A van wrap is printed cast vinyl film, protected by a clear laminate, applied over a van's factory paint to cover some or all of its panels with your branding, colours and contact details.
What van wraps can do for businesses in Oban
- Queues on the main roads in and out of Oban give the driver behind you time to read a phone number on your rear doors.
- Wherever you park in Oban, whether a trade counter, a supermarket car park or a client's drive, the wrap keeps working while you do.
- Slow school-run and commuter traffic through Oban gives side panels time to be read, which rewards a short services list and large lettering.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Oban
Scotland follows the same approach to vehicle graphics as the rest of the UK. Livery on a van, car or lorry in everyday use is not treated as an advertisement needing consent; the council's interest starts only if a vehicle is parked up chiefly as a sign. What matters instead is the paperwork and the glass. DVLA should be told of any change of main colour through the V5C, and so should your insurer. Light transmission rules set a minimum of 75% for the windscreen and 70% for the front side windows, so our layouts never touch them. Lease or contract hire? Read the terms on graphics and removal first.
