Description
Asbestos Above Ceiling Authorised Access Only signs mark areas containing asbestos-containing materials and restrict entry to trained personnel. Compliance with AS 1319 is mandatory in facilities built before the 2003 ban. Platinum Signs produces these in colorbond and polypropylene across three sizes, with optional reflective and laminated finishes. We hold stock for rapid dispatch and support bulk orders for renovation and remediation projects.
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 is this sign legally required?
Under workplace health and safety legislation, any area containing asbestos must be clearly marked to prevent unauthorised access and accidental disturbance. AS 1319 specifies the warning format.
What size should I use for ceiling access points?
Available sizes are 300 x 225mm, 450 x 300mm, 600 x 400mm. Viewing-distance notes are a practical selection aid, not a substitute for checking the approach distance, lighting, mounting position, wording and site risk assessment.
Is colorbond or polypropylene better for humid plant rooms?
Colorbond handles moisture and temperature swings better over time. Polypropylene is cost-effective for temporary or short-term installations in controlled indoor spaces.
Can you supply these with lamination for extra durability?
Yes. Lamination protects against scratches, UV, and chemical splashes, extending sign life in industrial environments. It's available as an add-on option.
What's the turnaround for a large remediation project?
Trade customers with advance notice typically receive bulk orders within 7–10 working days. Contact us with your project timeline and quantity for priority scheduling.
