Manufacturing & Warehouse Evacuation Maps
Trusted Suppliers for Americas Largest Facilities
When developing building evacuation maps for a warehouse or manufacturing facility, consideration must be given not only to your "safety message" but also to the floor plan scale, sign size and sign material.
Good sign design does make a difference. Fire evacuation diagrams requiring a full floor plan layout should be paired with suitable signage. Legibility issues arise when large scale floor plan are reduced to fit a small art board size. A basic building evacuation diagram must accommodate a legend (map key), written safety instructions, sign header; all of which should be presented with legible text and uncluttered layout for maximum effect.
For environments requireing durable signage, we developed the AC placard where safety graphics are printed sub-surface to acrylic and sealed with a PVC backer to provide hermetically sealed artwork. Industry tested and highly durable, the AC placard is water proof and scratch resitant and ideally suited for production environments. And if sign visibillity or legibility is an issue, we offer wide format prints up to 3 feet x 4 feet!.
Selecting the right sign for your manufacturing facility should be based on your environmental, durability and maintenance requirements.
As with all sign projects, consideration should be given to the sign location, material durability and your maintenance requirements. For example, signs placed in food a processing facility, with high humidity and a wash-down maintenance program, should be water waterproof and fastened with Stand-Off mounting hardware to allow for simplified maintenance for mold/bacteria development.
