LIGHT WEIGHT TRANSPORT BODIES
Schultz is now offering the very latest in body building technology to construct light weight transport bodies.
By leveraging advanced European body building engineering practices, the latest transport bodies from Schultz offer:
- Weight Saving
- Simplified Design
- *Organic Material Free Construction
- Improved Thermal Properties
- Elimination of Thermal Bridges
- Stiffer Panels by 30%
*By removing organic materials like plywood, the risk of product failure due to moisture ingress is totally removed.
The panel technology employed in our construction method will provide lighter, stiffer bodies compared to the traditional materials used in current body construction.
CONSTRUCTION
The panels are built using a combination of high-quality materials and advanced engineering techniques.
The exterior is a UV-resistant gel coat, similar to what swimming pools are built from. This is proven to be low maintenance, UV resistant & long-lasting.
The materials used for the interior surface finish have also been chosen for its low maintenance properties. This material has high resistance to acid and alkaline residues produced from various payloads.
floor
We offer several Floor Options:
- The Traditional - 2 mm ‘Rice grain’ pattern checker plate flooring with a recessed 250 mm high alloy kickboard around the walls.
- Bacteria resistant heavy duty vinyl sheeting
- Industrial epoxy floor system. This is a sprayed-on system that includes the moulded kickboard, no joins, no leaks and a non-skid surface. This system is extremely easy to maintain and repair.
MAIN BODY
The main body of the panel is where the real magic happens.
The core is ‘sandwiched’ between layers of GRP. Various densities of core are placed in pre-engineered.
The core is a thermoplastic recyclable product, high resistance to chemicals, strong and thermal.
By using this advanced material, we can reduce panel thickness, but maintain thermal & structural properties required in the transport industry.
HARDWARE
We manufacture our own high quality hardware or we use a good quality all Stainless steel hardware from reliable sources.
Side & rear doors feature commercial grade lock systems with internal emergency lock release as a standard feature.
All hardware is installed in a way that it can be easily replaced if damaged.

All panels are constructed from PET foam core, with a Gel coated GRP skin either side of this structural core.
All panels are bonded using Polymer adhesives & Stainless-steel fasteners are used throughout the construction.
Floors are constructed to form a structural assembly, with no organic materials [plywood] used, the entire structure is free from any form of deterioration, wet rot, fungal attack.
PET core does not suffer from thermal aging & structural degradation, as happens with PU & EPS foam cored panels over time, the service life using this system is indefinite. PET is a recycled material.
All panels have 100 % PET core throughout – no thermal bridging is possible as happens on other products built with any number of indifferent materials.
