Description
Fire hose reel Type C identification sign meeting AS 1319 requirements, with the red panel design that enables staff and emergency responders to locate equipment instantly. Type C typically indicates high-pressure reels or specific configurations; verify your equipment's classification against your facility's fire safety plan. Material choices include corflute, polypropylene, colorbond, and vinyl, available in four standard sizes from 225×300 mm to 600×900 mm. Colorbond's non-combustible properties suit high-risk or industrial locations; polypropylene provides affordability for indoor installations. Fire-resistant inks maintain print clarity over time. Platinum Signs supports trade customers with volume discounts, nationwide delivery, and customisation options such as pre-drilled holes, lamination, and reflective finishes (Class 1 or 2) to suit your installation environment.
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked
Why are there three types of fire hose reel signs?
AS 1319 differentiates hose reel signs by pressure rating and configuration to ensure staff select the correct equipment for their emergency. Type C typically indicates high-pressure systems; always confirm your reel's type in your fire safety documentation.
Can I order all three hose reel types in one shipment?
Yes. Many facilities order a mix of Types A, B, and C to label different reel stations. You'll receive bulk pricing on the total order regardless of type variety.
What's the best material for a hose reel in a humid environment?
Colorbond or vinyl with lamination offer superior moisture resistance. Avoid polypropylene in wet areas (kitchens, bathrooms, outdoor locations) as it can warp or degrade.
Do you offer installation or consulting services?
Platinum Signs supplies signs and mounting hardware. For installation advice, consult your facility manager or fire safety officer. We're happy to clarify placement requirements per AS 1319.
How often should fire signs be replaced or inspected?
Inspect signs monthly as part of your fire safety audit. Replace faded, damaged, or illegible signs immediately. Laminated and reflective options extend service life between replacements.
