Road tankers

Van Hool’s commercial vehicles division offers a highly varied range of vehicles. They include different types of semi-trailers for various goods, tank and bulk trucks and containers, swap tanks, swap bodies, container chassis, box trucks, combinations, customised products, etc. They are available in the most diverse designs, all using the latest technologies.

The extensive range of road tankers is proof of Van Hool's expertise in this sector. There are road tankers for the transport of foodstuffs, chemicals, gases, bitumen, CO2 and cryogenic gases and also specials built to customer specifications.

The road tankers at Van Hool are built according to the specific requirements of both the customer and the product to be transported. Depending on these factors, the tanks are made of steel, stainless steel or aluminium. The contents of the tank, the number of compartments, any insulation and heating and so on are determined together with the customer. Taking all these aspects into account, Van Hool always provides the optimum volume/weight ratio. Road tankers can be fitted out in accordance with various national and international regulations (ADR, IMO and so on).

Van Hool builds road tankers for various purposes, such as foodstuffs, chemical transport, gas, bitumen, CO2 and cryogenic gases as well as many specials, which are custom-built road tankers.
