A.R.E. NAMED U.S. DISTRIBUTOR OF SPACEKAP TRUCK CAPS

MASSILLON, Ohio – Leading truck cap and tonneau cover manufacturer A.R.E. is now the exclusive U.S. distributor* of the SpaceKap, a versatile truck cap manufactured by Canadian-based Fibrocap Inc.

The SpaceKap is a self-contained mobile unit constructed of double-sided fiberglass walls – insulated to avoid condensation inside the unit – as well as a reinforced floor and stainless steel hardware. Designed to increase efficiency, the SpaceKap features twin entry doors and a unique tie-down system that allows users to install or remove the cap in minutes. The cap, which can be customized with optional doors, windows, interior shelves, dome lights, ladder racks and more, is built to spec for most compact, mid-size and full-size pickups on the road today.

“At A.R.E., we pride ourselves on offering quality cargo management and organizational solutions that fit our customers’ needs, whether they require a fully equipped fleet of construction trucks or they deliver temperature-sensitive goods that must be kept refrigerated,” said Jim Blayne, commercial/fleet sales manager for A.R.E. “The SpaceKap is a great addition to our current line and will provide niche markets with an innovative, unique product to keep their businesses running smoothly.”

Available models include:

• SpaceKap Classic is the ultimate toolbox for everyone from general contractors to large fleet operators, easily capable of replacing vans as an effective service truck.
• SpaceKap Max is the perfect mobile workshop offering maximum volume for the construction, plumbing and electrical industries, among others.
• SpaceKap Kool is an innovative refrigerated unit featuring double-wall insulation that is ideal for the catering or medical markets. And, depending on the customer’s needs, the SpaceKap’s refrigeration device can be replaced with a heat unit to maintain a warm interior.
• SpaceKap Plus, the most versatile cap in the lineup, is available in both 6-foot and 8-foot lengths and allows users to stand fully upright in the unit.
• SpaceKap Somager is a small truck solution designed to fit all domestic and import pickups.

“We are excited to develop this relationship with A.R.E., who is well-known in the marketplace and has a large dealer base that will help SpaceKap reach a maximum audience,” said Sean Brideau, sales and marketing, Fibrobec. “Our network currently distributes the SpaceKap throughout Canada, Washington and Oregon, and now customers throughout the United States can order our products and services from A.R.E.’s reliable dealers.”
