Hand Protection Signs

Our range of Hand protection signs plays a vital role in maintaining workplace safety and compliance. In industrial environments where chemicals and machines pose constant threats, they serve as a compelling reminder to staff and visitors that protective equipment must be worn when working on site. 

Hand Protection Mandatory Signs Regulatory Requirements

In the UK, the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 require businesses and organisations to mandate safety signage where workplace hazards and risks cannot be mitigated by other means. 

Commonly used in manufacturing, construction, engineering, warehouses, laboratories, and maintenance areas, our hand protection must be worn signs help businesses demonstrate their compliance with these regulations, allowing you to defend your position should a legal challenge ever occur. 

Application and Typical Use Cases

Hand protection required signs are used in a wide variety of industries. They are usually affixed near entrances to hazardous working environments. This includes entrances to work zones, production lines, machinery areas, chemical storage points, and maintenance access points. They can be affixed to fences, walls, gates or posts. For the best results, they should be displayed as close to eye level as possible. 

Signage Material Options

We offer several signage material options, ensuring we have the right material for each application. Choosing the right material depends on where the sign will be installed and how long it needs to last. Here’s a brief overview of the options available: 

Self-Adhesive Vinyl

Our most budget-friendly option, self-adhesive vinyl is best used on smooth indoor surfaces such as walls, doors or machinery. They are super easy to apply and come equipped with a hi-tack adhesive for secure bonding. 

Plastic Rigid Plastic

Our most affordable board option, our Plastic Rigid Boards, are primed for indoor or sheltered outdoor conditions. They are lightweight yet highly durable; however, they don’t hold up well when exposed directly to the weather. 

Lightweight yet durable, making it suitable for both indoor use and sheltered outdoor areas. A good all-round option for general hand protection mandatory signs.

PVC Foamex

A more premium option to Plastic Rigid Board, our PVC Foamex boards are our most popular signage offering. Incredibly versatile, they can be used indoors or outdoors and last 3-5 years indoors.

Aluminium Dibond

Aluminium Dibond is our most premium sign board offering available. Exceptionally durable, they are entirely immune to outdoor conditions and last up to a decade indoors or outdoors. A great option for use in demanding work environments.
