Cargo area features

Evaporator protective frame

Damage to the evaporator owing to driving motion or the vehicle being struck can easily be avoided thanks to its protective frame.

Tubular tracks on the ceiling

Makes transporting meat easy! All reinforcements are integrated in the structure. Our standard tubular tracks come equipped with connecting end pieces, anti-slip and safety catches.

Aluminium floor pan

Inner floor with aluminium surface (either pitted or barley corn surface). Skirting board welded  to be watertight in order to have a closed pan.

Door and Portal Features

ColdKeeper

Refrigeration bulkhead opens electrically via a pull switch. It can be closed automatically by programming in a certain time which means it all happens without anyone having to physically do anything, thus providing a high degree of security and reliability. The opening can be adjusted to be on the right or left side.

Sliding sectional door

Sectional door is easy to operate and even simpler to open, thus making temperature control even easier.  Especially suitable for ramps and temperature airlocks, where there is simply no room for door leaves. Available for fresh or frozen food service.

Rear video system

To ensure safe and accurate backing up of vehicles, we offer powerful and reliable video systems. A number of our vehicle models make it possible to have the camera signal installed on the monitor seen by the driver in the cabin.

Hydraulic platforms / tail lifts

Hydraulic platforms are the logical choice when loading or unloading pallets or containers with wheels.
For refrigeration vehicles with temperatures of up to ca. +5°C the platform can be installed as a rear lock without having separate door leaves. This makes loading even more efficient since no doors need be opened. If the platform is large enough, the tailgate can also be dispensed with.
A 2/3-wide hydraulic platform combined with a tri-sectional rear door allows access via one  of the sections to the loading area without using the platform. Tail lifts which can be lowered also allow for opening the doors without using the hydraulic platform. Makes driving to loading ramps easy.

Insulating Curtain

Insulating slated blinds placed behind the door leafs minimizes changes in temperature when the door is opened. Sturdy and able to be adjusted cross-wise (see image)available. Ribbed contouring of the slates prevents them from sticking together.

Rear portal with three or four partitions

A rear door partitioned into three allows one to enter through the middle of the truck body, thus minimizing temperature changes. Naturally one, two or all three partitions can be opened, as needed.
Our version with four partitions has the advantage of easily raising the middle partition since no locks needed to be opened. The middle partition takes up very little room owing to its narrow shape and thus do not stand in the way when opened.

CoolerLock central locking system

Especially for distribution services and pharmaceutical logistics which typically include a lot of stops in their routes is it important to have a reliable system in place to prevent theft- particularly when valuable cargo is involved. Just press the button and all doors are securely locked- both of the cab and the truck body.

Long-lasting steel impact protection with wheels

Impact protection bumpers made of an elastomer are subject to a lot of wear and tear owing to the fact that they are there to absorb all sorts of bumps and shearing movement. Our bumpers equipped with wheels prevent the bumper from rubbing against the ramp which can occur with the raising and lowering of the vehicle when loading or unloading cargo. The latest model of this KRESS product is made to be especially robust and last a long time due to our purposely avoiding use of rubber elements.in its construction The wheels are placed on solid steel springs.
