Description
The Metal sign is a horizontal wayfinding label (600×125 mm) for identifying metal-storage, equipment, or restricted-access zones within health facilities and industrial settings. Designed to complement pictogram-based systems, it integrates with AS 1428 and ISO 7001 conventions. Available in durable colorbond or polypropylene, it suits both interior corridors and semi-exposed mounting. Platinum Signs offers trade accounts with volume pricing, rapid turnaround, and Australia-wide delivery—ideal for facility refurbishment, new builds, or multi-location wayfinding rollouts.
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
Where is the Metal sign typically used?
It's commonly mounted on doors, walls, or storage areas to identify metal-equipment zones, restricted-access areas, or equipment rooms in hospitals, aged care, and industrial facilities.
