Frequently asked
Is this sign suitable for indoor and outdoor use?
Yes. Aluminium and Colorbond handle outdoor weather well; polypropylene works indoors. Lamination adds UV and moisture resistance to any substrate.
How much text can I fit on the portrait format?
Text capacity depends on font size and sign dimensions. Larger signs (600×900 mm) accommodate more lines. Our design team will advise during the quote process.
What if I need the sign in a non-standard size?
The appropriate safety-sign category, wording, placement and supporting controls depend on the product purpose, site risk and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with your WHS adviser or regulator; a sign alone does not discharge WHS duties.
Are delivery times the same for all materials?
Standard delivery is 5–7 working days for all materials. Rush options may be available; ask during checkout or call for expedited arrangements.
Can I laminate just one side of the sign?
Yes. Specify your lamination preference (front, back, or both) at checkout. Single-side lamination is useful when the reverse will be mounted against a wall.
