In 1998, Halo Graphics manufactured and fitted the UK’s first ‘battenburg’ conspicuity markings to a fleet of vehicles for Thames Valley Police Force. Halo Graphics became Bluelite Graphics and continue to lead the field in high visibility markings, supplying many emergency services throughout the UK and worldwide.

Five years ago, having identified a need for easy online access to their products and following the arrival of Chapter 8 regulation, Bluelite launched a new company – Chevronshom.com focused on providing commercial vehicle users with high visibility materials purpose-designed to optimise fleet conspicuity. Today Chevronshop.com is the leading UK online supplier of conspicuity livery and markings to vehicles working on the UK’s busy highway network.

An important service offered by Chevronshop.com is advice to customers regarding industry legislation, which is often very complex, ensuring vehicles satisfy the latest industry guidelines and standards governing vehicle conspicuity.

As a minimum, all fleet operators should be aware that the ECE104 legislation, introduced in July 2011, requires the use of retro-reflective safety markings on newly registered heavy goods vehicles operating throughout Europe; VOSA are now being much more active in checking side and rear conspicuity markings both in annual checks and in roadside inspections. Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual issued by the Department of Transport, outlines what conspicuous markings are required on vehicles that stop for work or inspection purposes on all public highways. Chevronshop can help operators comply with both sets of regulations.

Chevronshop can supply marking kits to fit to your vehicles that will allow them to be seen day or night from a considerable distance. These can be ordered quickly online via the website and are manufactured and despatched to you within 48 hours. Fitting is straightforward as the markings are cut to specific vehicle templates on the website database to ensure accuracy. Chevronshop marking kits use a base layer system where the second colour is applied over the top of the primary and eliminates any alignment issues between the two colours. Fitting can be arranged if required – just call the Helpline on 0870 2208341.

With this vehicle database and fast despatch, crash repairs can be completed quicker. The ease with which markings can be fitted and removed, and the expert advice available continues to attract an increasing number of customers keen to keep vehicles on the road without costly delay.
