The Fortress™ body by Embassy® is the sure foundation of our vehicle line. Made with a super-strong yet ultra-light pultrusion fiberglass framework. The Embassy Fortress body provides a larger, more expansive space for customization that will exceed all your expectations.

The superior lightweight design of the Fortress body eliminates the need for CDL drivers and increases overall fuel efficiency while maintaining the strength and structural integrity of steel.

Embassy vehicles are made to work hard and be dependable for years to come. Our choice of materials and structural components ensure that your vehicle is one that won’t wear out or give up when you need it most.

Why Fortress Composites

Never Rusts

  • Will not rust, rot or deteriorate

Easier to repair

  • Highly damage resistant- less damage over time than standard.

  • If damage happens, it’s a simple fiberglass repair such as a boat or fiberglass item.

  • Patch will be as strong or stronger than original structure.

Much Lighter

  • 18% lighter per foot on average.

  • Lighter weights = more cargo or better mileage

Our Wall Structures

  • Technology can be used for constructing rooms, walls, buildings.

  • R-12 value on 1.5” walls- already insulated.

  • Sounds deadening walls- keeps each room private.

How we make it

  • Laminated structure with a high-tech Urethane adhesive between layers.

  • All AIR is eliminated from between the layers.

  • Extreme strength comes from both the pultrusion skeleton and the laminated structure.

Pultrusion

  • Fiberglass strands are woven together and PULLED through a die at high temp and pressure.

  • Resin is added in the process to bond the strands into a solid.

  • As strong as steel and lighter than aluminum.

Structures

  • We engineer our pultrusions to be both the skeleton and the support of our structures.

  • Complete framing or specific dies for specific needs.

Exterior And Interior Wall Panels

  • Repairability — Repaired the same as a fiberglass panel.
  • Impact resistant — Withstands hail and other small objects.
  • Continuous length — Cut to full length without seams.
  • Excellent corrosion properties — Unaffected by most corrosive chemicals the environments.
  • Water Resistant — Impervious to water penetration, mold and condensation.
  • Thermal insulation — Lower transfer of heat or cold.
  • R-value — Can be adjusted to higher values for refrigeration trucks.
  • Health — No formaldehyde and VOC’s from composites and adhesives.
  • Food safe — Can be used for food transport or storage.
  • Superior Bonding — Excellent bond to sub panels and core.
  • Good surface finish — 5-year UV stabilized. Excellent surface for paint and or graphics.
  • Dimensional Stability — Stretch, wrap and swell-resistant over a wide range of temperatures and physical stresses.
  • Low weight — This will give a higher cargo capacity.
  • High strength — Will withstand the demands of a transport or working vehicle.
  • Low-maintenance — Less seams and trim allow for less seal maintenance.
  • Long life cycle — This material will look better for longer

This construction can be adapted to any OEM chassis currently on the market. Fortress can provide just the box, or the customer can mount the box to the drop shipped chassis.
