Reviews
Great value sign that does what it says on the tin. Solid material and clear printing make it easy to read from a distance.
Looks professional and sturdy. Fit it near the site entrance, and it’s helped improve PPE compliance immediately.
Good quality for this type of safety sign. The blue and white are easy to recognise, and it’s helped remind staff to kit up before entering the noisy area
Average product - functional, but nothing really stood out. Great if you just need a basic mandatory sign, but expected slightly more robust material.
Decent enough. The message is clear, but the material feels a bit thin compared with other signs we’ve bought for outdoor use.
Clear, straightforward sign. Would have liked a larger size option included, but still does a good job where we put it
Really pleased with this sign. It’s clear and easy to spot - exactly what you need to remind people to wear ear protection. Quality feels decent for the price.
