Applications for the EOAV317 smoke-free instruction sign

The EOAV317 sign can be installed at an entrance, near reception, in a corridor, near a common room, in a workshop, in a warehouse or close to an area where the prohibition must be reinforced. It suits commercial, industrial, institutional or municipal environments that want to display a firmer instruction than a simple smoke-free notice.

Material choice for a no-smoking sign

Choosing a sign depends on the right material, reading distance, work environment and required format. Self-adhesive vinyl is suited to clean, smooth and dry surfaces, especially indoors or in a protected location. Plastic can be used indoors or outdoors, but colours may fade faster if the sign is exposed to UV light. Aluminum is often recommended outdoors, in workshops or in areas where impact is possible. UV-protecting lamination may slow fading, without preventing it permanently.
