Choosing a size
Hygiene signs are read at close range at basins, prep stations and entrances, so A5 and A4 formats are usually enough. Charts such as cleaning schedules and temperature logs need room for entries, so A4 or A3 portrait layouts work well. Keep signs away from direct splash zones where possible.
Standards and compliance
Food premises in South Africa operate under the food hygiene regulations made under the Foodstuffs, Cosmetics and Disinfectants Act, and local environmental health practitioners inspect against them; workplace safety signs commonly follow SANS 1186. The customer remains responsible for knowing which notices their premises need; we print to the artwork or specification supplied or agreed, and this is not legal advice.
