Danger Highly Flammable Material Signs help you warn staff, contractors and visitors in fuel, chemical and storage areas, reducing ignition-risk confusion before work starts
Danger Highly Flammable Material Signs warn you where fuels, solvents, aerosols or chemical products could ignite. They help staff, contractors and visitors recognise W021 flammable risk before entering stores, plant rooms, workshops or external storage areas.
Where Danger Highly Flammable Material Signs Should Be Installed
Install these signs at entrances to flammable stores, fuel handling points, chemical cupboards, workshops, plant rooms and external cages. Position them before the hazard so you give people time to stop, remove ignition sources and follow your controls.
Practical Viewing Distance Guidance
Choose a size that matches how early you need the warning seen. Small signs suit close-range cupboards, while larger signs work better on stores, gates and access routes where people approach from several metres away.
| Sign size | Best viewing use | Practical distance |
|---|---|---|
| H 100 x W 250 mm | Close-range storage doors | Up to 3 metres |
| H 297 x W 210 mm | Workshops and access points | Up to 8 metres |
| H 420 x W 297 mm | External stores and wider approaches | Up to 12 metres |
