Zeichen 224 - Schulbushaltestelle StVO 1980 (Germany) (Road Sign) STICKER Vinyl Die-Cut Decal

This design reproduces a German road sign that marks a school bus stop, built from a green-ringed yellow H symbol above a weekday hours panel.

Visual Elements & Composition

A green circle encloses a yellow disc bearing a bold green capital H, set on a white square with a black border. Beneath it, a rectangular supplementary panel carries the black legend "Schulbus" with "werktags" below, followed by the time periods 7–9h and 11–13h. The palette is restrained to green, yellow, white and black, and the lettering is a heavy sans-serif chosen for quick reading at the roadside. The symbol dominates the upper half, while the time panel anchors the lower half, so the eye moves from identification to schedule.

Meaning & Symbolism

Catalogued as Zeichen 224 under the 1980 German road traffic regulations (StVO), the sign tells drivers that a school bus stops here and identifies the weekdays and hours when the stop is in use. The H reads as a stop marker, the green ring signals a designated stop area, and the time panel converts the sign from a general warning into a specific instruction. Its design reflects the functional, information-led character of official European traffic signage, where every element has to be understood at a glance.

Framing the Sign on a Sticker

A die-cut sticker follows its own outline, so the green ring and the square panel define the shape of the piece rather than sitting inside a border. The composition is built for close inspection and quick reading, which suits a small, hand-held object that can be turned and studied. Collectors of transport graphics, European road signs, public information design and wayfinding systems will recognise the sign's structure immediately.

Die-cut vinyl decals: precision-cut shapes on premium water-resistant vinyl with a matte laminate and UV protection — built to resist sun, rain and everyday wear for long-lasting use.

These die-cut decals are trimmed exactly to the design, producing crisp edges and a professional finish. They’re made from thick, water-resistant vinyl and finished with a matte UV laminate that reduces glare while protecting colors from fading.

The production process uses eco-solvent inks for dense, even color and a protective overlaminate that helps the decal survive outdoor exposure. Rated for multi-year outdoor life when applied to the right surface, these decals give a clean, matte look without sacrificing durability.

  • Material: premium water-resistant vinyl engineered for weather resistance.
  • Finish: matte laminate that mutes shine and guards against scratches.
  • Print: eco-solvent inks for solid blacks and vivid color depth.
  • Protection: UV laminate extends outdoor life and helps prevent fade.
  • Longevity: rated to last multiple years outdoors under normal conditions.

Die-cut decals adhere best to smooth, non-porous surfaces — glass, metal, coated plastics and finished wood. They work well on bottles, windows, laptops and vehicle windows for short- to medium-term outdoor use.

  1. Prep the surface: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth; for residue use mild soap and water and allow to dry fully.
  2. Peel and position: lift a corner of the liner, align the decal and lay it down slowly, pressing from the center outward.
  3. Seal: smooth the edges with a card or your thumb to ensure full contact and reduce trapping air.

Note: to keep adhesive performance in wet conditions, apply decals to very smooth surfaces (for example: glass). Avoid rough or heavily textured materials where the adhesive can’t form a full bond.

Maintenance is low-effort. Gently wipe decals with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp microfiber and light pressure will clean the surface — dry immediately afterward.

Avoid abrasive pads, strong solvents or power washers; these can scratch the laminate or lift edges. Proper care preserves the matte finish and keeps colors vivid for longer.

Sizes are specified by the longest side. For example, a 4″ decal measures four inches across its greatest dimension. The die-cut follows the artwork’s contour so the decal sits flush with clean, professional edges.

Small variations can occur with intricate outlines, but the listed measurement always reflects the maximum edge-to-edge length for accurate placement planning.
