Wise Industries of Old Hickory, Tenn., created its VanWise interior packages that qualify for commercial for commercial incentive programs, allowing fleet owners and independent contractors to equip an eligible new van for little or no cash out of pocket.


"Our new VanWise components are basically a free product for fleet carriers or anyone that uses a cargo van for commercial purposes," said Ron Wise, president, Wise Industries. "Both GM and Ford offer upfit reimbursement programs that pay the customer back for qualified equipment purchases. These programs allow for the purchase and installation of our VanWise components then pays the vehicle owner back for part or all of it."

The GM Business Choice Program and Ford Commercial Connection Program are upfit reimbursement programs that pay the customer back for qualified equipment purchases. These programs are offered to businesses that purchase or lease an eligible Chevrolet, GMC or Ford van and use the vehicles for day-to-day business operations.

The VanWise package is made up of three components. Each package may be used alone and can be used in conjunction with installation of shelves or bins.

The ProVan Liner kit includes precision die-cut sidewalls, headliner, door panels, wheel well and fuel filler covers. All parts are made from a rugged, non-woven cargo liner bonded to sturdy automotive fiberboard. When installed, the kit provides insulation and protects the van's interior sheet metal from damage caused by cargo shifting, or when cargo is moved quickly onto shelves when loading and reloading.

A molded Environmental Partition serves as a bulkhead and seals the cab from the cargo area, fitting the contours of the vehicle and eliminating gaps, allowing for better regulated cabin temperature and decreased cabin noise. A roll-up door saves floor space.

VanTred floor mats are constructed with a rubber surface material laminated to a closed-cell foam padding. VanRug floor mats are non-woven carpet surface material laminated to a closed-cell foam padding. Both surfaces are extremely rugged yet provide a cushioned surface for knees or cargo.
