From Yellow to Green: Van Guard Accessories Becomes bott
For years, Van Guard Accessories has been a trusted name for high-quality van storage, roof-racking and security solutions. Now, the brand is taking an exciting step forward.
Van Guard Accessories is becoming bott.
This change brings the Van Guard product range together under the globally recognised bott brand, creating a more complete, convenient destination for commercial vehicle storage and conversion solutions.
But what does this mean for customers, and what can you expect as we make the transition from yellow to green?
The move to bott is about bringing more choice together under one roof.
Whether you're looking for professionally installed internal racking, the flexible bott Smartvan self-fit storage range, or self-fit external roof storage, you'll be able to access the complete portfolio through one unified brand.
That means an easier way to find the products you need to organise your workspace, improve vehicle efficiency and make the most of your van, both inside and out.
During the transition, you may notice dual branding across exhibitions and digital channels, as we gradually move from the familiar Van Guard yellow to the bott green identity.
By 2027, all operations, signage and products will have fully transitioned to the bott brand.
A new identity doesn't mean a change in the quality or engineering behind the products.
The engineering expertise that has defined Van Guard remains firmly in place. Our roof bars, roof racks and security products will continue to be designed, engineered and manufactured in Britain, from our state-of-the-art facility in Exeter, Devon.
You'll also continue to find many of the product names you already know and trust.
Our flagship ULTI Bar, aerodynamic ULTI Rack and high-security van locks will retain their established names and continue to deliver the crash-tested reliability customers have come to expect.
In other words, while the colour and branding may be changing, the engineering behind the products isn't.
And there is more to come.
For existing Van Guard customers, the transition is designed to be seamless.
You'll continue to receive the same expert customer service, rapid delivery times and industry-leading warrantiesyou've come to expect.
Your familiar products aren't disappearing. Instead, they'll become part of a broader, more integrated portfolio that gives you even more options for fitting out and securing your commercial vehicle.
So, while the Van Guard name is making way for bott, the things that matter most — quality, reliability, expertise and customer service — remain.
The move from yellow to green represents more than a change of colour.
It's about bringing complementary product ranges together and making it easier for commercial vehicle users to find the right solution for their individual needs.
From internal storage and racking to roof systems and vehicle security, bott is bringing these solutions together under one recognised identity.
Van Guard is becoming bott — but the expertise, products and people you know remain.
As we move towards the full 2027 transition, we'll continue to keep customers informed every step of the way.
Welcome to the next chapter. From yellow to green.
