Front and rear attachment points in all four corners make sure the Cadet is firmly bolted to the pick-up box; Johnson's unique mounting system is very secure and low maintenance.
Our smooth composite exterior finish comes in Dupont #817 standard finish color. However, customers can extend company branding to the Cadet truck body with Johnson's custom color gel coat option and decal installation.
One of the many benefits to composite truck bodies are Johnson's fiberglass door jambs which contribute to thermal efficiency because they do not conduct or transfer heat.
The framework for wall and roof panels is made of welded steel that is completely covered in foam insulation and fiberglass. A strong, composite thermal break is placed between the steel frame and the interior wall and roof panels to create a non-conductive barrier between structural components and interior panels.
The walls and ceiling of the Cadet are lined with fiberglass composite, and every seam is glassed and sealed by experienced technicians, to lock out moisture.
Johnson pioneered the use of gel-coated, seamless fiberglass reinforced plastic panels in refrigerated truck body design. Flat molds are used to make the fiberglass-reinforced panels that combine to make the refrigerated truck body. The result is a seamless composite exterior with no seams or rivets for heat or moisture to pass through.
