Applications for the EOS507 flammable material sign

The EOS507 sign can be installed near a flammable product cabinet, technical room, workshop, garage, warehouse, maintenance area or station where flammable materials are used or stored according to site procedures. It helps remind users that the area must be approached with caution and that ignition sources must be controlled.

Material choice for a Flammable Material 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, at entrances, in workshops, docks and areas where impact is possible. UV-protecting lamination may slow fading, without preventing it permanently.
