At KIRIN Industries, innovation has always driven the evolution of ALLYPAN® — our lightweight aluminium truck body system trusted by fleets, rental operators, and dealerships across Australia.
We are proud to announce the next major upgrade to the ALLYPAN® platform:
Introducing PVDF-Coated ALLYWALL Panels
Our signature ALLYWALL® main body panels are now being upgraded to premium PVDF coating technology, delivering improved durability, colour stability, and long-term appearance retention for demanding Australian conditions.
This enhancement further strengthens the ALLYPAN® philosophy:
Save Fuel. Carry More. Last Longer.
What is PVDF?
PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) is a high-performance architectural-grade coating system widely used in premium commercial buildings, transport applications, and harsh outdoor environments.
Compared with conventional coated aluminium panels, PVDF offers:
- Superior UV resistance
- Improved gloss and colour retention
- Better corrosion protection
- Increased resistance to chalking and fading
- Easier long-term maintenance
- Premium surface finish and appearance
For truck fleets operating under intense Australian sunlight and demanding freight environments, PVDF helps maintain a cleaner, more professional presentation over the life of the vehicle.
Built for Australian Fleet Conditions
ALLYPAN® bodies are already known for their ultra-lightweight aluminium construction, helping operators maximise payload and improve fuel efficiency.
The addition of PVDF-coated ALLYWALL® panels now elevates durability and presentation even further — particularly for:
- Rental fleets
- Metro delivery vehicles
- High-visibility branded fleets
- Long-term asset ownership
- Coastal and high-UV operating environments
Whether the truck is working in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, or regional Australia, the upgraded finish is designed to withstand the harsh realities of daily transport operations.
Lightweight Innovation Continues
As the Australian transport industry pushes toward higher efficiency and lower operating costs, KIRIN continues investing in advanced manufacturing and material technologies to keep ALLYPAN® ahead of the market.
From our Industry 4.0 manufacturing systems to our patented lightweight body technology, every improvement is focused on delivering real-world value to operators.
The new PVDF ALLYWALL® upgrade is another step forward in building smarter, lighter, and longer-lasting truck bodies for the future.
