Professional EV Charging Bay Markings Service
We install electric vehicle parking bay markings on suitable tarmac and concrete surfaces, using materials selected for the location, traffic levels and required finish.
Our EV marking services include:
EV charging bay line marking: Thermoplastic outer lines defining designated charging spaces.
MMA coloured bay markings: Coloured MMA paint finishes for the inner sections of EV charging bays.
EV symbols and lettering: Preformed EV symbols, stencils and lettering to identify charging spaces.
Thermoplastic EV markings: Hard-wearing markings applied to suitable surfaces.
EV bay repainting: Refreshing faded or worn markings on existing EV charging spaces.
We provide the markings and surface finishes only. We do not supply or install charging equipment, bollards or associated infrastructure.
From individual workplace bays to larger commercial charging areas, markings are applied to the agreed specification.
EV Bay Marking Materials and Weather Conditions
We use thermoplastic for EV charging bay boundary lines and MMA paint for coloured bay surfaces, where suitable for the project specification.
MMA coatings require suitable surface and weather conditions. Cold or wet surfaces can affect adhesion and curing, so application may need to be scheduled around appropriate conditions, particularly during winter.
We can also supply and install preformed EV charging symbols and stencils as part of the finished bay markings.
EV Charging Bay Colours, Dimensions and Requirements
EV charging bay markings help drivers identify designated charging spaces while accommodating the site’s layout and accessibility requirements.
Green and blue finishes are commonly used, although neither colour is universally mandatory in UK car parks. EV symbols, contrasting bay lines and lettering can be applied to an agreed design.
Bay dimensions should account for vehicle access, charging point positions and accessible charging spaces where required. PAS 1899 provides guidance for accessible public EV charging facilities.
Private car parks can use site-specific designs, while regulated on-street bays must follow applicable traffic sign and road marking requirements.
Northern Marking installs EV bay markings to the agreed specification. We do not design or install charging infrastructure.
For more information, see our guide to improving site accessibility.

EV Charging Bay Marking Costs
