Environmental Protection in 2023

As the days draw closer, and we move towards the end of October and the changing of the clocks, it might be a good time to reflect on safety signs. With reduced visibility, it is logical to make any notices more easily seen.

Fortuitously, we have a bumper range of safety signs and labels for almost every occasion. For the rare times that we do not have the exact sign, we can produce it in a few days in a variety of materials. Signs are generally rigid so that they can be fixed with screws or self-adhesive for sticking on many different surfaces. As well as the standard models, we can also supply magnetic backed signs, mainly for vehicles, but they can be used anywhere such as metal sheds and racking systems.

Most of the signs are in stock and can be with you in a few days. Custom safety signs can take up to a week. Please see the main categories shown below. Contact Merlin Industrial Products with any questions that you may have.
