1968-2008 40 years leading “the way of cold”
40 years of continuous activity in the field of refrigerated and
isothermal bodies is a record in duration; in these last years a
special effort in ideas and technology have been offered to the
customer who has helped
Cold Car
to grow until today.
Cold Car
has reached the whole World becoming in a short time the leader

Cold Car
has run on the road of innovation, technology, solidity and efficiency.
Cold Car
represents the best guide for what concerns mobile refrigeration, the
referring point to follow in the solutions for bodies meant for the
distribution of foodstuff.
Such an experience has given in time long lasting bodies with a higher
efficiency. The latest restyling has given to the project a new
dynamic image that has allowed to become a worldwide leader in the
production.
