Check the sign format before ordering
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.
This is general product information, not legal or engineering advice. A safety sign is one part of a workplace control system; confirm the site and jurisdictional requirements before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Which creature variant should I order for my beach?
Identify the dominant stinger or creature risk at your location: tropical jellies and blue-bottles (Oct–May, QLD/NT); rays and cone shells (WA southwest); temperate jellyfish (NSW south coast). Consult your local SLSA branch or council marine officer — we can supply the correct pictogram variant.
Is polypropylene durable enough for a full season?
Yes — 1.6 mm polypropylene withstands UV, salt spray, and wind for one full stinger season (Oct–May). Cable-tie mounting to existing posts keeps installation costs low, and the material stores flat indoors after season end.
What's the difference between vinyl strip and rigid materials?
Vinyl strip (adhesive-backed) is for indoor notice boards, clubhouse walls, and temporary mounting surfaces. Polypropylene and aluminium are rigid, outdoor-rated, and designed for coastal weather exposure.
Can I order different creature variants in a single bulk purchase?
Volume-pricing examples are 5 signs: 8% off, 10 signs: 15% off, 25 signs: 24% off, 50 signs: 32% off, 100 signs: 40% off. Savings increase gradually between these quantities. The total increases as you add more signs, while the average price per sign falls or stays the same. The configurator calculates the total for your selected quantity.
Do councils and SLSA clubs get special pricing?
Yes — we offer volume discounts for government bodies, local councils, and SLSA-affiliated organisations. Email your ABN and purchase history to secure your trade account and tiered rates.
