Innovation is part of our culture, and extensive changes to details are constantly being made:
| IMPROVEMENT |
DATE FIRST IMPLEMENTED
|
|
| » Epoxy
paint undercoating on sub-frame steelwork |
2006
|
|
| » Polished coaming rail infill to improve the look of the vehicle |
2006
|
|
| |
|
|
» Non-slip
glass spheres in the epoxy floor laminate, which is far more robust than the previous garnet
|
2007
|
|
| » Multi-layer ultra-thin scuff
bands, which are very high impact and gouge resistant. |
2007
|
|
| |
|
|
| » iceBlock divider for multi-temp bodies |
2008 |
 |
| » Altered glass type and layup in the body structure, allowing less print through, weight reduction and improved body stiffness |
2008
|
|
| » Redesigned
steel front end and dolly, which has overcome almost all cracking issues |
2008 |
|
| » Non-leak easy-to-operate effluent
valves for stockTake bodies |
2008 |
|
| |
|
|
» New glass fabric type in the epoxy floor, creating a more even and robust laminate
|
2009 |
|
| » Light
weight core on all doors, removing about 20kg on a typical door panel.
This hugely reduces stress on hinges, and has no ply to rot out. |
2009 |
|
| » Steel
beam under side door when it is placed far forward, which significantly
reduces side wall cracking when the vehicle is overloaded |
2009 |
|
» Stiffer and branded landing leg
|
2009 |
  |
| » New
floor ply layout with new fibre type, improving the support at the joints by 50% |
