Germiston is one of the main industrial centres on the East Rand. Wadeville, Meadowdale, Jupiter and the surrounding industrial parks hold foundries, engineering works, steel and chemical suppliers and transport companies, and the N3, N12 and Heidelberg Road link them to City Deep, Johannesburg and the coast.
We serve Germiston as part of our direct Gauteng service. Vehicles can be brought to Rivonia, Sandton, or we can install at your depot, subject to location, project size, site conditions and scheduling.
Heavy industry fleets
Industrial fleets in Germiston are tough. Tippers, flat-decks, tankers, crane trucks and rigid trucks work around yards, gravel and workshops, and are washed hard and often. Cut vinyl lettering and fleet numbers are popular for this type of work because they are clean, readable and easy to replace, while printed and laminated panels are used where logos need detail.
Heavy trucks are awkward to move across town, so installing on site often gives the best result.
Vehicle types
Vehicle types we are regularly asked to brand around Germiston:
- Crane trucks and rigid flat-decks for steel and building suppliers
- Tankers carrying fuel, chemicals or water
- Tipper trucks serving construction and demolition
- Articulated trucks and trailers on the N3 and N12 routes
- Service bakkies for engineering and maintenance companies
Tankers and hazardous loads
Tankers that carry hazardous goods have specific identification requirements that are separate from company branding. We do not alter or replace any required markings. Please tell us what must stay visible, and send the information with your enquiry so we can place branding around it. See tanker branding for the general approach.
Cranes, rails and rail-linked freight
Germiston has long had a connection to rail and heavy engineering, and many local businesses move steel, machinery and components. Rigid trucks, low-bed trailers and crane vehicles with unusual shapes need layouts adapted to their bodies. Rivets, crane arms, outriggers and toolboxes all affect where graphics can sit.
We study photos of each unit and propose a layout that works around these features rather than across them.
Rebranding and changeovers
When a business merges, moves or renames, we are often asked to remove old graphics and apply new ones. For a fleet changeover we plan the work in stages, strip the old livery, prepare the surface and install the new design. The rebranding and fleet changeovers page explains the steps.
Timelines and warranties depend on the material and application and are confirmed on your quotation.
