Benefits of Van Signage

Build Awareness for Your Business: Van signage is a great way to build brand awareness for your business. Choose a design that uses your company colours, logo, product images, and slogans to help potential customers get to know who you are and what you do.

Even if you only want your company name and contact information on your vehicle, that will also go a long way in letting people know about your business and how to get in touch with you.

Advertises for You All Day Long, Every Day: The beauty of van signage is it keeps working even when you aren't. Whether you are on or off the clock, your message will be displayed wherever your vehicle is.

Whether you are parked or driving around making deliveries or running errands, your van signage will act like a billboard advertisement for your company.

Builds Your Credibility: Company vehicles with professionally installed signage will make your business seem more credible to customers.

Offers You Maximum Visibility: Your van signage can be applied to every side of your vehicle to give you the maximum visibility for your message.

No matter if someone is following you, coming towards, sitting next to you at traffic lights, or looking at your van in their rear view mirror, your message will be easily displayed for them to quickly see and take note of your business.

Gives You One of the Most Cost Effective Forms of Advertising: Vehicle wraps are one of the most inexpensive cost per impression forms of advertising. With the potential of getting hundreds of thousads of views every day, you can’t beat the value of van signage.

Gives You Great Flexibility: You have so many choices when it comes to vehicle graphics. You can decide to apply it to one, two, or a whole fleet of company vehicles including your business or personal cars, trucks, and vans.

Discourages Thieves: Having van signage makes your vehicle incredibly easy to identify. It will also require effort to remove or paint over the signage. This will discourage thieves from stealing it as it can be easily spotted and will take time to conceal it.

 

You can apply signage to all your company vehicles including vans, cars, and trucks

 

Van Signage: FAQ's

What is a vehicle wrap?

A vehicle wrap is a type of van signage that consists of a large vinyl graphic that is applied or wrapped around the outside of your vehicle. It is a great form of advertising that works for you wherever you travel or park to help build awareness for your company.

Can van signage damage your paint?

No. In fact a vehicle wrap can actually help to protect your paint from getting minor scratches, fading from the sun, minor abrasions, and damage caused by stones chipping your vehicle.

Can you remove a vehicle wrap once it is applied?

Yes. Vehicle wraps can be removed leaving your paint in the same condition as it was before it was applied. This process should only be attempted by a professional sign installation company though.

What happened if your van signage gets damaged?

If your vehicle wrap gets damaged in an accident, then get your vehicle repaired first. Then you can have the damaged pieces or the vehicle wrap replaced. Usually you don't have to replace the entire vehicle wrap as long as the damage is on only part of the signage.

 

It’s best to have only a professional install and remove your van signage

 

What is the best way to clean your vehicle that has van signage on it?

“AGC Graphics was a pleasure to deal with. They were clear in communication, quick to book a date to measure, gave tons of options, and followed up as it was required but above all else, their price was so competitive.
