Repair of vans and insulated box bodies in Almaty
All types of truck bodies on any chassis are repaired. Panels and components are made in-house, so the repair does not wait for deliveries and is done to factory standard.
Quote is based on body, chassis and temperature range.
Geometry restoration, replacement of hinges, locks and hardware. Doors close tight again, without sagging.
Repair spare parts — from our catalogue: body components and hardware (locks, hinges, seals, buffers).
A worn seal lets in air and moisture, and the refrigerated body loses cold. A three-chamber profile is fitted.
Replacing swollen plywood and restoring the load deck. Optionally — chequered aluminium that is not afraid of moisture.
Fixing leaks at panel joints, seams and fasteners. The body is dry again in rain, snow and at the wash.
Restoring outer and inner cladding after impacts and pallet-loading wear.
Replacement of delaminated and damaged panels. The panels are made in-house, so the strength and the seal of the body are fully restored.
The usual picture on steel doors: the skin rusts along the edges and around the hardware, and the door loses both its seal and its appearance. That is why doors on COND bodies are made of FRP — it does not corrode at all.
The same symptom means different things on an insulated body and on a refrigerated one, so the scope of work is set by inspection, not by the name of the fault.
| What you notice | Usual cause | What is done |
|---|---|---|
| The body has stopped holding temperature | a worn seal around the doors or wet insulation inside the panel | the seal profile is replaced with a three-chamber one; if the insulation is wet, the damaged panels are replaced |
| The doors close with force and there is a gap | the geometry of the door opening is out and the hinges and locks are worn | the geometry is restored and the hinges, locks and hardware are replaced |
| Water inside the body after rain or washing | panel joints, a seam or a roof fastening have opened up | the joints, seams and fastenings are sealed |
| The floor gives underfoot and the plywood has swollen | moisture has got into the decking through the seams or the sill | the decking is replaced and the load-bearing part restored; ribbed aluminium, which does not absorb moisture, is available as an option |
| A panel has bulged or delaminated | an impact during loading, or the insulation inside the panel getting wet | the whole panel is replaced — a local patch does not restore the seal |
| Rust along the door edges and around the hardware | the metal door skin corrodes from moisture and road salt | the skin is restored; on new bodies FRP fibreglass is fitted instead of metal |

Panels, profile and components are made in-house, so a repair does not wait for deliveries.
Isothermal, dry freight, refrigerated, curtainside — on any chassis.
A photograph of the damage sent by WhatsApp makes it possible to give a price guide before the vehicle arrives.
The repair follows the same technology as building the bodies — with a warranty.
“Termobudka” is the everyday name for an isothermal or refrigerated body. The repair is the same for both: the damaged section of panel is opened up, the soaked insulation is replaced, new lining is fitted and the seal of the envelope is restored.
Wet insulation is the main reason an insulated body stops holding temperature while the refrigeration unit is in good order: water displaces the air in the cells and the panel starts conducting heat. A patch over such a section will not restore the temperature — the panel has to be opened.
The rear frame after a loading dock: broken corners, sagging doors, a torn seal. A side panel after gates and posts. A floor pressed through by pallets. Skin delaminating along the bottom edge, where the panel is permanently wet.
Send a photo of the damage on WhatsApp and we will give you the scope of work before the vehicle arrives: it is usually clear at once whether a panel insert will do or a whole section has to be replaced.
