1. Project Overview
RTC Private Ambulance, based in Newcastle under Lyme, approached Korok to refresh their ambulance fleet. The vehicles needed a clean and updated look to replace their ageing wraps while maintaining the bright visibility required for emergency service use. Our goal was to deliver a high quality, long lasting wrap that looked professional on the road and reflected the reliability of their service.
2. Client Challenges and Goals
The client had been experiencing issues with vinyl peeling and colour fading, particularly in the day glow yellow areas which are essential for visibility. Some of the wraps had been applied in house, leading to inconsistent finishes and lower quality than desired. RTC wanted a precise, professional rework of their existing design, with a few subtle updates to improve the overall appearance while ensuring the wraps met safety and visual standards.
3. Korok’s Solution
Our team began by creating accurate new artwork using Illustrator, allowing the client to clearly see how the updated design would look before production began. We handled every stage in house, from design and print through to installation, ensuring the same high standard throughout the process.
For this project we worked with reflective materials including red chevrons and day glow yellow vinyl, both essential for ambulance compliance and road visibility. Although reflective materials can be challenging to remove, our team used the right tools and expertise to complete the process safely and without damage.
During the installation, one bonnet required a full rewrap after adhesive residue was discovered under a removed logo. We carried out a complete replacement to make sure the final finish met our standards.
4. Results and Impact
The finished ambulances looked fresh, bright and professional, instantly improving their presence on the road. The client was extremely pleased with the result, noting how much more vibrant and noticeable the vehicles looked compared to before.
Korok provided a 7 year warranty for the wraps, giving RTC full confidence in the durability and longevity of the materials. Our priority is always customer satisfaction, and this project reflects our commitment to delivering quality results every time.
