  Solid Body Construction  
SolidBody™ construction is what separates Braun Industries, Inc. from all other ambulance manufacturers. SolidBody™ construction is unique. Every Braun ambulance is built as one integrated module from .125" flat sheet, marine grade, aluminum. Floor, roof, sides and doors are all constructed from brake formed parts with full contact weld seams. Since there is no separate extruded frame, SolidBody™ reduces weight and adds strength, providing many significant advantages.
 
 
 
 
 

Full contact weld seams with no separate extruded frame provides strength and stability. In the event of impact, an extruded frame module tends to transfer the energy from a collision across the frame, often twisting the module out of square, jarring the skin loose from the extrusions, and causing cracks at spot weld points throughout the body. SolidBody™ design, however, incorporates all body components into one integrated module, absorbing impact, minimizing the transferred damage, and providing added safety.

The Braun arched roof design allows for more internal headroom, gives more strength to the module roof, and eliminates water and snow pooling. The brake formed construction is lighter and stronger so you can carry more crew, more patients, and more gear. Sprayed-on foam insulation in ceiling, walls, doors, and the entire underside of the body provides acoustical and thermal insulation. The module design provides a very low center of gravity and balance across the axles, allowing the vehicle to hug the road and stop smoothly and evenly.
