Service vehicles

All Scania dealers and workshops should have vehicles for roadside assistance services, recovery vehicles or vehicles for parts sales and distribution of parts. A uniform and clear graphic identity for these vehicles conveys a sense of Scania brand values – pride, trust and progress.

Adherence to the graphic identity is essential and a basic requirement for use of the Scania trademark by the authorised network. This section shows how to implement self adhesive decor stickers ordered from stock through the webshop shopb2b.scania.com.

Instructions for use of other logotypes, i.e. for independent companies, are available in the section for Independent companies. Any questions should be directed to Scania Identity Helpdesk.

Principles for decoration

By applying the Scania logotype to a vehicle we show that it is a vehicle from an authorised Scania dealer or workshop. Hence, the logotype must only be applied to vehicles performing service for Scania. The logotype must not be applied to other vehicles mainly intended for private use. Please note! Anyone driving a Scania-branded vehicle represents Scania and must act accordingly.

When the Scania logotype is applied to a vehicle, the vehicle must be white. The full-colour Scania logotype is placed on the vehicle where it is suitable, depending on the design of the specific vehicle, but always in the corresponding place on both sides of the vehicle. Any text should be Scania Blue and written in Scania Sans. The vehicle must be kept clean and the stickers in good condition.

Besides the Scania logotype, the logotype for Scania Assistance and dealer information may be applied to the vehicle. For usage of the Scania Assistance logotype there are special requirements. Please contact Scania Assistance Head Office (scania.assistance. headoffice@scania.com) for more information.

For vehicles without Scania Assistance decor, this location can be used for other relevant information, e.g. “Courtesy car” or “Scania Parts”. It may also be used for the optional sticker “24h emergency breakdown service”, intended for dealers and workshops who can provide customers with assistance 24 hours/day, but who do not have an agreement with Scania Assistance. No other decoration, such as the cropped griffin, must be used.

Service vehicles

The principles for decoration described and visualised below are applicable for service vehicles, mobile workshops and recovery trucks.

Full-colour horizontal lock-up logotype is used for sides. The vertical lock-up is used for front and back.

Please note that no other information than the Scania Assistance phone number may be added below the Scania Assistance Sticker.

Courtesy car and parts delivery

Besides service vehicles, a dealer might have other company cars, such as courtesy cars and vehicles for parts delivery. If possible, these cars should be marked with their intended purpose, e.g. “Courtesy car” and “Scania Parts” as well as dealer information (e.g. company name, address and phone number).

Application

The surfaces must be rigorously cleaned immediately before application. Minimum temperature for application is + 8°C. Use 3M Surface Preparation System or equivalents. Curing time min 24 Hours.

Maintenance

To protect the Scania brand and ensure a uniform identity, the vehicle shall be kept clean and the decorations in good order. When washing down the vehicle with high pressure, be careful with the edges of the decals. The angle when washing down the vehicle should be as close to 90° as possible. Reduce the water pressure to 80 bars. Minimum distance between the vehicle and the nozzle should be 40 cm.

Warranty

Scania provides the same warranty as for parts. To protect the Scania logotype, all Scania stickers must be ordered via the central system and it is not allowed to produce them locally.
