Description
Mandatory AS 2416 prohibition sign for commercial pools, aquatic centres, and resort pool decks, enforcing the no-glass rule across water and deck areas. The red annulus with diagonal slash over a glass pictogram, combined with clear text "NO GLASS ALLOWED IN POOL AREA", aligns with Royal Life Saving Australia's Guidelines for Safe Pool Operation (GSPO) and state health-department licensing requirements. Broken glass in water forces immediate pool evacuation and drain-down—a costly and safety-critical incident. Available in polypropylene, colorbond, or self-adhesive vinyl across three sizes (225×300 mm to 450×600 mm). Vinyl suits pool-house glass doors and splash zones; rigid materials work for gate and deck mounting. Lamination and pre-drilled holes are available. Trade accounts receive bulk pricing. Australia-wide delivery; contact us for multi-facility quotes.
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 GSPO compliance important?
Royal Life Saving Australia's Guidelines for Safe Pool Operation is the industry standard for commercial aquatic facilities; Victoria's Public Health & Wellbeing Regulations 2019 explicitly enforce GSPO-aligned signage, and other states enforce via health-department licensing audits.
Where should I use the vinyl option?
Self-adhesive vinyl suits pool-house glass doors, change-room windows, and splash zones where a rigid sign would obstruct sightlines or create a safety hazard. Apply to clean, dry glass above 10°C.
What size do I need for a typical pool deck?
Available sizes are 225 x 300mm (Small), 300 x 450mm (Medium), 450 x 600mm (Large). Viewing-distance notes are a practical selection aid, not a substitute for checking the approach distance, lighting, mounting position, wording and site risk assessment.
How long does vinyl last on glass?
Self-adhesive vinyl typically lasts 3–5 years on clean glass exposed to pool chemicals and UV; periodic cleaning extends life, and adhesion may degrade in direct splash zones.
Do you offer multi-site bulk pricing?
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.
Can I laminate the polypropylene version?
Yes — lamination protects against chlorine splash and UV fading, extending the sign's life by 2–3 years in high-chemical pool environments.
