What Problems Do Refrigerated Van Strip Curtains Solve?

Refrigerated vehicles lose temperature quickly every time doors are opened.

This leads to:

  • Cold air escaping during deliveries
  • Increased fuel and refrigeration costs
  • Temperature instability in transit
  • Reduced product shelf life
  • Condensation and moisture build-up
  • Dust and pest ingress during loading stops
  • Overworking of refrigeration units

 

Refrigerated van strip curtains act as a flexible thermal barrier that helps maintain a stable internal environment without restricting access.

 

Best Use Cases

Ideal for:

  • Refrigerated delivery vans
  • Cold chain transport vehicles
  • Chilled trailers and box trucks
  • Food distribution vehicles
  • Pharmaceutical transport
  • Catering and meal delivery fleets
  • Multi-drop refrigerated logistics operations

 

Why Choose Hook-On Refrigerated Strip Curtains?

About the Rail System

Hook-On is a classic industrial strip curtain rail system designed for ease of use and durability.

Manufactured from 430-grade stainless steel, the system is ideal for refrigerated and hygiene-sensitive environments where cleanliness and corrosion resistance matter.

Each PVC strip is fitted with a metal plate set that simply hooks on and off the rail, making installation and replacement fast and straightforward.

 

Fitting Information

Rails can be:

  • Face fitted
  • Soffit (underside) fitted

 

Using pre-drilled M6 fixing holes.

Please note:

  • Fixings are not included and must be supplied by the installer
  • Rails are not self-supporting
  • Rails must be fixed to a structurally sound surface across the full opening span

 

About the PVC

Standard clear PVC is the industry standard for refrigerated environments.

It provides:

  • High clarity for safe loading and unloading
  • Minimal light distortion
  • Flexible movement for personnel and trolley access
  • Easy trimming for bespoke vehicle openings

 

Strips are supplied in stock lengths and can be cut to size for precise fitting.

 

Key Performance Benefits

  • Highly flexible industrial-grade PVC
  • High impact resistance for frequent use
  • Helps reduce noise transfer
  • Cost-effective refrigeration efficiency upgrade
  • UV stabilised to reduce degradation over time
  • Manufactured from reputable UK-sourced materials

 

Strip Overlap

200mm strips / 36% overlap

Recommended for openings up to 2500mm high

This overlap ensures a balance between:

  • temperature retention
  • ease of movement
  • fast loading access

 

Installation Guide for Our Van PVC Curtains

  1. Measure refrigerated vehicle opening
  2. Select correct kit width
  3. Fix stainless steel Hook-On rail system
  4. Attach pre-fitted PVC strip sets
  5. Check alignment and overlap coverage

 

Installation time:

Typically 30–60 minutes depending on vehicle size.

 

Hanging Tip

PVC strips are supplied rolled.

On first installation, some curling at the base may occur. This is normal and will settle naturally over time.

To improve results:

  • Unroll strips before installation
  • Leave flat overnight if possible
  • Reverse roll if needed
  • Apply gentle heat in cold conditions
