Help maintain cool temperatures in refrigerated and last-mile fleet vehicles

Outpace the heat. Stay cool on the road.

In hot climates, intense sun and scorching pavement can take a toll on your drivers and the valuable cargo they deliver. Maintaining comfortable interior temperatures isn’t just a nice‑to‑have - it’s essential for efficiency and product integrity. 3M™ Cooling Film can help you stay ahead of the heat. This reflective performance film installs quickly on fleet vehicle roofs and uses proprietary technology to reflect solar radiation. The result: interiors that can stay up to 5.5°C (10°F) cooler. A cooler cab means more comfortable drivers, reduces heat exposure to temperature-sensitive goods temperature‑sensitive goods, and positive impact on your operating costs.

  • Come funziona 3M™ Cooling Film:

    Quando si applica  3M™ Cooling Film al tetto di un veicolo, la pellicola aiuta a ridurre l’accumulo di calore direttamente alla fonte.
     

    • La sua superficie altamente riflettente devia oltre l’85% dell’energia solare in ingresso, limitando la quantità di calore che raggiunge il veicolo sottostante.
    • La pellicola presenta inoltre un’elevata emissività termica - superiore al 91% nella finestra atmosferica - che consente di dissipare il calore assorbito allontanandolo dalla superficie e rilasciandolo verso il cielo più freddo.
    • Questo genera un raffreddamento passivo, contribuendo a mantenere gli interni più freschi senza bisogno di energia esterna.
