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 Gelligaer
- Vans left overnight on residential streets in Gelligaer carry on advertising in the evenings and at weekends, when people are at home and more likely to notice.
- Queues on the main roads in and out of Gelligaer give the driver behind you time to read a phone number on your rear doors.
- A firm just starting out in Gelligaer can look properly set up from the first job with a wrap rather than a magnetic sign on the door.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Gelligaer
Do you need the council's permission to wrap or letter a vehicle in Wales? Normally no. Graphics carried on a vehicle that is driven in the ordinary course of business sit outside advertisement control, and only a vehicle left standing largely as an advertising display is likely to interest the council. The rules that do bite concern registration and the road. A new main colour has to be recorded on the V5C with DVLA, and your insurer should hear about it. Front glazing stays clear: the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require 75% of light through the windscreen and 70% through the front side windows. If the vehicle is leased, check the agreement allows graphics.
