Reviews
Excellent addition to our workplace fire safety signage. The colour coding is clearly presented and makes identifying the correct extinguisher much easier.
Good quality print and a handy reference to have near our fire point. The 300 x 200mm size is large enough to read without taking up too much wall space.
Really useful sign for helping staff understand the different extinguisher colour codes. Clear layout and easy to read at a glance.
