Vehicle safety systems
Founded in 1992 with a proactive approach to vehicle safety, our aim was to promote the awareness of, and improve the safety of mobile plant through independent machine and site assessments, as well as the supply and installation of mobile safety products.
Spillard Safety Systems has evolved into one of the UK’s largest vehicle safety equipment suppliers to the construction, extraction, aggregate and transportation industries, with our customers ranging from quarrying and logistic conglomerates, to original equipment manufacturers.
As well as being one of the UK’s leading suppliers of specialised safety equipment to the quarrying and mining industries, our wide customer base also includes many household names in construction, vehicle manufacturing and defence.
An industry leader in innovative design and manufacture of vehicle safety solutions, we pride ourselves in customer service, employing a dedicated in-house support desk and a strong, experienced team of engineers to both carry out UK-wide, quality assured installations and provide first-time fix solutions after service with the support and assurance of our training and quality manager.
We are committed to providing our customers with the highest levels of service. This commitment and attention to detail, along with our continuous improvement policy, has earned our products acknowledgement by the HSE, as well as numerous awards and commendations from industry professionals.
Our range of solutions assist our customers in making work equipment and site vehicles as safe as possible for not only operators, but also site operatives. Every item supplied is carefully developed using the best available technologies. It is then stringently tested and fully customised to the specific needs of the application. We can then give our customers peace of mind that it is fully backed by the expertise of people who know the industry inside out – from specification and installation, right through to aftercare and service.
To ensure that our customers are provided with the most up to date information when deciding if additional safety products are required, we pride ourselves on being able to offer the following services:
Our unique pre-sales service offers complimentary site and vehicle surveys that allow safety management to determine, on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, exactly what the best configurations are for their fleet.
We offer presentations to highlight current health & safety regulations and industry best practice, together with the advantages that come with fitting our products.
Machine and vehicle visibility assessment mapping provides a report of blind spots and areas of enhanced driver vision through the use of additional visibility aids. There are over 100 assessments available to download from our website.
Our fully trained in-house team of engineers cover the whole of the UK, ensuring both a consistent and high standard of installation with minimal vehicle down time.
Utilising paperless scheduled engineer management, the synchronisation between the engineer and the job uses real-time connection between the back office and service engineers. Upon completion of the job, all installation data is recorded and then sent to customers, from post-installation checks to photographed confirmation that the product fitted conforms to the correct requirements. We make sure we deliver on our promises to exceed the expectations of our customers.

Our in-house machine database holds history of all installations and service visits, with fully integrated customer relationship management, gives us a 360 degree view of every account, contact, site and contract.
