Box Truck Panels

Home » Truck & Trailer Solutions » Truck & Trailer Composite Panels

Box truck panels are an important part of the box truck structure. They give the truck its characteristic box shape. TOPOLOGROUP supplies composite panel kits for building various types of box trucks.

  • Refrigerated trucks.
  • Dry freight trucks.
  • Food trucks.
  • Ambulance trucks.
  • Furniture trucks.
  • Day-old chicken transport trucks.
  • Horse transport trucks.
  • Medical trucks.
  • Aircraft catering trucks.
  • Workshop trucks, etc.

01. Modular Composite Panels

The box truck body is assembled from several composite panels, which simplifies the assembly work for the operator. Complex welding work is omitted and the installation can be completed using bolts and glue. After the edge profile is installed, the connection is strong and unbreakable.

02. Lightweight & High-strength Materials

As the market favors lightweight trucks, traditional single materials can no longer meet performance requirements. The use of new composite materials has become a trend. Among them, fiberglass/aluminum composite panels are one of the representative materials. It plays an important role in reducing vehicle weight, improving transportation efficiency and environmental protection.

Material Selection

PET Foam Sandwich Panels
  • Features: Closed-cell PET foam is lightweight and has high rigidity. This material is recyclable, and in terms of environmental protection, recycled PET material is very popular in the market.
  • Applications: Front panels, door panels, side panels, roof panels, and partitions.
XPS Foam Sandwich Panels
  • Features: XPS foam has low water absorption, excellent thermal insulation performance, and a certain hardness. It is an ideal choice for building dry freight truck bodies in cold regions.
  • Applications: Front panels, door panels, side panels, roof panels, floor panels.
PU Sandwich Panels
  • Features: PU (polyurethane) foam is not only light in weight, but also has excellent thermal insulation effect.
  • Application: Front panels, door panels, side panels, top panels and partitions.
PVC Sandwich Panels
  • Features: PVC (polyvinyl chloride) foam has balanced comprehensive performance, and performs well in compressive strength, thermal insulation, waterproof, flame retardant and other properties.
  • Application: Front panel, door panel, side panel, top panel and partition.
Polypropylene Honeycomb Sandwich Panels
  • Features: Honeycomb structure thermoplastic polypropylene plastic, which provides a high strength-to-weight ratio and is a representative material for lightweighting.
  • Applications: Front panels, door panels, side panels, roof panels, floor panels.
Plywood Sandwich Panels
  • Features: Plywood is an organic material with a wide range of sources. It is made of multiple layers of veneer under high temperature and high pressure, so it has very high strength. And its price is relatively low, making it an economical choice.
  • Applications: Front panels, door panels, side panels, roof panels, partition panels.
