Description
Communicate hair protection requirements clearly with this AS 1319 mandatory PPE sign, displaying the blue circle and white pictogram format that commands immediate workplace attention. Deploy across food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and engineering shops where hair nets, caps, or hoods are non-negotiable safety controls. Available in colorbond, polypropylene, and vinyl across four sizes (240×180 mm to 600×400 mm), this sign scales to your installation needs. Reflective and laminated upgrades provide durability in humid, high-traffic, or outdoor-adjacent zones. Platinum Signs supports trade accounts with bulk discounts, flexible stock, and Australia-wide delivery from our manufacturing facility.
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
What's the difference between 'Hair Must Be Contained' and 'Hair Protection Must Be Worn'?
Containment signs instruct workers to secure loose hair; Protection signs mandate the wearing of nets, caps, or bonnets. Choose based on your facility's specific control requirement.
Which material handles moisture best?
Colorbond and laminated polypropylene both resist moisture and humidity. Colorbond is the most durable long-term choice for steam-heavy or wet environments.
Can I get this sign with pre-drilled holes for immediate hanging?
Yes. Four-corner pre-drilled holes are an optional extra with a base surcharge of $3.00 inc GST per sign for the listed configurations, before any applicable volume discount. Select the option to update the configured total before adding to cart.
Do you stock all four sizes locally?
We hold polypropylene and vinyl in all sizes at our Sydney warehouse. Colorbond may require 3–5 days for custom orders; check availability before ordering.
What discount applies to orders of 10+ signs?
Volume-pricing examples are 5 signs: 8% off, 10 signs: 15% off, 25 signs: 24% off, 50 signs: 32% off, 100 signs: 40% off. Savings increase gradually between these quantities. The total increases as you add more signs, while the average price per sign falls or stays the same. The configurator calculates the total for your selected quantity.
