Virtual planning
Put together your individual van racking system.
The launch includes black-finish versions of Van Guard's most popular roof bars, roof racks and pipe carriers, following strong demand from customers for accessories that complement the styling of modern commercial vehicles.
Manufactured with a durable powder-coated finish, the new products have undergone extensive paint durability testing to ensure they can withstand the rigours of daily commercial use while maintaining their appearance over time.
Manufactured in the UK at Van Guard’s factory in Devon, the Black Range will be rolled out across Van Guard's European markets as well as the UK.
You've been asking, we've been listening
Demand for black-finish accessories has grown significantly in recent years, and it became clear that customers wanted the option to specify our most popular carrying systems in a finish that better reflects today's commercial vehicle market.
"This launch strengthens our product offering considerably. Customers can now choose between aluminium and black finishes without compromising on performance, durability or value. It's an important step forward for the business and demonstrates our commitment to developing products that reflect the needs of the market
Leigh Andrews, R&D Director at Van Guard
The launch follows an exciting period for the business after Van Guard became part of the Bott Group, one of Europe's leading manufacturers of vehicle conversions and workplace storage systems.
Founded in Germany more than 90 years ago, Bott operates internationally and is recognised for delivering innovative solutions that improve the way people work. The acquisition has brought together two organisations with a shared focus on engineering excellence, quality and customer-driven innovation.
A new chapter as part of the Bott Group
As part of the Bott Group, Van Guard continues to develop and manufacture its trusted commercial vehicle accessories while benefiting from the resources, expertise and international reach of a global organisation. The planned European rollout of the new Black Range reflects this growing capability and commitment to serving customers across multiple markets.
The introduction of the Black Range forms part of Van Guard's ongoing investment in customer-led product development and reinforces its position as a leading supplier of commercial vehicle carrying solutions.
Expanding European reach through customer-led innovation
Customers will be able to order the new Black Range from 1st October through Van Guard's distributor network and direct sales channels.
