Reviews
Looks professional and has made a real difference in reminding everyone to wear their protective footwear at all times. Stuck it up near the entrance, and people actually notice it now!
Good quality sign that’s easy to install. We went for the 450×600 rigid plastic version and the team can see it from a distance. Does the job and worth every penny
Decent mandatory sign, but for the price it could come with fixings included. Works well on smooth walls but struggled a bit outdoors in wet weather
Nice sign and pretty weather-resistant - still looking good even after being near the door. Would have liked a slightly larger size included as standard, but happy overall.
Very clear message and bold colours. The material isn’t super heavy-duty but fine for indoors. Lost a star only because I had to buy screws separately.
Solid sign and exactly what we needed on the factory floor. The message is clear, and the boot symbol stands out so no one forgets to put their safety boots on. Very pleased with how sturdy it feels.
