Product details
Approve every PPE symbol before manufacture
The placeholder is not a safety instruction. Confirm the exact equipment required by the workplace risk assessment, then approve the matching pictograms and mandatory legend before the sign is released to manufacture.
Place the instruction before the controlled area
Mount the sign on the normal approach where people have time to read and follow it before entering. Repeat it at separate gates, doors or access points when one face cannot be seen from every approach.
Choose the landscape size and material
Polypropylene is the default rigid option, vinyl suits a prepared smooth surface, 3 mm Corflute suits temporary site use and Colorbond provides a stronger mechanically fixed face. Choose 600 × 450 mm or 900 × 600 mm for the actual viewing conditions.
Keep the full risk-control system in place
A sign can reinforce the PPE instruction but cannot control the hazard on its own. Retain the elimination, substitution, isolation, engineering and administrative controls, together with suitable PPE selection, fit, training, maintenance and supervision required for the work.
Check the sign format before ordering
The placeholder is not a PPE instruction and cannot demonstrate compliance. Approve the exact mandatory symbols and wording for the assessed work, then confirm the finished sign's size, position, visibility and supporting controls before manufacture and installation.

- Standards Australia – AS 1319:1994 Safety signs for the occupational environment — AS 1319 specifies requirements for the design and use of safety signs intended for the occupational environment.

Before ordering
- Confirm the hazards, tasks and people covered by the site PPE requirement.
- Approve every PPE pictogram and the exact mandatory legend before manufacture.

Frequently asked questions
What does a PPE Must Be Worn sign communicate?
It tells workers, contractors and visitors that the personal protective equipment shown on the approved sign must be worn before entering or working in the identified area. The final symbols and legend are still being prepared, so the placeholder on this page is not the production artwork.
Where should the PPE sign be installed?
Place it at the normal entry or approach where people can read the complete instruction before reaching the area in which the PPE is required. Repeat the instruction at separate access points where one sign cannot be seen from every approach.
Does the sign decide which PPE is required?
No. The workplace risk assessment and responsible people must select suitable PPE for the hazard, task and wearer. Approve every pictogram and the exact legend before manufacture so the sign matches that decision.
Does a PPE sign replace other risk controls or training?
No. A sign supports the instruction but does not remove or isolate the hazard, provide PPE, confirm correct fit or compatibility, train a worker, supervise use or replace reasonably practicable higher-order controls.
Which material and size should I choose?
Polypropylene is the default rigid option. Self-adhesive vinyl is supplied in packs of three for a suitable smooth surface, 3 mm Corflute suits temporary site use, and Colorbond steel provides a stronger mechanically fixed face. Choose 600 × 450 mm or 900 × 600 mm using the actual approach, mounting surface, lighting and surrounding visual clutter.
What volume discounts apply?
Automatic volume pricing is 5–9 signs: 8% off, 10–24 signs: 15% off, 25–49 signs: 24% off, 50–99 signs: 32% off, 100+ signs: 40% off. The configurator is the source of truth and updates the unit price as quantity changes.
