Frequently asked
Where should I position a Tripping Hazard sign?
Place the sign at eye level immediately before or adjacent to the hazard—loose cables, steps, ramps, or floor obstructions. Ensure it is visible from the direction workers approach.
Is lamination worth the cost for indoor use?
Lamination protects against scuffs, dirt, and minor damage in busy corridors and loading areas. It extends the sign's lifespan, especially in wet or high-traffic zones.
What's the difference between corflute and polypropylene?
Corflute is lightweight and cost-effective for temporary or indoor use. Polypropylene is more durable and weather-resistant, making it better for outdoor or long-term installation.
Can I order custom text or add a site-specific message?
Yes, we offer customisation. Contact our team with your requirements, and we'll provide a quote and lead time.
