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.
Where van wraps can pay off in Whitstable
- Slow school-run and commuter traffic through Whitstable gives side panels time to be read, which rewards a short services list and large lettering.
- A firm just starting out in Whitstable can look properly set up from the first job with a wrap rather than a magnetic sign on the door.
- If you trade across Kent as well as Whitstable, a wrapped van takes the same branding to every job without paying for advertising space.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Whitstable
For vehicles, the paperwork is about DVLA and your insurer, not the planning department. Graphics on a van or car that is normally driven around fall outside advertisement control; only a vehicle parked mainly as an advertising hoarding is caught. A change of main colour means updating the colour on your V5C and telling your insurer. We leave the windscreen and front side windows clear, because the Construction and Use Regulations 1986 require at least 75% and 70% light through them, and we check the paint is sound factory finish before wrapping. If the vehicle is leased, confirm the lease permits graphics and how they must come off.
