How to make your safety signs a sight for all eyes.
Safety signs and messages are only effective if positioned correctly and are large enough for everyone to view without straining their eyes.
Follow this easy four-step guide to ensure visibility of your signs and help everyone return home safely.- Position the sign in a prominent position, close to the line of sight when standing and ensure it won’t be blocked by anything.
- Measure the viewing distance between where the sign will be mounted and where everyone should sight the sign upon entry to the room or site. Use our Sign Guide below to determine the best size.*
- Ensure there is good lighting so that sign is visible
- Select the right and compliant size signs
- Pictogram is at least 15mm per metre of viewing distance
- Uppercase text must be at least 5mm per metre of viewing distance
- Lowercase text must be at least 4mm per metre of viewing distance
