Conversion specification
Base vehicle: panel van, front- or rear-wheel drive, sliding door on the right, internal combustion engine (ICE)
Delivery code: 00795
The Kerstner chilled goods conversion for the VW Crafter combines the highest insulation performance with consistent practicality – developed and manufactured for everyday use in food and chilled goods transport.
The conversion achieves a K coefficient of below 0.4 W/m²K and is classified as “heavily insulated” under ATP requirements. This is made possible by the seamless connection of all insulation elements – including at the sliding door – without gaps or thermal bridges.
The engine-driven refrigeration system reliably maintains the temperature range down to -20°C throughout the journey.
The polyurethane insulation components are water-repellent, antibacterial and impact-resistant, and meet the requirements of the ATP and HACCP guidelines. The easy-to-clean surface reduces the effort required to maintain hygiene in day-to-day operation.
Thanks to its computer-optimised fit, the conversion provides a usable load volume of 8.5 – 11.5 m³ with unobstructed clearance between the wheel arches, suitable for loading Euro pallets.

Increased door-closing forces: Installing a partition increases the force required to close the doors and can lead to increased sliding-door wear over time. Please also note: If a fixed multi-compartment partition without a passage is installed in the load compartment, the German employers’ liability insurance association (BG) rules require a step at the sliding door, because the partition removes access to the front compartment through the rear doors. According to the BG, the customer may not enter the front compartment without a step and may only load and unload it from outside. Quantity: Default 1, Minimum 1 piece
