Understand refrigerated vans in generalKerstner vehicle pages
These vehicle pages show specific Kerstner solutions. Final design always depends on the goods, temperature range, payload, route profile and required equipment.
Typical applications
For refrigerated vans, key factors include temperature range, door openings, stationary periods, cargo space, payload and loading, as well as whether the priority is chilled goods, frozen goods, pharmaceutical transport or electric refrigeration.
Pharmaceutical transport vehicles
For pharmaceuticals, laboratory logistics and sensitive healthcare goods, Kerstner assesses the base vehicle, temperature window, interior insulation, refrigeration system, stationary periods, door openings and required documents for each project. This creates a solution suited to actual use rather than a generic conversion.

Frequently asked questions
The Sprinter VS30 is generally converted for chilled and frozen goods transport. The eSprinter provides the fully electric option. The right variant depends on goods, temperature range, payload and route profile. Available wheelbases are 3,665 mm, 4,325 mm and 4,325 mm with overhang. All wheelbases have a high roof.
Yes. The battery-electric eSprinter can be converted for chilled goods transport, with ePTO for the refrigeration system and optional 230-V stationary refrigeration. It is particularly suited to low-emission urban routes. Refrigeration energy demand depends on factors including outside temperature, temperature setpoint and door openings. We tailor the design to your route profile.
Both. The Sprinter VS30 is available for chilled and frozen goods transport. Insulation and refrigeration capacity are designed around the required temperature range and daily door openings.
The VS30 can use belt drive or electric refrigeration depending on requirements; the eSprinter’s refrigeration runs electrically via ePTO. The choice depends on the base vehicle, stationary periods and desired stationary refrigeration.
ePTO (electric power take-off) supplies the eSprinter’s refrigeration system from the vehicle battery, without a separate combustion engine. Refrigerated transport therefore remains fully electric; optional 230-V stationary refrigeration maintains temperature while parked.
Kühltransporter
Der Mercedes-Benz Sprinter ist eine bewährte Basis für größere Kühltransporter im Frischdienst und, je nach Ausführung, auch für anspruchsvollere Temperaturanforderungen. Kerstner stimmt Kühlanlage, Innenisolation und Praxisausstattung auf den täglichen Einsatz ab.
