CURTAINSIDE VANS 

CITROËN CURTAINSIDE 

If your business would benefit from covered bodywork, including protection from the weather and a high-volume load space, but you need more loading flexibility than a solid-sided bodywork conversion can offer, then a Citroën Relay Ready to Run Curtainside conversion could be the answer. Citroën’s Ready to Run Curtainside’s big advantage is that not only can it be loaded through the full-height, wide opening, rear doors, but also through the heavy-duty PVC curtains that make up the body sides. These can be positioned so that the body can be loaded, by forklift, from either side at both the front and back of the load area.

Two body lengths are provided, based on the Relay L3 and L4 Single Cab chassis. L4 models offer up to 20m³ of load space. Using the standard weight body, L3 models offer payloads up to 965kgs*. All models are equipped with an LED interior light and external side marker lights. A kick strip fitted to the lower edge of the front bulkhead helps guard against damage.

 

*Payload (excluding driver) is calculated including oil, water, lubricants, tools, spare wheel and 90 per cent full fuel tank. When calculating the payload, an average figure for the driver is 75kg (Please note: drivers’ weights will vary). Additional passengers and accessories must be taken into account. It is the operator’s responsibility that the plate weights are not exceeded. Please note: Masses and Dimensions are subject to 8% engineering tolerances.

STRONG AND DURABLE BODY 

The Ready to Run Curtainside body’s construction adopts similar methods to the Luton and Box bodies in the range. A galvanised steel and aluminium frame carries composite body panels, a construction method chosen for durability and optimum payload. The resulting payload can be increased further, by up to 80kgs when the optional lightweight construction is selected.

Heavy-duty treated plywood flooring also plays a part in optimising payload, while providing a durable load floor. The body can be loaded from the rear through the “barn doors”, fitted with externally mounted locks, or from either side.

For the road, the side curtains are closed and tensioned both vertically and horizontally. This gives a smooth sided body with taut, weather-tight sides. If easy loading from either side by forklift is a priority, the Ready to Run Curtainside body offers a highly effective solution.

Each Ready to Run Curtainside body is fitted with an aerodynamic “Luton” pod above the Relay cab. Like the Luton and Low-Floor Luton models in the range, the Curtainside’s Luton pod gives additional storage space over the cab, while also helping to improve airflow around the front of the body to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. Citroën Ready to Run Curtainside models are available in five solid cab colours and two metallic colours.
