How SG Haulage improved fleet safety and compliance with H-TEC
SG Haulage, a Lincolnshire haulier, serves across the UK with haulage requirements throughout the UK and Europe. Before partnering with H-TEC, they struggled with accessing reliable, high-quality video footage from their fleet’s camera systems, which were frequently glitchy and challenging to manage.
These issues severely limited their ability to effectively monitor driver activity and maintain compliance with evolving safety regulations.

4-Camera DVR Systems
DVS Compliance Solutions
Tachograph Management
Our Solution
To meet SG Haulage’s specific operational needs, we delivered a comprehensive turn-key solution designed to suit both their articulated (artic) and rigid vehicles. With the upcoming changes to the Direct Vision Standard (DVS), SG Haulage required a reliable, future-proof DVS solution — and trusted us to deliver.
Our team carried out a full assessment of their fleet before recommending and installing a compliant DVS system, including:
Front, side, and rear cameras with in-cab monitor integration
Integrating front, side, and rear cameras with an in-cab monitor is a great way to boost safety, visibility, and overall situational awareness for their vehicles.
Near-side sensors with driver alerts
Integrating near-side sensors with driver alerts significantly improved safety, particularly for large vehicles where blind spots pose risks to pedestrians, cyclists, and smaller vehicles.
Audible warning systems for vulnerable road users
Audible warning systems for Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) are increasingly important for large vehicles like trucks, buses, and construction equipment—especially in urban environments where pedestrians and cyclists are at higher risk.
External signage for full compliance
To achieve full compliance with all relevant regulations and safety standards, clear and visible external signage was carefully designed and installed at key locations.
Professional, on-site installation with minimal vehicle downtime
SG Haulage required minimal disruption to their vehicle operations. To accommodate this, we scheduled the majority of installations on weekends to avoid impacting their daily activities. The installation process was customized to their specific needs, with expert guidance from our team. From strategically positioning cameras for optimal coverage to addressing their individual questions, every detail was managed thoughtfully.
“We needed a reliable partner to supply and install connected camera systems, along with tachograph integration across our fleet. The team went above and beyond to understand our requirements and delivered a tailored solution that met them in full. The service we received was not only professional and efficient, but also tailored perfectly to the specific demands of our operation. The team understood exactly what we needed and delivered accordingly.”
