The fiberglass truck body is lighter and stronger than the general metal body, and the body for different purposes uses fiberglass composite panels of different materials. TOPOLO supplies fiberglass composite panels with foam and honeycomb cores for truck bodies.
The Advantages of Fiberglass Truck Body
- Light in weight: 40% lighter than metal body.
- It is good for strength and long life.
- Non-corrosion, non-pollution, anti-brine, acid, and soda-resisting
- The panel used for the truck body was constructed in a type of sandwich, for higher impact and compression strength.
About Truck Body Panel Materials
Refrigerated truck bodies mostly use XPS (extruded polystyrene), and PU (Polyurethane) foam as the core material, and dry freight trucks mostly use PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) foam or PP (Polypropylene) honeycomb panels.
