Danger Highly Flammable Material Reflective Signs
A Danger Highly Flammable Material Reflective Sign warns you, staff and contractors that combustible materials are present. Use it around stores, yards, plant rooms and fuel handling points where reflective visibility helps reduce ignition risk.
Where This Reflective Flammable Material Sign Should Be Fitted
You should install this sign at entrances to flammable material stores, fuel handling points, plant rooms, workshops, external compounds and fenced storage areas so people see the warning before they carry out hot work, smoke, park vehicles or use ignition sources nearby.
Practical Viewing Distance Guidance
Use viewing distance as a placement check, not guesswork. A 300 x 250mm reflective sign is best for close-to-medium hazard approaches; repeat signs where people approach from more than one direction.
| Sign size | Typical viewing range | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| 300 x 250mm | Up to 10 metres | Doors, stores, compounds |
| Larger repeated signs | 10–20 metres | Yards, gates, vehicle approaches |

✅ Position it before the risk point, not only beside the stored materials
✅ Repeat it on gates, doors and fence lines where access routes split
✅ Keep the reflective face clean so low-light visibility remains effective
