What we do
Vans
The Paneltex range of lightweight N1 vehicle bodywork and van conversions starts with insulation of the smallest vehicles on the roads and works up through long wheelbase, high-roof vans to 3.5T box bodies for urban delivery cycles.
Trucks
Our temperature-controlled N2 and N3 vehicles can be some of the most striking products built by Paneltex. Ranging from 3.5T - 26T, with multiple options and configurations available, the scope for finding the perfect vehicles for any operation is almost unlimited.
Trailers
Paneltex trailer chassis are manufactured at our specialist fabrication facility in Lincolnshire. On offer are various trailer chassis which can be built upon with refrigerated or specialised Paneltex bodywork, alongside some specific Paneltex trailers, such as our own walking-floor trailer.
Specialised Vehicles
At Paneltex, we have spent many years cultivating an innovative and inquisitive atmosphere in our design, engineering and production departments. This has developed into an unrivalled capability to produce bespoke, highly specialised vehicles and systems.
Cold Storage Units
The first ever product built by Paneltex, in our first production facility in Hull, was a portable cold storage unit. Since then, we have spent 25 years developing and enhancing the high quality of these units, making portable cold stores one of our most highly-regarded products.
Electric Vehicles
For the last decade, we at Paneltex have been producing and developing our own battery electric vehicles. Based upon a 7.5T or 11T Isuzu chassis, these vehicles are converted in-house by our electrical designers and have been on the roads in the UK since 2008.
