SEE HOW FAR WE'VE COME

2015
We started small, but we’ve always thought big. In 2015, our first local hire rolled out of a modest depot with just two team members and a shared ambition: to make UK roads and worksites safer, smarter, and better managed.

We built our first fully in-house VMS (Variable Message Sign), a defining moment that we’ve carried on through a commitment to innovation, British-Built products, local materials, and self-sufficiency.
2016

We expanded our team and doubled down on delivery capacity – new trucks and our first fabricator (growing the team to three!) to meet the growing demand for our products and expertise.
2017

As we grew, so did the scope of our work. From keeping level crossing works safe to directing lorry traffic on busy roads, our mission remained clear: helping people travel to or for work, and get home safely at the end of the day.
2018-19
2020
When the pandemic hit in 2020, our VMS played a role in helping communities navigate social distancing and testing, as well as relaying messages of thanks to key workers and the NHS. Our signs were even featured in the NY Times and The Guardian!

Our first CCTV installations hit the road - providing year-round off-grid operation, and monitoring by an NSI Gold certified control room.

We exhibited at our first trade shows, and opened our Scotland depo, allowing us to serve even more of the UK. We also launched our first fixed VMS, expanding our offering even further.
2023

Our most ambitious project yet: Vecta - our game-changing hazardous object detection system, designed and developed entirely in-house and already turning heads across the industry.

We’re also proud to showcase our brand-new look - a bold rebrand that’s more than just a new logo; it’s a symbol of how we’ve evolved while staying true to our values.
2024-2025
Looking ahead, we’re excited to keep pushing boundaries, investing in innovation, and finding even smarter ways to keep roads and worksites safe. With Vecta, our expanding depot network, and plenty more ideas in the pipeline, the next decade promises to be even more exciting than the last. We’re looking forward to working with you along the way.
