Frequently asked questions
Should I use corflute or steel in a wet factory environment?
Colorbond steel resists moisture and chemical splash; corflute suits dry or covered areas. Polypropylene offers a middle ground for damp (but not wet) workshops.
How far away can workers read a 450×300 mm sign?
Typically 3–5 metres in good light. For larger open floors or outdoor zones, the 600×450 mm size ensures legibility from 8–10 metres.
Does lamination really extend the sign's life?
Yes. Lamination protects against scratches, UV fading, and minor impacts, extending lifespan by 50–100% in high-traffic or outdoor settings.
Can I order signs for multiple noise zones at once?
Absolutely. Order different sizes in a single transaction—use 300×225 mm in confined machine areas, 450×300 mm in main workshops, and 600×450 mm in large open floors. Bulk pricing applies to the total order.
What's the fastest way to get signs on-site?
