Sunbound Solar & Electrical Transforms Their Ford Transit Custom
Sunbound Solar & Electrical, a fast-growing solar and electrical company based in Whakatāne, knows the importance of keeping their team organized and efficient on the road. As their business expanded and the demands of modern solar installations evolved, they needed a van storage solution that could handle new equipment—especially the bulky Nexans Mobiway cable drums.
Upgrading Storage for Specialized Gear
With more jobs and specialized equipment, Sunbound found their existing van storage wasn’t keeping up. They needed a system that maximized space, improved access to heavy cable reels, and made their day-to-day work easier—all without sending their van away for a week.
Contractor False Floor Kit Shipped Direct
After reviewing options, Sunbound chose the Contractor False Floor Kit from Workvan, selecting the 300mm drawer height to fit their new Mobiway cables. Because they’re based in Whakatāne, we arranged for the entire kit to be securely packed on a pallet and shipped directly to their door.
Here’s what Sunbound had to say about the process:
“To accommodate the new Nexans Mobiway cables, we went with the contractor false floor with the 300mm drawer height option. Workvan kept us informed every step of the way and let us know as soon as it shipped.
The installation was straightforward—we did it ourselves in just a couple of hours after work. The cutout was flawless, fitting perfectly into place. I simply provided my vehicle registration, and Workvan used it to verify the van’s correct model and make.
I’ve had the setup for a few months now, and it’s been a great addition, highly satisfied with the kit.”
The Result: More Jobs, Less Hassle
With their new fitout, Sunbound’s team can now:
Access heavy cable reels and tools quickly, thanks to smooth-running, full-length drawers
Stay organized, keeping valuable gear secure and easy to find
Promote a professional and organised feel when arriving onsite
