Chereau Easy Bulkhead parts from the UK's sole distributor
The Chereau Easy Bulkhead is a demountable partition system that allows a refrigerated trailer to be divided into two temperature zones. This is used by food distribution operators running chilled and frozen product on the same vehicle, where the bulkhead creates a secondary temperature zone without requiring a second trailer. Maintaining the bulkhead in good working order is important for both operational efficiency and temperature compliance.
The Easy Bulkhead system uses specific panel sections, guide rails, seals, and locking hardware that are proprietary to Chereau's design. Replacement parts must match the original specification to maintain the thermal performance and structural integrity of the partition. Damaged seals, worn guide tracks, and broken locking mechanisms allow temperature transfer between zones and can affect compliance with temperature-controlled transport requirements.
As the sole UK Chereau distributor, Truckstop Group carries the genuine Easy Bulkhead replacement parts specified by Chereau. If you're not certain which component you need, call us on 01527 598 000 with the trailer serial number and we'll identify the correct part and availability.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Chereau Easy Bulkhead system?
The Chereau Easy Bulkhead is a demountable partition system for refrigerated trailers that divides the trailer body into two independent temperature zones. It allows operators to transport chilled and frozen goods simultaneously in the same trailer without cross-contamination of temperature zones. The bulkhead can be repositioned within the trailer to adjust the zone sizes.
Why do Easy Bulkhead parts need to be genuine Chereau components?
The Easy Bulkhead relies on specific panel dimensions, seal profiles, and hardware to maintain its thermal performance. Generic alternatives will not match the sealing geometry and may allow temperature transfer between zones, which affects compliance with temperature-controlled transport regulations. Genuine parts are essential for maintaining the system's certified performance.
How do I order Chereau Easy Bulkhead parts?
Call us on 01527 598 000 with the trailer serial number, which identifies the Easy Bulkhead specification fitted to your trailer. Alternatively, if you have the part number from the component you're replacing, we can confirm availability directly. Our Redditch team handles Chereau parts daily and can advise on lead times for any part not held in immediate stock.
What parts of the Easy Bulkhead system most commonly need replacing?
The most frequently replaced items are the sealing strips on the panel edges, the guide track sections that the panels slide in, and the locking hardware that secures the bulkhead in position. Seal wear is the most common cause of thermal performance loss. Replacing deteriorated seals before they cause a compliance issue is more cost-effective than emergency repairs when a load is refused.
