VAN SIGNAGE, VEHICLE GRAPHICS, PVC BANNER & Sticker FAQs

If you’re considering Van signage, Vehicle graphics, PVC Banners or Stickers & decals you probably have a few questions before getting started.
Below are answers to the most common questions we get, covering everything from materials and design to fitting and pricing.

Van & Vehicle signage


What is van signage and how does it work?
Van signage is the application of vinyl graphics, logos, and text to your vehicle to promote your business. This can range from simple cut vinyl lettering to more detailed designs using printed elements.

What’s the difference between cut vinyl and printed graphics?
Cut vinyl is solid colour vinyl that is cut into shapes or text — ideal for clean, simple designs.
Printed graphics are used when your logo has gradients, multiple colours, or detailed imagery that can’t be achieved with cut vinyl alone.
Most vans use a combination of both.

Do you offer full wraps?
No — we specialise in clean, professional signage using cut vinyl and printed elements. Full wraps are not something we offer.

How long does van signage last?
High-quality vinyl signage typically lasts:
  • 3-5 years for standard cut vinyl
  • 5 years for printed elements
  • 5-7 years when high performance cut vinyl is used
This depends on usage, weather exposure, and care.

Can you design the layout for me?
Yes — we can create a layout that works properly with your vehicle, ensuring everything is positioned correctly around panels, recesses, and curves.

Where is the signage fitted?
All signage is fitted at our unit in Waltham Abbey.

Can I apply the signage myself?
Yes — we also offer DIY kits with pre-cut vinyl and fitting guidance.

How much does van signage cost in the UK?
Pricing depends on:
  • Vehicle size
  • Design complexity
  • Materials used
As a rough guide:
  • Basic cut vinyl: from £150
  • Mixed printed & cut vinyl: £250–£400+

PVC Banners

What are PVC banners used for?
​PVC banners are ideal for:
  • Events
  • Building sites
  • Promotions
  • Business advertising
  • Short term shop signage
  • Occasions such as Birthdays, Weddings, Anniversaries, Parties & Celebrations

Are banners weatherproof?
Yes — our banners are designed for outdoor use and are fully waterproof and durable.

Do banners come with eyelets?
Yes — banners are supplied with eyelets for easy fixing, eyelets are placed in all 4 corners and roughly every 50-60cm along the top & bottom edges, we can also supply them without eyelets if required

What sizes are available?
We can produce banners in a wide range of sizes depending on your requirements.

How long do banners last?
PVC banners are designed to be durable and suitable for outdoor use. On average, they can last anywhere from 1 to 4+ years depending on how and where they are used.
Their lifespan can vary based on conditions such as:
  • Exposure to strong sunlight (which can cause fading over time)
  • High wind areas (which can put stress on fixings and material)
  • How securely the banner is installed
For longer-lasting results, banners should be properly tensioned and positioned in areas with reduced wind exposure where possible.
we have had some banners in place for 6+ years that still look almost as good as the day they were printed

  • Promotional giveaways

Are vinyl stickers waterproof and weatherproof?

What’s the difference between stickers and decals?

Decals are usually larger, more precise cut graphics (often without background) and are commonly used for vehicles, windows, or signage.

Can you print custom designs or my logo?
Yes — we can produce custom stickers and decals using your artwork, whether that’s simple logos or more detailed printed designs.
