Pictogram sign Mandatory use of safety footwear COFAN

The obligation sign consists of a white pictogram representing a pair of safety boots. The sign indicates the mandatory use of boots for workers and users in industries such as clothing, factories, mechanics and automotive. It is in these types of places where special protection of users is required, while the obligation sign will prevent users from entering these places with the wrong type of footwear, which could create risks on the work sites.

Specifically, the sign means that it is necessary to wear protective footwear to enter that area or perform that activity, in order to prevent foot injury. In general, in work areas such as construction sites or factories, there is a high risk of conventional footwear coming into contact with chemicals or corrosive substances.

This sign is usually used in spaces and establishments where the use of this Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is required for the safety of workers and users. We often find these types of signs installed in lighted areas that are easy to see.

Among the most common technical characteristics of UV SEKURECO obligation signs are:

• Form: it's usually a circle with a blue border and a white pictogram representing a pair of boots.
• Size: this may vary depending on the size and location of the work area.
• Colours: security signals use specific colors to communicate their message. Blue is commonly used to indicate that personal protective equipment is compulsory.
• The material: safety signs may be made of different materials, such as plastic, aluminium or vinyl sticker. The material used will depend on the location and environment in which the signal will be placed. For example, if the signal is placed in an area where there is a lot of dust or moisture, it is advisable to use a material resistant to these conditions.

THE FOLLOWING POINT IS INSERTED:

The signs of GLASSPACK of 0,7 mm consist of a semi-rigid polymer base (PVC) with a bright white finish to which color coating and protection is applied by screen printing techniques.

Our products are Non-toxic, non-radioactive, non-combustible and resistant to aging.

• SUPPORT: A glass pack of 0,7 mm (semi-rigid PVC) of a bright white colour.
• COLOUR COATING: for use in the manufacture of products falling within heading No 8542:. Colour black, green, red, blue, yellow, orange depending on the signal type. BRIGHT FINISH, PROTECTION OF THE SIGNAL AGAINST UV RAYS.

ADHESIVE PVC SIGN (STICK)

The signs are manufactured on a self-adhesive white gloss calendered monomeric vinyl sheet.

Color coating is applied using serigraphic techniques.

The adhesive is protected against inclement weather by a glossy transparent calendered laminate.

Our products are Non-toxic, non-radioactive, non-combustible and resistant to aging.

Description of the vehicle:

COLOURED LAYER INKS

Colour coating (as required by the signal) by means of multi-use UV cured screen inks on various plastics.

These are brightly finished inks, whose mixture of compounds and radiated curing method give them excellent elasticity and reactivity, not only in overprinting but also in bending and die-cutting.

Mixtures of oligomers, monomers, photoinitiators and pigments.

Ink contains the following dangerous elements:

• Hexametylene diacrylate

INSTALLATION / LOCATION / PLACEMENT OF SIGNAL

Check our blog to learn how to install a sign or sign: https://www.sekureco.eu/blog/76_consejos-de-instalacion-de-senales-de-seguridad.html

To properly place an obligation sign indicating that gloves are compulsory, it is important to ensure that it is clearly visible to people entering the work area. It is recommended to place the signal at eye level and in a place where it cannot be obstructed by other objects or signals.

The FIXED the signalling element must be placed on a firm surface free from dirt.

The signal may be secured by: MECHANICAL COMPONENTS (screws, rivets, etc.) or ADHESIVES (mounting adhesive, glues, silicones, etc.) carefully, avoiding dirt on the visible surface or deformation of the surface.

MAINTENANCE AND RECOMMENDATIONS

In order to preserve the functionality for which the signalling systems have been designed, SEKURECO recommends that signals be kept free from dust, dirt or any residue or object that prevents their visibility and identification.

For cleaning it is advisable to use soapy solutions preferably, avoiding the use of solvents or abrasive products that may damage the surface of the signal.

The working temperature shall not exceed 45 °C. Higher temperatures may deform the support material.
