    Trade Customer Success Story
    “Working with Rainbow Safety has transformed our safety sign sales.”
    Before partnering with Rainbow Safety, our safety sign sales were less than £300 per month.
    With the support and marketing tools provided, our sales have grown to over £3,000 per month.

    Fire extinguisher servicing margins are not what they used to be, so supplying safety signs has become a valuable additional revenue stream for our business. On one warehouse safety survey alone we invoiced £5,100 on a single order.

    We can now compete with internet prices and still make a healthy margin.

    We were regularly asked to supply safety signs, but struggled to compete with internet prices while maintaining a worthwhile margin.

    Working with Rainbow Safety has changed that. We can now offer our customers a competitive range of safety signs while still making a healthy margin for our business.

    Looks professional and well printed — staff now remember to put ear defenders on as they approach the press. Adhesive was good on our smooth steel.

    Perfect for our industrial workshop. Clear typography and symbol, good weather resistance, and it’s definitely helped with compliance during noise checks.

    Very clear and helped improve PPE compliance around our noisy cutting tools. Would be perfect if there were reflective options for dim workshops.

    Bright blue and easy to spot, makes the zone rules obvious for anyone using loud machines. Lost a star as I needed a larger size for a distant part of the shop
