Police fleet safety markings based on science

All of the Police vehicle safety markings manufactured by Fleet ID are rooted in scientific research. Our Police liveries comply with the regulations that have arisen as a result of extensive research, carried out by The Home Office Scientific Department.

All emergency Police vehicles need safety markings

All emergency Police vehicles need safety markings – but which markings are right for your fleet? Well, that all depends on the use of the vehicle and what type of roads it will be operating on…

Police fleet markings explained…

Full battenburg side markings

Full Battenburg markings should be applied to all emergency service vehicles intended for motorway, high speed roads and patrol duties.

Half battenburg side markings

Half Battenburg side markings are for use on urban/suburban patrol vehicles to ensure safe operation of fleet on non major roads.

Rear Chevrons

Rear Chevrons are required for emergency vehicles operating both on motorways and non major roads (suburban).

The coverage you need for your Police vehicle livery

Our Police vehicle livery kits comply with the regulations related to conspicuity markings for the emergency services – both from a coverage perspective and the retroreflective materials used. Police vehicle markings from Fleet ID Limited will help to maximise visibility for your fleet – whether daytime or night-time conditions.

We’re able to incorporate your particular force branding, if required, as well as any Police vehicle livery text that is needed. This may include bonnet text, text along the sides and also the rear of the Police vehicle.

 

Edge sealed Police fleet livery

All of the Police fleet livery that we supply is edge sealed. This is where the edges of the cut reflective material are sealed to ensure that dirt and water cannot penetrate the material, which would cause damage over time and affect the reflective performance of the product.

Our edge seal process is tested each time we produce an emergency service kit. This ensures that the full kit will then be fully and properly edge sealed.

Whether you choose 3M, Nikkalite, Orafol or Avery reflective markings, you’ll be safe in the knowledge that they are all edge seal protected.

Police fleet livery produced to the highest standard

We take extensive steps to ensure that your Police safety markings are produced to the highest standard and that edge sealing is carried out with the upmost care for every single emergency service vehicle livery. For full details of the production process, quality control and traceability of our emergency service vehicle livery please click here.

We understand that time is of the essence

This is one of the driving forces behind our unique vehicle livery ordering system – Fleet ID Secure. It has been specifically designed for the emergency services as a place to quickly and easily order fleet livery. Here, you will have access to your exact fleet vehicles, with the option of ordering full markings or replacement parts.

Here when you need us most

Downtime of Police fleet vehicles is disruptive and inconvenient. If your Police fleet vehicle livery sustains any sort of damage, we understand that this will need rectifying as soon as possible.

Police fleet livery can be turned around on a next day basis, so whether you have a new vehicle that needs some urgent livery, or are dealing with accident damage, your Police fleet vehicles need not be out of action a second longer than necessary.

Need something a little more bespoke?

We’ve also created some Police vehicle liveries with a difference too, such as the example shown here. This vehicle was created for Derbyshire Constabulary for Operation Sceptre in 2021 and was involved in the campaign against knife crime. Click here to read the full story.

Our bespoke vehicle liveries can incorporate all aspects of your force branding, along with any special campaign or recruitment messages. The whole vehicle can be used – sides, bonnet and windows too. If you’ve got a special project in mind, contact our team today on 0344 2098775 or click here for our contact form.
