BSAU 145e Compliance

HEX Number Plates are road-legal because the British Standards & Regulations have no restrictions on plate shape. Plate constructions must be BSAU 145e Certified, thus meeting the specified durability & retroreflective visibility levels. Plate sizes must allow the Registration Format and still provide sufficient space for the outer margin.

Below is a brief comparison image & overview of some BSAU 145e tests:

Digit Comparison HEX Plates Comparison Oblong Plates
Retroreflectivity - ICON

Reflectivity & Visibility

HEX Plates must meet the British Standard regarding reflectivity & visibility. Certification tests check the background is retroreflective & the printed areas are non-reflective for contrast.

Weathering - ICON

Weathering Resistance

Number plates undergo simulated weathering tests in a laboratory to assess durability. After 2275 hours of exposure to UV light and water spray, the plate edges are examined for delamination.

Colourimetric - ICON

Colourimetry & Photometrics

The British Standard specifies a number plates background & character colours. Our HEX Plates, 3D & GEL Digits performance are checked both before and after 2275 hours of weathering tests.

Abrasion - ICON

Abrasion Resistance

Plate durability is also tested by evaluating resistance to wear and tear. After 6,000 strokes of a 1kg weight and cotton cloth, a plate samples durability is tested and measured.
