Choosing a size
In warehouses, signs must be seen by forklift drivers as well as pedestrians, so place them at heights both can see and size them for the travel distance along an aisle. Aisle identification is often hung high and made large enough to read from the far end, A3 or bigger, while column and racking-end signs are commonly A4.
Standards and compliance
Warehouse safety signs typically follow SANS 1186 symbols and colours, and the OHS Act together with the Driven Machinery Regulations cover forklift and lifting equipment duties. Racking load information should come from your racking supplier or engineer. The customer remains responsible for correct content and placement; we print to the artwork or specification supplied or agreed.
