Van ply lining

Professional ply lining to protect the van interior and give everything that follows something solid to fix to. Better durability, better insulation, a proper finish — and a shell that's ready for whatever you build next.

★ What's included

A shell you can build on

✓

Walls & wheel arches

Panels templated to the van's real curves, not a generic kit.

✓

Roof & bulkhead

Lined out overhead so the whole shell reads as one finish.

✓

Vöhringer lining ply

3–5mm on the sides, 9–12mm on the floor. The lightweight German stock — less payload eaten by lining.

✓

Insulation behind

Fitted in the same pass, before the ply goes on.

✓

Service cut-outs

Openings left for wiring runs, lights and vents.

✓

Supply-only kits

Cut to your van and flat-packed if you'd rather fit it yourself.

★ How it works

Templated, then fitted

Same five stages on every build. No mystery, no moving goalposts.

★ Quick answers

Lining FAQs

Straight answers. If yours isn't here, the workshop phone gets answered by the people on the tools.

01Which ply do you line with?

Vöhringer 15mm for furniture. Lining is thinner — 3–5mm on the sides, 9–12mm on the floor. It's the German furniture-grade stock premium converters use — noticeably lighter than standard birch, which matters when you're lining a whole shell.

02Do you insulate behind it?

Yes, and it's the right time to do it. Insulation and sound deadening both go in before the ply, in the same pass — doing it later means taking the lining back out.

03Can I fit it myself?

You can. We'll template your van, cut the panels and supply them flat-packed with the fixings. Most of the skill is in the templating, and that part's already done.

04How long does it take?

A lining job is usually two to four days in the workshop, depending on van size and whether insulation is going in at the same time.

    Insulation goes in first

    We fit it behind the ply in the same pass, never as an afterthought.
