The Ultimate Guide to Fire Safety Signs

Ensuring your workplace is equipped with the correct fire safety signage is not just a legal requirement—it's a critical safety measure that saves lives.

Why ISO 7010 Matters

ISO 7010 is the international standard for safety symbols. It ensures that safety signs are easily recognizable regardless of language or culture.

Key Categories

1. Fire Exits: Green and white, indicating safe escape routes.
2. Fire Equipment: Red and white, locating extinguishers and alarms.
3. Mandatory Actions: Blue and white, e.g., "Fire Door Keep Shut".

Placement Tips

• Eye Level: Signs should be placed 1.5m to 2m from the floor.
• Visibility: Ensure signs are not obstructed by furniture or decorations.
• Lighting: Emergency routes must be lit, and photoluminescent signs are recommended.
