Refrigerated transport: efficient fresh or frozen product delivery

Transporting fresh or/and frozen produce calls for extremely precise temperature control, in line with traceability and hygiene requirements. Renault Trucks meets those needs with its range of refrigerated vans and trucks and services specially designed for refrigerated transport. Our teams are available to support and advise you, so you can optimise profitability and control costs.

Using the right refrigerated truck configuration is one of the most effective ways to improve delivery profitability. The goal is to maximise payload and loading volume while keeping the vehicle agile and easy to manoeuvre in urban and regional operations. To cover different refrigerated body lengths and operating needs, manufacturers typically offer multiple wheelbases and chassis variants. In the refrigerated distribution segment, the D range is designed to support a broad set of bodywork lengths and configurations, making it well suited for fresh and chilled deliveries where the right body size and turning capability both matter. 

Specialist support is usually available to help select a specification that matches body-builder constraints, with documentation such as chassis drawings for the ordered configuration and dedicated technical assistance to help reduce body-build lead time. For refrigerated transport, vehicles can generally be configured to work with a wide variety of refrigeration units installed by body-builders, including electric solutions. 

Depending on specification, refrigerated trucks may offer features such as power interfaces (for example PTO or electrical generator capability) and robust battery solutions to support reliable temperature control. The result is a refrigerated work tool that is ready when needed and designed to maintain consistent performance in daily operations

Thanks to their reduced width and with one of the best turning circles on the market, our vehicles offer easy manoeuvrability. It makes navigating through narrow or congested streets a breeze for delivery drivers.

Reduce and anticipate vehicle immobilisation

An immobilised truck means fewer deliveries and therefore a loss of income. Drawing on our experience and know-how, we are able to provide you with the most reliable vehicles. Our Start&Drive maintenance contracts are available to support you and ensure maximum availability of your work tool, whilst adapting to your specific refrigerated transport needs.

Driver safety

To ensure deliveries are made in good time, driver safety and comfort are key.

• To avoid any accidents when drivers access or egress their vehicles, our trucks are fitted with non-slip steps and three-point ergonomic handles.
• Regarding active safety, several systems are in place to assist the driver and prevent accidents - such as lane departure warnings and automatic emergency braking.
• 90 degrees openin doors: for easier cab access​.
• Windscreen access steps: anti-slip access steps designes to facilitate windscreen servicing.​
• Automatic emergency braking system: possible collision warning followed by braking to bring the vehicle to complete standstill, without driver’s intervention.
• Side detection with braking: to reduce risk of severe side collisions when turning at intersections.
