Westcotec celebrated their 20th Anniversary in April 2021.
Over the years Westcotec has grown to become one of the industry leaders in Vehicle Activated Signs (VAS) and other related technologies.
Since 2018 Westcotec pride themselves on being employee owned company. The company founder Phil Hayton (now retaired) and managing director Chris Spinks have gathered together a dedicated and loyal work force, all subscribing to a strong customer service ethic. This consistent approach to a high level of post-sale support has led to the development of long term relationships with both public and private sector customers.
Westcotec thrive on innovation, relishing the challenge of bringing new approaches to old problems. Alongside traditional speed warning signs the company produces very specialist devices including, Road Flood Warning, Bridge Height Warning systems, Collision Avoidance System and distributes Air Quality products, Smart City Solutions and vehicle chargers.
Westcotec manufacture their traffic safety systems in their own factory based in Norfolk utilising high quality, rigorously tested components. The single site for Manufacture, Technical Support, Research, Development , Sales and Marketing provides an ability to react swiftly to customer’s requirements, particularly in the more specialist areas, this flexibility has led to custom in not only in the UK but also across Northern Europe, Asia and the Middle East. They are one of only a few to have obtained the required CE mark for their VAS products.
Westcotec has pioneered alternative energy with wind and solar options, available throughout most of its product range.
Westcotec are determined to reduce their carbon footprint so for every sign sold a tree is planted in the company owned woodland, to date this numbers in excess of 12 000 trees.
