• Durable warning signs for slips, cleaning in progress, restricted areas and other common hazards in catering and hospitality venues.
• Instructional signage outlining safe operating procedures, PPE requirements and emergency actions for staff and visitors.
• Robust equipment tags to identify inspection status, maintenance schedules and safety checks on key appliances and tools.
• Options suitable for indoor and outdoor use, with fade-resistant finishes and high-visibility colours for quick recognition.
• Signage solutions to support safety and first aid programmes alongside fire safety, steps and stepstools, and safety mats.

How to choose the right Safety Signs and Equipment

• Assess the specific risks in kitchens, bars, washrooms and delivery areas so you can select warning signs that clearly address real hazards.
• Match sign formats and sizes to viewing distance and location, ensuring messages are legible in corridors, stairwells and busy prep areas.
• Choose materials that suit the environment, such as wipe-clean plastics for food prep zones or weather-resistant options for outdoor entrances.
• Plan your safety signage around legal and insurance requirements, including hazard warnings, first aid points and fire safety information.
• Use equipment tags where regular inspection or maintenance is required, helping you document checks on dishwashers, refrigeration and other plant.

Care and maintenance

• Clean signs and tags regularly with non-abrasive cleaners so safety messages remain clear and easy to read.
• Inspect signage for fading, cracks or damage and replace any items that are no longer fully legible or securely fixed.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or scouring pads that can scratch surfaces and reduce visibility or hygiene.
• Check fixings, stands and adhesives on wall signs, floor signs and step warnings to ensure they stay safely in place.
• Review your safety signs and equipment tags periodically to ensure they still reflect current layouts, procedures and regulations.
