe for overload

Material: a reinforced steel subframe with steel mounting inserts for the fasteners.

Why: the subframe spreads the weight of the body, cargo and refrigeration unit onto the chassis frame and absorbs impacts on rough roads.

Your benefit: the body does not shift on the frame, fasteners do not tear out, and both chassis and body last longer even under overload.

Refrigeration unit

Heating/refrigeration unit

The unit is what makes a reefer different from an isothermal box: it creates and maintains the required temperature. We install Carrier, Elinge and Kaida units — selecting the model for your body volume, duty and budget, with installation and servicing in our own workshop.

Carrier

Premium road and self-powered units: precise control, freezing down to −20 °C and heating up to +12 °C.

Elinge

Reliable units at a sensible price with affordable servicing — the workhorse of distribution.

Kaida

Chinese units for body volumes of 5–23 m³ — an affordable entry into refrigerated logistics.

Refrigeration unit drive types
Drive type	How it works	Best for
Road (engine-driven)	The compressor runs off the chassis engine while driving	city and intercity distribution
Stand-by 220/380 V	Mains electric drive — holds the cold when parked and overnight	warehouses, overnight storage, HoReCa
Self-powered (diesel)	Own diesel engine, independent of the vehicle engine	long hauls, long idle periods, expeditions

Options

Options — configure the reefer for your job

Options for your logistics — from a side door and tail lift to cargo securing. We agree the set when you order.

Side door

Single or double side door — fast multi-drop unloading without losing cold through the rear doors.

Chequered aluminium floor

Chequered aluminium instead of plywood: absorbs no moisture, does not rot, is easy to wash and lasts longer.

Tail lift

Hydraulic tail lift — loading heavy pallets without a ramp or forklift.

Cargo track

Perforated track on the walls — secure cargo with straps and partitions at any height.

Recessed tie-down ring in a COND body floor

Recessed floor tie-down rings

Recessed floor rings for lashing straps — cargo does not shift in turns and braking.

Steel cargo bar for securing cargo in the body

Cargo bars

Telescopic bars braced between the walls — divide the body and keep cargo from sliding.

Compartment partition

An insulated partition divides the body into compartments with different temperatures — frozen and chilled cargo in one trip.

Strip curtains in the doorway

PVC strip curtains keep the cold in while the doors are open for loading and unloading.

Drain holes for washing

Drain holes in the floor — water runs off when the body is washed and the floor holds no moisture.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about refrigerated vans

A refrigerated van is an insulated sandwich-panel body with a heating/refrigeration unit, mounted on a truck chassis. Unlike an isothermal box, a reefer actively creates and maintains a set temperature from −20 to +12 °C throughout the trip — for food, pharmaceuticals and other cargo that needs a cold chain.

An isothermal box is the same insulated body but without a refrigeration unit: it only slows heat exchange and does not maintain a set temperature by itself. A reefer is fitted with a heating/refrigeration unit that actually chills or freezes the cargo and holds the duty. Our insulated body is engineered for unit installation — it can be upgraded later into a reefer without replacing the body.

From −20 to +12 °C depending on the duty: down to −18…−20 °C for frozen cargo, 0…+5 °C for chilled, and with heating (Carrier) — up to +12 °C. Multi-temperature builds hold two duties at once using a partition — for example +5 °C and −18 °C in one body.

We install Carrier, Elinge and Kaida units — road (compressor driven by the chassis engine), stand-by 220/380 V electric and self-powered diesel. We select the model for the body volume and required duty, and install and service it in our own workshop.

A road compressor (engine-driven) — for city and intercity distribution. Stand-by 220/380 V — mains electric drive that holds the cold when parked and overnight, good for warehouses and HoReCa. A self-powered diesel unit is independent of the engine — for long hauls and long idle periods.

The body is a frameless 50/80/100 mm sandwich panel: extruded polystyrene between two skins (clad metal as standard or FRP fibreglass in the premium trim). Edges are trimmed with anodised aluminium, the rear frame is stainless steel and the doors are FRP fibreglass with an isothermal seal. It is the same construction as the COND insulated body.

The price depends on the body size, panel thickness for your duty and the chosen refrigeration unit (road, stand-by or self-powered). Leave a request with your company name, your name and phone number — a manager will price it exactly and contact you.

A typical reefer body with the unit takes from 14 working days. Custom projects on non-standard chassis or multi-temperature builds — 3–6 weeks. The exact date is fixed in the contract after the chassis is measured.

Any light or medium-duty chassis: FAW, Kia Bongo, Hyundai Porter and HD, GAZelle and GAZon Next, JAC, Isuzu, Iveco Daily, Hino, KamAZ. The body and unit are engineered for the dimensions and payload of your vehicle while preserving the factory chassis warranty.

The body carries a 2-year warranty subject to scheduled servicing; the refrigeration unit carries its manufacturer’s warranty. The body is designed for 10–15 years of service, and we service Carrier, Elinge and Kaida units in our own workshop.
