Our unit is on Croydon Road in Caterham. The clue's in the name: follow the A22 south out of Croydon through Purley and Kenley and you're at our door in about twenty minutes. Croydon is our nearest big town and where a lot of our van and car work comes from, so this page is for Croydon, Purley, Coulsdon, Sanderstead, Selsdon, Addington, Sutton, Bromley and the bits in between.
“Like us they love a ridiculous brief that needs to be completed yesterday, allowing their creative juices to run wild. We honestly couldn’t find a better partner when it comes to vehicle wrapping and signage.”
James, Shred & ButtaBy road: A22 (Brighton Road) south through Purley, Kenley and Whyteleafe. We're on the left just before Caterham Valley. From the Purley Way retail and trade estates it's fifteen minutes. From central Croydon, twenty. From Bromley, twenty-five via the A232 and A22.
By train: Caterham station is a short walk from the unit, and the line runs straight to East Croydon (about fifteen minutes) and on to Victoria and London Bridge. Drop the car, catch the train, back at work before the film's had its first heat.
Tram and bus: the 407 runs Sutton to Caterham via Croydon.






































Croydon has one of the biggest concentrations of trades, logistics and small business vans in the south east, and the Purley Way estates are full of them. What comes to Caterham from Croydon:
sign writing and partial wraps for plumbers, electricians, builders, decorators and cleaners. Often same day.
based around Purley Way and the Beddington industrial area: consistent livery, template-based, quick to add vans to.
branding plus Chapter 8 chevrons.
, who need every branch car to match. Dexters' fleet includes their south London branches.
around Croydon and Purley.
For a set of lettering on a white van, a Croydon sign shop may well be fine. For anything that has to last, or that involves colour change film, PPF or a fleet standard, the difference is:
3M Select Gold Partner status and 3M and Avery cast films with the manufacturer's warranty

Car wrapping Croydon is one of the few town-level searches that actually converts for us, and it's because of what people drive round here: a lot of German saloons and SUVs, a lot of Teslas, and a lot of new leases. Satin colour changes, gloss black roofs, chrome deletes and front-end PPF. The Ads data says "car wrapping croydon" and "car wrapping bromley" generate real enquiries, so if you searched that, you're in the right place.
If you're based on or around Purley Way, the Beddington estates, Imperial Way or the Croydon industrial areas towards Mitcham, you're fifteen to twenty minutes from us and you're probably running vans. We see a lot of them. The usual pattern is a first van sign written, a second van a year later that matches it exactly because the layout is on file, and a fleet plan when the numbers get to five. If you run vehicles for a builders' merchant, a hire company or a delivery firm on those estates, ask for the fleet team.
Croydon and Purley have coach operators, skip and grab-lorry firms, refuse contractors and 7.5-tonne delivery fleets. The unit takes all of them indoors. Chapter 8 chevrons for skip and grab lorries, full livery for coaches, cab-only branding for hauliers who pool trailers. Twenty minutes down the A22 and the vehicle is inside, not in a yard.
Because you're close, the logistics are easy. Sign writing: drop the van at eight, collect at lunch, or wait for it if it's a simple set. Colour change or PPF: drop the car on the way to East Croydon in the morning, collect two evenings later. Fleet batches: a driver can shuttle vans between Purley Way and Caterham in the same morning, so a batch of three can be dropped and the first collected without anyone waiting around.
About twenty minutes by car down the A22 through Purley, or fifteen minutes by train from East Croydon to Caterham, then a short walk.
No. Everything is fitted indoors at the Caterham unit. The train link makes drop-off simple.
Same as anywhere for us: quoted per vehicle, with roofs and chrome deletes at the lower end and full colour changes at the top.
