The Challenge

The customer needed to add refrigerated delivery capacity without purchasing a finished refrigerated vehicle from inventory. The van would be used for recurring local food-distribution routes with frequent stops and repeated door openings.

The project required a practical balance between refrigeration capacity, usable cargo space, durability, and vehicle payload.

The Solution

Thermobile developed a refrigerated Ford Transit conversion around the customer’s delivery requirements and intended chilled operating range.

The build combined commercial insulation, a washable interior package, and a refrigeration system selected for the vehicle configuration and expected route conditions. The layout was planned to preserve useful cargo capacity while creating a durable temperature-controlled delivery environment.

Build Details

Insulation Package

Commercial-grade insulated cargo compartment designed to reduce heat transfer and support consistent refrigerated delivery conditions.

Interior Package

Washable fiberglass interior surfaces with insulated walls, ceiling, doors, and commercial-grade flooring designed for frequent loading and delivery use.

Custom Options

LED interior lighting, cargo tie-down points, insulated rear and side-door treatment, temperature display, protective interior trim, and configurable cargo organization.

Project Process

The project began with a review of the vehicle, products being transported, desired temperature range, route conditions, and anticipated delivery schedule.

Thermobile then defined the insulation and interior package, refrigeration-system requirements, and custom options.

After installation, the completed cargo area was reviewed for fit, finish, system operation, and accessibility before delivery to the customer.

The Result

The completed Ford Transit was configured as a commercial refrigerated delivery van for recurring chilled-food distribution.

The finished build provided an insulated and washable cargo area, integrated refrigeration equipment, and a practical layout designed around local multi-stop delivery operations.

Testimonial

I had Thermobile install insulation and a refrigeration system on my new Ford Transit 350 HD van, and I’m very satisfied with the results. The quality of work is excellent, and everything is working perfectly. Bo was especially helpful throughout the process—very professional, responsive, and easy to work with. Great service overall, and I highly recommend Thermobile.
