Reviews
It’s just a standard PPE sign — nothing wrong with it, but nothing outstanding either. Does the job, but I’ve seen cheaper options that look just as good.
Does exactly what it should, gets the message across clearly. Only small gripe was that it didn’t come with fixings, so had to grab some screws separately.
Really happy with this sign. The graphic and text are easy to understand at a glance, and it sticks well to smooth surfaces. Even outdoors it hasn’t faded yet. Would buy again for other safety zones.
This sign ticks all the boxes for our H&S audits. Standard EN ISO 7010 design helps ensure compliance and it looks very professional hung at eye-level
The sign’s message is perfect and noticeable, but I’d say the material is a bit thinner than expected for outdoor use. Works fine indoors though.
