Hazardous substance signage is the first warning to emergency services, visitors, and workers that hazardous or dangerous substances are on site. It provides clear, concise, vital information, including the type of hazard, what to do in an emergency, and protection and precautionary measures.
pH7’s HAZCHEM signage is specifically designed to communicate potential chemical hazards, helping to protect employees and visitors in hazardous environments.
Different HAZCHEM signs should be located at key points on your site. They should be visible and display all necessary information to allow people to approach the site or area with care.
Whether you need signage for your entrances, gates, buildings, or tanks, we can help. We also offer a wide range of HAZCHEM diamonds, dangerous goods labels, and stickers for use when shipping goods. All our signs are manufactured using UV-resistant ink offering outstanding durability even in the harshest conditions.
HAZCHEM signs are available in a range of materials, including Self Adhesive Vinyl Sticker (SAV), Plastic (PVC) or Aluminium Composite (ACM), and come in a range of sizes.
