  • Less noise on the road: no more bare metal sound box
Load area lining in a van
Every trip leaves its marks

A load floor that lasts for years, however hard you load

Every machine you slide in, every brick that tips over: your bare load floor takes it all. After two years it looks as if it is ten years old, and you see that again in the trade-in price.

Made-to-measure floor and wall lining absorbs those knocks day after day. The lining protects against wear for years and increases the resale value of your van.

Floor and wall lining in a van
Rust stops at the lining

The paint stays intact, so rust gets no chance

One deep scratch down to the bare metal, and the countdown begins. Moisture creeps in, rust takes hold and quietly eats away at the value of your van.

With a closed floor panel and wall panels, your load never touches the bodywork directly. The original paint stays untouched, season after season. That makes protecting the load area in your van not an annual maintenance job, but a one-off job that keeps paying off. The lining stops at the wheel arch, so that needs its own housing: read how to protect wheel arches in your van.

Load area lining in a van
Quiet, sleek and professional

Quieter driving and a load area that shows craftsmanship

A bare load area is a sound box: you can hear every tool three streets away. And if the customer is watching while you unload, the first thing they see is those dented, scratched walls.

Lining dampens the sound and gives your load area a sleek, well-kept look. Your van is your business card, on the inside too: a protected load area shows craftsmanship before you even open your tool case.

Plywood or made to measure?

Why a loose sheet of plywood won't save your van

Many tradespeople lay a sheet of plywood and an old mat in the load area themselves. Understandable, but loose sheets slide about, moisture creeps underneath and along the edges the walls and wheel arches stay unprotected.

Made-to-measure lining fits seamlessly around wheel arches and anchoring points, stays put and keeps moisture out. That way you protect the load area in your van once and properly, and then you don't give it a thought for years.

All your questions answered

Frequently asked questions about protecting the load area in your van

What does it cost to protect the load area in your van?

The price of floor and wall lining depends on three factors: the size of your van, your choice of material and the composition of the protection.

  • Size: a compact L1H1 needs less panelling than a large L3H3.
  • Material: the lining is matched to what you load every day.
  • Composition: from a floor panel alone to complete protection of floor, walls and wheel arches.

That is why we work with a made-to-measure quote: that way you know exactly where you stand, with no obligation and no duty to buy.

How long does it take to install floor and wall lining?

We install a standard fit-out smoothly; a complete fit-out is usually ready within two working days. You bring your van in in the morning and drive home in the evening, fully protected.

If you combine the lining with cabinets, drawers or load securing, you get a clear schedule in advance. That way your van is never off the road longer than necessary and you don't lose working days.

Which material should I choose to protect my load area?

That depends on what you carry every day. Heavy machines need a different floor than bags of cement or plants with wet root balls.

If you choose aluminium parts within your fit-out, the weight stays low: aluminium is up to 30% lighter, so you keep more payload and your electric van gets more range from a single charge. We advise you based on your van and your work.

Can I extend or adjust the protection later?

Yes, every fit-out of ours is built modularly and can therefore always be expanded. If you start with a floor panel, you can add wall panels, floor drawers or cabinets later without replacing the existing protection.

If your work or your vehicle changes, the fit-out simply grows with it.

What if my lining gets damaged?

Every fit-out comes with a 5-year full fit-out warranty. If something does break, we take care of the repair.

Parts also remain available for years, including for older systems. So you replace a damaged panel without renewing the whole lining.

Why choose Guntro to protect my load area?

We combine four strengths that you rarely find together:

  • Lining made to measure for your vehicle and your work, from L1H1 to L3H3.
  • Protection that lasts for years and increases the resale value.
  • A modular system that grows with your business.
  • 5-year warranty on the fit-out and aftercare by Guntro.

Will floor and wall lining fit in my van?

Yes, almost certainly. Our lining fits nearly every make and model, from a compact L1H1 to a large L3H3. Every panel is made to measure for your load area, right up to the wheel arches.

Not sure about your model? Browse the brands or ask Guntro: we know the dimensions of every van.

Do I lose load space because of the lining?

No. The lining follows the floor and walls of your load area closely, so you lose no usable space.

If you combine the protection with a smart storage system, you can even get up to 40% more usable load space out of the same van: the walls, the height and the space under the floor are wasted at the moment.

Does a protected load area help when returning a leased van or selling?

Yes. Floor and wall lining protects against wear for years and increases the resale value of your van. An undamaged load area also prevents disputes about wear and tear when you return a leased van.

So it is best to fit the protection before the first scratch: then your load area proves itself on the day it counts.
