Our priorities to support you

Being responsive

In an ever-changing world, the ability to respond to your needs without delay is a priority for saving you time and boosting your competitiveness. It also signals our desire to forge a trusted relationship with you in the long term.

Building a team

At Lecapitaine, the fit-out of a refrigerated vehicle means teaming up with you at every stage. We start by listening to you. Then, based on your requirements and plans, our technical advisors help you find the best products. Next, our teams get to work to ensure delivery to you by the agreed dates.

Adapting the production process

Deadlines, quantity, technical specifications, etc. We designed our production line to be agile and adaptable. With the flexibility to meet the specific requirements of your orders: for each customer, we use all the necessary resources and means to optimise the build, from design to delivery.

Committed to delivering solutions

Bespoke range

Our strength: offering the widest selection of refrigerated bodies, in addition to bespoke technical solutions designed by our teams to fit your operational uses.

Certified quality

We will not compromise on the reliability of our vehicles. That’s why we perform quality tests on our vehicle bodies in the laboratory, and then under real conditions.

Always there for you

We’re here from the start: to advise you. We're here during the process: to create your customised refrigerated bodies. And we’ll be here going forwards, through our responsive after-sales service that is never far away.

Quality checked

In order to meet the highest standards when building bodies onto your vehicles, we have established stringent checks throughout production. This procedure has been accredited by the top approval authorities in Europe.
