THERMOGUARD
Patented Temperature-Control Technology Found Nowhere Else
Thermal Protection
Keep Moisture Out and Insulating Gasses In
ThermoGuard was developed by our engineers as a virtually impenetrable liner designed to maximize thermal efficiency and significantly reduce outgassing. The result? Insulation that stays stronger, longer—protecting the performance of your Everest trailer or Alpine truck body throughout its lifetime.
This helps reduce cooling unit run time, preserves valuable cooling capacity, and prevents water weight gain—delivering greater fuel efficiency and enhanced productivity mile after mile.
Thermal Protection
Our multi-layered design includes a foil metal barrier layer within polypropylene and glass fibers to improve thermal efficiency and protect against water weight gain.
Anti-Microbial Solution
Our refrigerated solutions come equipped with Microban® that provides anti-microbial protection built-in for the life of the trailer.
Odor Protection
Microban technology also helps to eliminate any potential odors that may arise by working to prevent the growth of odor-causing bacteria on your equipment lining.
“When we were hauling garlic using a different trailer brand, we couldn’t haul anything else in those trailers. We’d have to wash it inside and out three or four times. and the smell would still be there.
With the Everest trailers with Microban, we wash it once and the garlic smell is gone.”
— Jazz Sidhu, DTL Transport, Chief Financial Officer and Director of Operation
Proven Test
Where many permeable trailer liners allow for damaging outgassing, ThermoGuard’s multi-layered design includes a foil metal barrier layer within polypropylene and glass fibers. This helps seal the insulation to significantly reduce degradation.
Independent third-party laboratory evaluations and quantifiable customer experiences point to the same conclusion —ThermoGuard provides cost and other savings, extending the useful life of refrigerated trailers.
