MANUFACTURING PROCEDURE OF INSULATION VAN IsoVan®
The IsoVan® insulations of the loading area are of Greek origin and are manufactured in the industrial facilities of our company, in the industrial area of Sindos.
The parts (panels) that compose the construction, are similar to the classic panels of the refrigerated bodies, with all the advantages they provide (perfect performance with light weight, excellent durability and tightness in time, robustness, etc.), and of course with all the internal reinforcements required for each application. They are created by a special press for construction of insulated panels, while their final shape is shaped by special machine tools and molds, which are essentially copied in the loading area of each Van, always guided by the maximum possible use of space and of course the excellent thermal insulation.
These panels have versions of such a configuration, so that they fit perfectly together, but they can also be removed, in case of possible repair of the car, in the future. Thus the wall of insulation on each side of the car includes, on the side of the load compartment, white polyester sheet, 2mm thick, reinforced with woven robin for greater impact resistance, and immediately after polyurethane (PU) block for frozen operating temperatures, or extruded polystyrene (XPS) as an insulating means, with the fitting wooden or metal reinforcements, depending on its side and needs. The thicknesses of the panels range from 50mm up to 100mm, depending on the application. In this way all the sides of the loading area are covered, all the metal surfaces, so that we do not have any thermal bridges, while especially for the doors, molds with insulation are placed which can be removed in case of possible repair. In addition, for the transport of frozen products, the use of insulation from polyurethane blocks (PU), a second frame is created for the rear and side doors, where double rubber profiles are placed for maximum thermal insulation, always in accordance with the specifications of the ATP agreement.
The floor is specially reinforced to withstand large and heavy loads such as pallets, while the final surface can be polyester, white or gray, smooth or non-slip texture or aluminum, depending on the desire of the customer.
At the same time, the floor and each side are joined with a polyester joint (for complete waterproofing), 1 ~ 2 gutters are opened, for the drainage of the cabin liquids, while stainless steel protective corners are placed on the doorstep.
Finally, for the unimpeded installation and operation of the refrigerated unit, in the roof panel but also in the bulkhead, the fitting recessed reinforcements and recessed hose channel will be placed on the driver's back, respectively.
With the manufacturing procedure and the construction materials we described, we manage to build a unique space – refrigerated chamber, inside the loading space of each Van, with excellent cooling conditions for your goods (maintenance or freezing temperatures), but without the refrigerated space coming in contact with the Van frame and the problems that this may entail in the long run.
Of course, all the materials and the manufacturing procedures of the insulation, are fully exchanged in the need of the health service, as well as in the most modern European specifications of transport of sensitive products according to ATP.
