Covers for Transportation Equipment

A Full Lot of Inventory, All Exposed

Rows of new vans, box trucks, and work trucks can fill a lot for weeks or months before they sell, all of them exposed to the weather. Sun dulls the paint, moisture settles into panels and starts corrosion, and dust and debris coat the finish. Multiply that across a full inventory and small damage adds up to real reconditioning bills before a single unit is off the lot. Transhield keeps every vehicle covered through pre-sale storage and shipping.

One Cover, Made to Match Every Unit

Transhield designs each cover around a specific vehicle, so it sits close over the body and shields the surfaces most exposed in the lot. That tailored fit is what keeps water, UV, and grit from reaching the finish. Each design is made to order in any quantity you need. Here’s what that means for your vehicles:

Ships in the volume you need, so a full production run is protected the same way
Keeps new inventory factory-fresh through weeks or months of outdoor storage
Slows corrosion on exposed metal panels and frames with the optional VCI additive
Goes on fast, one or two people per unit, even across a large run
Holds reconditioning costs down and keeps units ready to sell or deploy
Sizes a custom cover to each model, from delivery vans to tractor trailers

Why Transhield Works

Water-Resistant Fabrics

The outer film turns rain and snow away from the vehicle, so far less moisture reaches the panels and seams during a long stay in the lot.

Anti-Condensating

As temperatures rise and fall, moisture can build up under a cover. Transhield’s nonwoven inner layer wicks it to the outside as vapor, keeping humidity low so corrosion is far less likely to take hold.

Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor

The optional VCI additive gives off a vapor that coats the vehicle’s exposed metal and slows corrosion by up to 95%. It carries no nitrites, nitrates, or hazardous materials.

Durable

One cover lasts through months of outdoor storage, season after season, without breaking down.

Soft Inside

A soft nonwoven layer faces the vehicle, so paint and trim stay free of scuffs and scratches, and that same layer adds strength to the fabric.

Lightweight

At 0.20 to 1.25 lbs per square yard, each cover is light enough to go on fast, which matters when you are covering a whole lot of units at once.

Custom Fit

Every cover is designed for one model and produced to match, so the tenth van off the line fits as closely as the first.

Protection from Degradation

One cover keeps UV rays, rain, snow, sleet, dust, sand, wind, and airborne grime off a vehicle that would otherwise weather in the open.

Why VCI

Under the cover, the VCI additive releases a vapor that settles on exposed metal and helps slow corrosion up to 95%.
