Frequently asked questions
Where should I position this sign in a battery charging room?
Mount at eye level (1.5 m) at every entrance to the charging area, and adjacent to battery banks or charger units. AS 1319 requires signs to be visible before personnel enter the hazard zone.
What causes battery explosion, and why is this sign critical?
Lead-acid and lithium batteries release hydrogen and oxygen gases during charging. Sparks, flames, or hot surfaces can ignite these gases, causing violent explosions. This sign prevents ignition sources and saves lives.
Is lamination worth the extra cost?
Yes, especially in damp or chemical-heavy environments. Lamination protects against moisture, spillage, and UV degradation, extending sign life by 50% or more and maintaining legibility.
Can I order custom text or add facility-specific warnings?
We offer custom printing on corflute and polypropylene. Contact our team with your specifications; custom runs typically ship within 10 business days.
What's the typical lifespan of these signs?
Corflute lasts 2–3 years indoors; Colorbond 5–7 years outdoors; polypropylene 3–5 years in mixed conditions. Lamination and reflective coatings add durability. Replace when text fades below legibility.
