This customization capability allows the HOWO refrigerated truck to be adapted to different road conditions, climates, cargo types, and cold-chain logistics requirements.
Why Choose a HOWO Refrigerated Truck?
1. SINOTRUK HOWO Chassis
The vehicle is built on the proven SINOTRUK HOWO commercial truck platform, providing a practical foundation for refrigerated cargo transportation.
HOWO trucks are widely used in international commercial vehicle markets, while their established parts and service networks can make maintenance and spare-parts sourcing more convenient for fleet operators in many overseas markets.
Depending on the selected chassis, customers can specify different engine, transmission, wheelbase, drive, steering, and emission configurations.
2. Thermo King Refrigeration Unit
To maintain cold-chain conditions during transportation, the truck can be equipped with a Thermo King refrigeration unit.
Thermo King is a well-known transport refrigeration equipment brand used in temperature-controlled logistics. Depending on the application, the refrigeration system can be selected for chilled or frozen cargo transportation.
Typical applications include:
The final refrigeration capacity and temperature range should be matched to the cargo volume, insulation thickness, ambient temperature, door-opening frequency, and required transport temperature.
3. Heavy-Duty Protection Package
For customers operating on rough roads or in demanding environments, this HOWO refrigerated truck can be equipped with additional external protection equipment.
Heavy-Duty Front Bull Bar
A heavy-duty steel bull bar can provide additional protection for the front bumper area, grille, headlights, and other front-end components against minor impacts and road debris.
Full Window and Headlight Mesh Guards
Heavy-duty metal mesh guards can be installed around selected windows and headlights to help protect the cab from flying gravel, branches, road debris, and other external hazards.
The exact protection configuration can be customized according to local road conditions and export requirements.
Insulated Refrigerated Cargo Body
The refrigerated cargo box is designed to reduce heat transfer between the cargo compartment and the external environment.
The standard configuration can use high-density polyurethane (PU) insulation foam between inner and outer FRP panels. Other body materials and structures can be customized according to the required thermal performance and operating environment.
Main Refrigerated Body Features
The insulation structure, refrigeration capacity, and cargo-box design should be selected as a complete system rather than considered separately.
Hydraulic Tail Lift for Efficient Loading
A hydraulic tail lift can be installed at the rear of the HOWO refrigerated truck to simplify loading and unloading of pallets, boxes, frozen products, and other heavy cargo.
A typical tail-lift capacity can range from 1,000 kg to 1,500 kg, depending on the selected equipment.
Benefits include:
A remote control can also be provided depending on the tail-lift configuration.
Side Access Door
A side access door provides an additional loading and unloading point for partial cargo deliveries.
This is particularly useful for distribution routes where the truck makes multiple stops and the driver needs to access selected cargo without opening the entire rear door.
The side door can be equipped with a safety lock and thermal sealing structure.

HOWO Refrigerated Truck Applications
1. Food and Agricultural Cold Chain
Fresh Meat and Seafood
Refrigerated trucks can maintain low temperatures required for transporting meat, seafood, and other perishable products. Frozen products may require approximately -18°C or below, depending on the cargo and applicable regulations.
Dairy Products and Eggs
Milk, yogurt, cheese, butter, and other temperature-sensitive dairy products can be transported within their required chilled temperature range, commonly around 2°C to 8°C, depending on the specific product.
Fruits and Vegetables
Many fresh fruits and vegetables require controlled temperatures to slow respiration and maintain freshness. Typical transport temperatures can range from approximately 0°C to 15°C, depending on the crop.
Frozen and Quick-Frozen Foods
Frozen meat, ice cream, frozen pastries, ready meals, and other frozen products generally require low-temperature transportation, often around -18°C or below according to product requirements.
2. Pharmaceutical and Medical Logistics
Refrigerated trucks can also be configured for selected pharmaceutical and medical transportation applications.
Vaccines and Biological Products
Certain vaccines and biological products require controlled temperature conditions, commonly 2°C to 8°C, with appropriate temperature monitoring and validated transport procedures.
Blood Products and Temperature-Sensitive Medicines
Specific blood products and medicines may require chilled or frozen transportation. The required temperature depends on the product manufacturer's storage and transport specifications.
For pharmaceutical transportation, the refrigeration system, temperature monitoring, validation, and regulatory compliance should be specified according to the applicable pharmaceutical cold-chain requirements.
3. Chemicals and Industrial Materials
Temperature-controlled trucks can be used for selected temperature-sensitive chemicals, industrial materials, adhesives, resins, and other products whose performance or stability can be affected by excessive heat.
The transport configuration must be determined according to the chemical's safety data sheet, required transport temperature, and applicable hazardous-material regulations.
4. Flowers and Plants
Fresh-cut flowers and certain plants can benefit from controlled-temperature transportation.
Depending on the flower species and logistics requirements, temperatures of approximately 4°C to 10°C may be used to slow wilting and preserve freshness.
