Oakley Horseboxes: 9 Series External Spray Booth Installation

We are pleased to share that we have recently completed the installation of a bespoke 9 Series external spray booth oven for Oakley Horseboxes, over 20 years since our last project together.

With a heritage dating back to 1947, Oakley Horseboxes has grown into a globally recognised manufacturer of luxury, bespoke horseboxes – combining traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation to set the benchmark for premium vehicle production.

Their existing finishing setup was ready for an upgrade, requiring a modern, high-performance solution capable of matching the quality of the vehicles they produce.

The Challenge

As Oakley continued to evolve its manufacturing capabilities, the need for a new finishing environment became clear.

Their new spray booth system needed to:

  • Accommodate full horsebox bodies
  • Operate efficiently in an external environment
  • Improve energy performance and reduce running costs
  • Ensure full compliance with safety regulations
  • Enhance productivity through reduced process times

The Solution

Junair designed and installed a fully bespoke 9 Series external spray booth oven, measuring an impressive 20m long x 5.5m wide x 5m high.

The booth features a split-operation design, offering flexibility across different stages of the finishing process. Given its external location, the system was engineered to deliver consistent, reliable performance in all weather conditions, without compromising on finish quality.

To further support day-to-day operations, in-booth platform lifts were installed, providing safe and efficient access to large vehicle bodies during preparation and finishing.

Energy Efficiency & Sustainability

Improving energy performance was a key focus for Oakley. To achieve this, the booth incorporates a range of advanced features, including”

  • 4-speed variable drives
  • Automatic fuel-saving recirculation
  • Advanced heat recovery system

By reclaiming and reusing thermal energy within the process, the system significantly reduces energy consumption and running costs, while supporting Oakley’s wider sustainability objectives.

Performance & Productivity

At the heart of the installation is Junair’s QADS (Quality Air Distribution System), delivering consistent airflow across the full 20-metre booth length thanks to:

  • Uniform temperature control
  • Reduced flash-off times
  • Faster drying cycles
  • Improved overall throughput

The result is a highly controlled finishing environment that enhances both quality and efficiency.

The Result

The completed installation provides Oakley Horseboxes with a robust, energy-efficient, and future-ready finishing environment, purpose-built for large-scale, luxury vehicle production.

It’s a great example of how thoughtful engineering and collaboration can deliver a solution that not only meets today’s demands but is built to perform for years to come.
