Description
The High Surf Picto (Compact) delivers AS 2416.1-compliant warning without text, making it ideal for multilingual environments and heritage-listed coastal zones where signage restraint matters. The yellow triangle with breaking-surf symbol meets ISO pictogram standards and carries the same legal weight as full-legend versions. At 450×600 mm, this compact format works perfectly as a secondary marker alongside a primary full-legend sign, reducing material costs on repeat installations along extended coastlines. Choose polypropylene for temporary seasonal use or aluminium for permanent exposure to salt spray and UV. Platinum Signs delivers Australia-wide within 5–7 business days. Trade accounts enjoy bulk discounts on 10+ units; customisation and hole-drilling included at no extra charge.
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
Is a pictogram-only sign legally compliant on its own?
Yes — AS/NZS 2416.1 pictograms are ISO-registered and meet legal compliance requirements independently. They're especially valuable at international beaches, airports, and multilingual zones where text-only signage may exclude visitors.
What's the difference between polypropylene and aluminium for this size?
Polypropylene (1.6 mm) is lightweight, affordable, and suitable for seasonal or temporary deployment; it flexes slightly but resists UV. Aluminium is rigid, marine-grade, and better for permanent coastal installations where salt spray and wind loading are factors.
Can holes be added for mounting?
Yes — pre-drilled holes for cable ties, bolts, or wall anchors are included at no extra cost. Specify your preferred hole size and position at checkout.
Do you offer bulk pricing for multiple units?
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.
How quickly can you deliver?
Standard Australia-wide delivery is 5–7 business days. Express options (2–3 days) are available for urgent coastal deployments — request at checkout.
