Introduction: Why Choose a Custom Airstream-Style Food Trailer?

When it comes to mobile kitchens, every detail matters—from size and safety to kitchen equipment and power setup. Recently, we helped a client in the U.S. design and build a 5.8m Airstream-style stainless steel fast food trailer, fully equipped to meet American standards.

This case study shares the journey of how we turned their vision into reality, and it may inspire your own food trailer project.


Project Overview

  • Type: Stainless steel Airstream-style mobile kitchen trailer

  • Size: 5.8m × 2m × 2.3m

  • Axle: Double axle, 4 wheels, with braking system

  • Electrical Standard: 110V 60Hz with U.S. standard outlets and external power connection

  • Style: Modern, durable, and built for heavy-duty commercial use


Exterior Design

Serving Window & Display

On the right-hand side of the entrance, we installed a large selling window with a glass sliding panel and display board. This makes serving faster, more professional, and visually appealing to customers.

Dual Door Access

The trailer features two doors:

  1. A main entrance door for staff.

  2. An emergency exit door on the front right side for safety compliance.

Gas Cylinder Box

To ensure safe operation, we designed a dedicated gas cylinder storage box outside the working area.
