PPE Safety Signs
PPE Safety Signs with next day delivery available from Key Signs UK, the leading manufacturer, supplier and one stop destination for all of your safety sign needs.
What is PPE and PPE safety signage?
Personal protective equipment (PPE) are required by law in the UK. They refer to any item worn by workers to avoid accidents and injury from specific risks associated with their job. For example, helmets for head protection, safety goggles for eye protection and ear defenders for ear protection.
Wearing PPE is essential in workplaces such as construction sites, manufacturing facilities, laboratories, hospitals, catering, factories and warehouses.
Mandatory ppe safety signs clearly inform and instruct workers and visitors on what safety equipment and safety clothing is required and must be worn on site.
At Key Signs UK, we have an extensive range of ppe safety signs and also offer custom made ppe signs.
Our Personal Protective Equipment signs are fully compliant with BS EN ISO7010 standards and UK regulations, to help maintain a safe, compliant and efficient workplace.
Manufactured in the UK, our signs are available in a range of sizes and made from quality materials including; self adhesive vinyl, 1mm rigid plastic, 3mm plastic and 3mm aluminium composite. This ensures their durability and suitability for both indoor and outdoor environments.
Help reduce risks and safeguard your employees, visitors and business operations with our safety signs.
Why Display PPE Signs In Your Workplace?
The management of premises and operations is resonsible for enforcing the use of PPE where appropriate, such as high visibility workwear and head protection. While training and policy should ensure employees are aware of these practices, appropriate signage is crucial to reinforce the message.
Our PPE safety signs are clear visual reminders to workers and visitors, ensuring they are adequately protected and properly dressed when working in potentially hazardous areas. This helps maintain health and safety compliance and reduces the risk of workplace injuries.
Safety clothing PPE signs are mandatory signs that provide clear and concise messages about the appropriate protective clothing or equipment for specific areas.
Our range of PPE safety signs caters to various industries and environments, from construction sites and factories to kitchen and laboratories, covering a diverse range of subjects from footwear to ear protection.
What Types Of PPE Signs Are Available?
PPE signs are designed to promote workplace safety and compliance. These signs serve as vital reminders for employees and visitors to wear the required personal protective equipment in hazardous areas.
At Key Signs UK we offer an extensive range including;
Eye protection must be worn signs. Displayed to inform that eye protection must be worn. This is to help protect persons eyes against flying objects, particles and chemical splashes. Ideal for construction sites, manufacturing, distribution, laboratories and workshops.
Ear protection must be worn signs. Displayed in areas where there are noise hazards such as constructions sites, manufacturing and factory facilities, agriculture and forestry work where there is loud machinery.
Safety helmets must be worn signs. Inform that head protection is required to be worn on site, by displaying our wear head protection safety signs. These hard hat safety signs instruct persons to wear safety helmets. Locate in areas where there are potential hazards such as objects falling on the head, or potential head striking objects.
High visibility clothing must be worn signs. Display to inform that high visibility clothing must be worn to be seen in low visibility conditions. Ideal for construction sites, warehouses and in areas that have moving vehicles or equipment.
Face protection must be worn signs such as respirators, welding masks and face shields.
Where Should PPE Signs Be Located?
To reduce workplace risks, personal protective equipment (PPE) signs must be located in the area of the hazard it refers to. However, many PPE signs are also installed at the site entrance or visitor office to ensure that no one enters the site without the correct personal protective equipment. This is to comply with health and safety requirements.
Safety clothing signs should be displayed at all entrances and access points to areas with specific clothing and equipment requirements, and within these areas to ensure employees and visitors remain aware of the need to wear or use these safety precautions when within the zone of potential risk.
Signs should be mounted in a visible position at eye level so they are easily visible, and multiple signs may be necessary to ensure they are seen by persons approching from any direction. Furthermore, display in well-lit areas to maximise visibility.

What PPE Signs Do I Need?
The type of business you operate and business practices will influence what ppe safety signs are required for your premises. Health and safety legislation may require you to ensure that safety clothing and equipment are used, so it's important to familiarise yourself with the requirements before installing signage to ensure its effectiveness.
Before ordering PPE safety signs, consider the equipment staff and visitors are expected to wear on your premises. Create a list by area and ensure you have signage for each piece of equipment and clothing required.
