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 composite panels are one of the representative materials. It plays an important role in reducing vehicle weight, improving transportation efficiency and environmental protection.

Specification of Fiberglass Sandwich Panels

SkinFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Thermoset Plastic)
CFRT (Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic)
CorePET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) foam.(Density: 60-300kg/m³)
PP (Polypropylene ) Honeycomb. (Density: 80-120kg/m³)
Plywood.(Birch, pine, poplar, eucalyptus, oak, etc.)

Material Selection

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Application of Recyclable Fiberglass Sheets in Dry Freight Truck Bodies

CFRT (Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic) laminated sheets can replace FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic), aluminum sheets and other materials as the surface material of composite panels because it is lighter and more durable. Due to the properties of thermoplastic materials, it can also be recycled, which is difficult to do with thermosetting FRP. MORE
