FRP Panels and Rolls for Refrigerated Truck Bodies

FRP Panels and Rolls for Refrigerated Truck Bodies
Product Introduction:
Our FRP sheets and rolls are specifically designed for refrigerated truck bodies and trailer side panels. They are made from high-quality glass fiber reinforced resin (EP) and formed using advanced pultrusion or compression molding processes. The products combine lightweight, high strength, corrosion resistance, weather resistance, thermal insulation, and a smooth surface, making them an ideal alternative to traditional metal materials. They significantly improve the durability and energy efficiency of refrigerated transport equipment.

why choose our products

 

In today's rapidly growing global cold chain logistics industry, refrigerated transporters and vehicle manufacturers face unprecedented pressure to reduce operating costs, improve cargo safety, and extend vehicle lifespan. Traditional materials such as steel, aluminum, and plywood have long been industry standards, but they have inherent drawbacks: excessive weight negatively impacts fuel efficiency, corrosion shortens lifespan, poor moisture resistance leads to a gradual decline in insulation performance, and high maintenance costs erode profit margins.

 

For over two decades, we have focused on providing high-performance glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) sheets and rolls for refrigerated truck bodies and trailer side panels. Our FRP solutions address all the pain points of traditional materials, offering a lightweight, durable, and cost-effective alternative, and are now the preferred choice for leading cold chain brands in North America, Europe, and Australia.

 

 

 

 

Key Advantages

Lightweight & High Strength 

• With a density of only 1.5-2.0 g/cm³, it is 60% lighter than steel, effectively reducing vehicle weight and increasing cargo capacity and fuel economy.

• High tensile and flexural strength, meeting the mechanical performance requirements of complex transportation conditions.

01

Corrosion Resistance

• Resistant to acids, alkalis, salts, and various chemical solvents, suitable for corrosive media commonly encountered in refrigerated transportation, such as disinfectants and seafood residues.

•The surface undergoes special treatment, making it anti-aging and wear-resistant, with a service life of over 10 years.

02

Superior Thermal Insulation

• Low thermal conductivity, combined with PU foam core material, allows the entire compartment to meet extreme temperature control requirements ranging from -40℃ to 60℃.

• Seamless splicing process eliminates cold bridging effects, ensuring cargo quality.

03

Easy Installation

• Standardized sizes available (thickness: customized; width: customized (below 3.4m); length: customized), supporting secondary processing (cutting, drilling, bonding).

• Pre-drilled mounting holes for embedded parts, adapting to mainstream refrigerated truck assembly processes and shortening production cycles.

04

Cost-Effectiveness

• Lower total lifecycle cost than stainless steel and aluminum, with near-zero maintenance costs.

• Superior shock resistance reduces the risk of damage during transport, lowering insurance and maintenance expenses.

05

Application Cases

 

Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Truck Body Panel

European cold chain logistics company

By using FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) panels to renovate refrigerated truck fleets, the weight of the cargo box is reduced by 35%, fuel consumption is reduced by 12%, and cargo damage rate is reduced by 18%.

Application Trends of FRP Sheets in Cold Chain Logistics

Australian seafood transport companies

The seawater corrosion resistance of FRP sheets extends vehicle maintenance cycles to 5 years and reduces overall operating costs by 20%.

FAQ

Q: Does it come with a warranty?

A: We are confident in the quality of our products, which is why we offer an industry-leading 10-year warranty on our FRP sheets and rolls. This warranty covers all material and workmanship defects, including delamination, cracking, and abnormal fading. If your sheets experience any problems during normal use within the warranty period, we will replace them free of charge. This warranty is proof of our confidence in the durability and performance of our products.

Q:Do FRP gel-coated panels meet the requirements for weather resistance in outdoor applications?

A: It is fully suitable for outdoor use and meets all weather-resistance requirements. The premium FRP gel-coat surface undergoes special modification to resist UV-induced aging, ensuring an outdoor service life of over 10–15 years without yellowing, cracking, or chalking. For high-altitude regions with intense UV radiation, a specialized UV-resistant version is available; routine cleaning to remove dust is all that is required, with no additional UV protection needed.

Q: Can FRP gel-coated panels undergo secondary processing-such as drilling, cutting, or bending?

A: Secondary processing is possible; key operational points include: ① Cutting: Use an electric saw or angle grinder, ensuring proper dust protection; ② Drilling: Use a handheld electric drill with an alloy bit, controlling the rotation speed to prevent cracking; ③ Bending: Manual bending is feasible for thicknesses under 3mm, while heating is required for thicknesses exceeding 3mm; ④ Joining: Secure using adhesive or rivets, and ensure proper sealing. Avoid excessive sanding of the gel coat layer to prevent compromising performance.

Q: How should FRP gel-coated panels be maintained on a daily basis?

A:Simple routine maintenance: ① Cleaning: Wipe with clean water or a neutral detergent; do not use stiff-bristled brushes or strong acids/alkalis. ② Inspection: Inspect every six months for outdoor installations and annually for indoor ones; treat minor scratches with a specialized repair agent. ③ Protection: Avoid impacts from heavy objects and scraping by sharp objects to prevent damage to the gel coat layer.
